In general, gifted adults need recognition, space and acceptance. Recognition that our brains work differently, space to let them do that work, and acceptance of both that process and the results of that process. That probably sounds annoyingly vague, so in this video I'm going to break this down into ten very specific things that gifted adults need to be happy.

I am a brazilian gifted, and since there are no more videos in Portuguese about this topic, I am watching in English and French now, and everyday I find out something new. Watching this video I discovered why I love languages which are completely different from my native one (Portuguese): I like them because they are difficult to learn, such as German, Yoruba, Russian, Japanese and Arabian. On the other hand, languages such as Spanish, which shares about 96% of vocabulary in Portuguese, never atracted me.

Thank you for making these videos! I feel so seen and less crazy knowing that I'm not weird or strange, I'm just gifted! I'm going to try to use this info to provide new challenges and opportunities to create so that I don't feel as stuck in a rut and unhappy in life. Thank you!!

I’m really excited about this channel! Please keep it up! If you wouldn’t mind a little constructive feedback, I would offer two suggestions: 1. The magic wand noise gets irritating quickly. I love your titles, but it could do without the sound. 2. I almost didn’t watch your videos because you have kids in the thumbnails and I’m looking for adult content. I would suggest using adults for your thumbnails so as to capture your target audience. Believe me-we are out here dying for content for us and not just kids! Thank you so much for what you are offering! I look forward to more!

8:22 UGHHHH, I literally incited what my previous coworkers ended up calling “The HR Revolution” because of this exact scenario. It’s soooo relieving to hear this said as having happened to someone else who’s gifted. And yes, the number of times something similar has happened is abundant.

lol when you got to creativity, it made me think, maybe that’s why I’ve been obsessed about D&D and role playing game systems lately. And then you specifically mentioned D&D

My brother is in GT and he has been OBSESSED with DnD. He created a D&D club at our college and is always thinking about this stuff. So cool!

Excellent content.We need more studies and information about this subject.The profoundly gifted adult who don't had "discover" in childhood tend to live a life o chaos and mental illness.We suffer a lot in silence.The research that we have today is insufficient and the lives and talent are wasted.Thanks very much.

What is your take on the true differences between an intelligent low support needs Autistic vs a gifted individual? They sound eerily similar in a lot of cases

@ThriveMindGiftedCoaching 3 ай бұрын

There is definitely some overlap, but I think the difference is in the strength of the "harder to manage" behaviors. A gifted person might have SOME executive function difficulties, but an autistic person would have MORE executive function difficulties that have more of an impact on their daily lives. There are a lot of similar examples (difficulty with social interaction, sensory sensitivities, etc) and in each case, the common behaviors differ in intensity in a gifted person vs an autistic person. It's the whole "spectrum" thing -- people can have certain behaviors to a greater or lesser degree, just like someone can be a little afraid of heights and someone else can be terrified of heights. Your thoughts?

@norakatz-rhoads390 Ай бұрын

Highly gifted family = group two members of my group are now and then self diagnosing themselves as autistic. They are failing to see that their autistic condition fades when they become a absorbed by a complex life challenge. I wish they could avoid giving themselves a sad diagnosis but it does make sense being gifted is constant work. Good to have this space to be grumpy.😅

I'm 56 and completely shut down, and there are no therapists who specialize in treated the gifted in my state (and as we know, traditional therapy is wholly inappropriate for the gifted, leading to misdiagnoses, being invalidated, and even more problems.)

@@ThriveMindGiftedCoachingand a note: Thank you soooo much for focusing on us gifted adults! 😭🙌🏽 Though not outrageously abundant, there is comparatively a colossal amount of information on gifted children, and very little on gifted adults. And at least 3/4th’s of the gifted children information is academia focused, which is soooo not relevant to me or many other gifted adults. Especially us reaching or beyond our 30’s and who no longer are in any kind of schooling. And honestly, it wasn’t relevant to me even when I was in school. So thank you for picking up on this need and filling this niche in current information. I have been furiously diving into gifted research and content for 2 years now - becoming an advocate for identification and realization - and though I’ve found sooooo much information, soooo much of it just doesn’t quite hit the mark. But this is exactly what I’ve been looking for. Every video of yours so far is a banger 🙌🏽🔥

What happens when you can’t find people who get you?

@ThriveMindGiftedCoaching 3 күн бұрын

You may end up lonely, isolated, frustrated and burned out, but there are a few coping strategies you can use. Look for gifted communities online, and search for special-interest groups in your area that might attract other gifted folks (ie: philosophy clubs, gaming groups, literary salons, etc).
