Sensory Sensitivity

This blog post explores the essence of serial entrepreneurship, highlighting key strategies, lessons, and reflections that can inspire aspiring entrepreneurs to navigate their own paths with confidence.

Just before age two, our daughter Phoebe was diagnosed with autism, ADHD, and epilepsy. Rather than focusing on deficits, we chose to see her neurological differences as unique strengths requiring support, not correction. Over 20 years, we prioritized accommodations, personalized technologies, and inclusive education, enabling Phoebe to thrive academically and socially. Today, she is completing her first year of college, confidently embracing her neurodivergent identity.

This blog post explores why sensory sensitivity matters—not just for neurodivergent individuals but for society as a whole—and offers actionable strategies for creating environments where everyone can thrive.

My journey from music to neuroscience has shown me that the most profound innovations often arise at the intersection of seemingly disparate fields. By embracing this intersectionality and fostering collaboration across disciplines, we can unlock new possibilities for human empowerment and create a brighter future for all.
