Adult ADHD ADD Tips and Support Podcast – A Podcast for Neurodivergent Creatives. ADHD, Creative Minds & The Antidote to School Trauma: Revolutionizing Education with Demetrius Fuller. This podcast is an audio companion to the book “ The Drummer and the Great Mountain – A Guidebook to Transforming Adult ADD / ADHD .” In this episode, we’re joined by pioneering educator and art teacher Demetrius Fuller. We explore his groundbreaking educational framework entitled “The HOMies,” a neurodiversity-friendly approach to classroom learning based on the Harvard’s Studio Habits of Mind . In our discussion, we unpack the shame and trauma often experienced by neurodivergent students, and the importance of having an alternative education framework that supports self-esteem, embraces unique learning styles, and can successfully integrate into the mainstream public school system. Demetrius introduces the HOMie characters, and how each represents a specific aspect of learning. He also discusses how this framework is currently being implemented into his school in Chelsea, Massachusetts.
