This podcast is hosted by myself, Dr. Matt Zakreski, a clinical psychologist and speaker, alongside our co-host and producer Jake Noonan, an educational coach and humanities teacher. We are here to leverage our personal and professional experiences as neurodivergent specialists to inform and entertain the world around us. And, since we can’t do that on our own, we’ve collected an incredible group of professionals from all walks of life who use their time and talent to support the neurodivergent community. When we know more, we do better, and the goal of the #NooN podcast is to provide our listeners with as much information as possible to make your lives better. Because, as Dr. Matt always says, we can’t always make your lives EASY, but we can make them EASIER – and that is just as important! If you’re neurodivergent, someone who loves a neurodivergent person, or works with neurodivergent people, then Nerding out on Neurodiversity is the show for you. Come on this journey with us! We’ll laugh, cry, learn, and make obscure nerdy pop culture references, we’ll have fun – we promise!Copyright 2025 Ciencias Sociales Higiene y Vida Saludable Psicología Psicología y Salud Mental

    Ep 36 -- Kathryn Morris, the Savant of all Savants
    Nov 11 2025
    This episode we have the immense pleasure and privilege to speak to Kathryn Morris, the CEO and founder of The Savants! Kathryn's inspirational journey shifted her out of the professional acting scene into that of a mother to two twins with an autism diagnosis. Through her experience raising her kids, Kathryn started The Savants as a place to help support any and all parents on the neurodiverse journey -- and we know that Kathryn does absolutely incredible work! We love that Kathryn's journey has allowed us to meet, share stories, and genuinely connect 🥳 We loved our time with Kathryn and know you will, too! It was incredible getting to talk with Kathryn and hear about her experience as a mother and as a well known actress -- Cold Case, anyone? It's amazing to hear how Kathryn took a fear of hers and changed her perspective to see it instead as a joyful adventure. Kathryn's expertise and curiosity lead her to truly be at the forefront of neurodiversity advocacy and awareness. Thank you for your time, wisdom, and joys, Kathryn! We are so appreciative of you, The Savants, our ongoing partnership, and all you offer the world! 🥳🎉 -- What if we all pushed things forward? -- Kathryn Morris can be found at The Savants as well as on her Instagram and LinkedIn as well as The Savants' Instagram!

    This episode we were lucky enough to speak with Dr. Jen Rafferty! The founder of Empowered Educator -- something positive from the COVID pandemic! -- Jen is committed to transforming how educators show up for themselves and for their students and school communities. Her work focuses on genuinely supporting educators with the aim of prioritizing social-emotional learning and deep self-reflection. We also love how invested Dr. Jen Rafferty is in the world of research and implementation! We loved our time with Jen and know you will, too! Being able to explore all of the complications surrounding education was so refreshing. Jen's expertise and understanding of the broad 'brokenness' within the education system set the foundation for much of our conversation. Asking questions and being curious are so critical.

We loved our time together with Sarah and Ellie and we know you will as well! It's no wonder they are such successful partners and educators -- their combined energy is electric and inspiring. Hearing their stories, as well as Kevin Love's, was meaningful and moving. Thank you, Sarah and Ellie, for your time, care, and excitement! 🥳🎉 Also, that Spiderman lesson plan?
