Pt 1 - TCKs & NEURODIVERSITY: A Conversation with Jenilee Goodwin

<p>Thank you, friends, for clicking on this episode of the <strong>Pondering Purple</strong> podcast, a source of information, insight and inspiration for those who <strong>love</strong> MKs and those who <strong>are</strong> MKs.</p><p>In this first segment of the series on <em>TCKs and Neurodiversity</em>, we meet <strong>Jenilee Goodwin</strong> - mom to three neurodivergent young-adult children, former missionary, and Life Coach. She is a clear voice of knowledge and compassion regarding this too-often overlooked and misunderstood segment of the TCK population. </p><p>This interview was full of aha moments for me, and I know it will be for you too.
