What's it like to be adult and gifted???

The Listener wants to know!

This is a question that’s very rarely asked. We’re copying in below this request from journalist Paulette Crowley. If this hat fits you, she’d love to hear from you!

Hello, I’m a journalist writing for the NZ Listener and I’d like to speak to an adult who is gifted for a column called What it's like to live with [... in this case, being gifted].

The way the column works is, I interview the person about their experience of living with giftedness, and write up the story using their words (in the first person). The person then gets to check the article before publication. The person will need to be happy to share their identity and provide a photo for publication.

My background is as a journalist with 30 years experience and a neurodiverse and 2E background. I am also a mental health coach, just to keep things interesting!

I am happy to answer any questions and can be reached at paulette.crowley@gmail.com.
