The Strength of my Limitations with Guest Science Reporter and Author, Sadie Dingfelder

  1. The Strength of my Limitations with Guest Science Reporter and Author, Sadie Dingfelder 28:57

This is a story of a woman who didn’t realize she had neurological conditions that were perhaps altering her abilities until she was in her forties. You ask how is that possible? Well, Sadie thought that everyone was just like her. She assumed everyone else’s brain worked just like hers. Her biggest cheerleader was her grandmother, who since Sadie was a little girl, has catalogued everything her granddaughter has written or drawn.  Adele says of her grandmother “she is perfect and just brimming with fantastic folksy Wisdom.”

“Do I Know You, A Faceblind Reporter’s Journey into the Science of Sight, Memory, and Imagination,”  is Sadie’s recently released book and there’s a wealth of information for anyone who thinks perhaps they are alone in the discovery of being neurodivergent. Scientists believe that these types of  conditions may actually give you an edge as an artist.

One of the many gifts of  having a poor memory, Sadie mentioned, is that she lives in the moment.   Her grandmother “felt comforted by her self expression and it helped her make  meaning out of the chaos of life,”  according to my guest.

Sadie has a condition call SDAM, which stands for-SEVERELY DEFFICIENT AUTOBIOGRAPHICAL MEMORY.

“Should Have Listened To My Mother” is an ongoing conversation about mothers/female role models and the roles they play in our lives. Jackie’s guests were open and hones and  answer the question, are you who you are today because of, or in spite of, your mother and so much more. You’ll be amazed at what the responses are.
