Review Quotes: "Immersed in connectedness, compassion, and comedy, Catherine's workbook constructs a home for those of us not fully encompassing the 'young, hyperactive male with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)' label. Her warm, informative, and nonjudgmental approach validates and brings real meaning to the experience of neurodivergence in this neurotypically facing world. Catherine, I cannot shout a loud-enough THANK YOU for creating something so many of us have so desperately needed, and not realized!"
