ADHD, Dyslexia & the Brain You Were Born With | Bryan Mark Rigg, PhD
About this episode
Jorie Houlihan interviews Bryan Mark Rigg, PhD about reframing perceptions of ADHD and dyslexia through historical and scientific lenses.
What if the brain you've spent your life fighting was never broken to begin with? In this episode, Jorie sits down with historian, researcher, and Yale graduate Bryan Mark Rigg, PhD - someone who has spent 25 years studying ADHD and dyslexia, not just in the lab, but in his own life, in his children's lives, and across thousands of years of human history. What he shares reframes the conversation entirely. This is not a "you're special" pep talk. It's grounded in evolutionary science, anthropological research, and the kind of historical evidence Bryan has built his career on. And it just might be the episode that changes how you see yourself. ─────────── CONNECT WITH BRYAN MARK RIGG, PhD: Website: https://www.bryanmarkrigg.com RESOURCES Conquering Learning Disabilities at Any Age — Bryan Mark Rigg: https://amzn.to/4xNYGoc Driven to Distraction — Ned Hallowell: https://amzn.to/4eooAaj Man's Search for Meaning — Viktor Frankl: https://amzn.to/43PtdnK Affiliate links above.
