The Outlier Mind: Flourishing with a Highly Gifted Brain OUT NOW!!
(also free with membership to The Joyful Outlier private community)

There is something so special and so relieving when gathered with people who actually get you. 

Most outliers move through life never feeling fully perceived and received, even when surrounded by loving family and friends.

This otherness has traveled with us since birth.

In this private Outlier Living group, you can really let your hair down, let your freak flag fly, be your weird, wild, wiggly self! We're here for it!

Bring your delusions of grandeur. 

Resuscitate the long-lost dreams you'd given up on ever harvesting.

This is one place where you won't be "too much."

People who are born with a highly gifted brain have what I call "outlier minds." 

There are various ways to define giftedness. Every human has gifts and it is vital that we uncover and live these gifts.

For our purposes, I am speaking of the specific brain type with which a small subset of the population is born. This outlier brain places you in the top 2% of intellectual and creative potential.

It cannot be learned or taught. It is a birth characteristic, like green eyes which, incidentally, are also seen in only about two percent of the population.

Like extraordinary athletic or musical ability, neurological giftedness cannot be taught, but it can be nurtured or suppressed.

What we crave most deeply is to fully experience clarity about our own true potential in this life and then witness ourselves contributing that potential to the whole.

When our gifts are not being optimally used and shared in a manner that allows them to be used as intended out in the world, we find this incredibly painful and frustrating.

This can be a deep existential pain which those around us don't understand and may find frustrating about us.

Life design for us has to be approached differently than for most people. It’s easy to spend years, decades - indeed, even one’s whole life - working hard to apply the common wisdom and research about effective life design for satisfaction, productivity, happiness, relationship richness, even health, and yet never fully achieve these goals.
