Having degrees, credentials, and accomplishments doesn't mean people will recognize your abilities or treat you fairly. I joined Tiffany Alexander on Unveiling Journeys #podcast to discuss ADHD, race, leadership, and my new book. 🎙️ youtu.be/C2oyB-LkgLY 📖 tinyurl.com/TooMuchAndNo... #author

I didn't realize OneTwoOne Cafe has Open Mic night the 2nd Thursday of every month. The owners asked if I would do a reading from Too Much and Not Enough. I guess it was my first verbal reading. It will be out Oct 20th. Tinyurl.com/TooMuchAndNotEnough #author #neurodivergence #leadership #misread

I received another endorsement for Too Much and Not Enough. This one hit me. Dr. Freeman A. Hrabowski III spent his career helping create pathways for Black scientists, PhDs, and physicians. So for him to see a strong message in this book means a lot. #author #endorsement

Three coffee shops. Three yeses. And no pitches. Just the owners seeing what I was doing. I jokingly asked about doing readings after Too Much and Not Enough is released (Oct 20). You never know where support will come from. #author #neurodivergence #coffeeshop #leadership

Dr. Charles Thomas was one of my mentors. He and Muriel are incredibly busy, so I didn't expect them to find time to read my entire book. But they did. Their endorsement included this: “The MISREAD framework is a lifesaver.” Too Much and Not Enough — Oct. 20. #neurodivergence #author

Carrying groceries without knowing you are #anaphylactic to fish, sets you on a path to having to monitor everything. This taught me to read all situations, people, and places, including corporate. Too Much and Not Enough will be released in October. #author #adhd #allergies #neurodivergence

That is a wrap on #bookformatting. At 6x9" layout, it comes in at 301 pages. Now fighting with ADP on it not accepting either of my accounts for royalties. Let's hope I get it resolved on Monday. Then back cover is left. #neurodivergence #author #misread #leadership #medicalbias #firstgen

It was an honor to go back to @michigantech.bsky.social and give the King-Chavez-Parks Visiting Professor Lecture on #stemcareers, #entrepreneurship, #nonprofits, and being an #author. I also touched on #neurodivergence. It is great to see cancer research and the students were great. #speaker

Started the first leg on my way to Michigan Tech being out of my apt at 6AM. Those United Airlines seats are tight. LGA to ORD. Flight left 30-45 minutes late, so that connection was anxiety inducing. #Speaker #stemcareers #airlines

Rule no. 1 in #NYC is always look where you are walking, standing, or trying to sit. And no open toed shoes. You could see this a mile away, yet one lady stood in it and spent 2 stops trying to wipe her foot on the bottom of the subway car. Then another guy stood in it. #saynotobrownstuff #subway
