Description

A podcast born from clinical insight and lived experience. From invisible to undeniable: join us to explore the world of high-masking neurodivergent adults. In 2018, Clinical Psychologist - Lesley Taylor, Speech Therapist - Gail Kane and their patient - Alexandra Greening, came together in the clinic and found a startling gap: adult presentations of Autism, ADHD, and PDA, particularly in women, were poorly understood and poorly supported. Conversations that began as clinical follow-ups grew into long-term collaboration, transforming Alexandra from patient to peer - pooling academic, anthropological and epigenetic research with clinical practice and the sharp clarity of lived experience. We want to make the conversation LOUDER and we want you to join us! With an array of Guests, we explore the lived reality of people who mask extensively - including the cost to identity and mental health whilst access to diagnosis and understanding of neurodivergence remains problematic, and the systemic change needed across education, work and healthcare. We dispel myths and confront stereotypes that deny correct diagnosis and worsen the national mental health crisis, unemployment rates, and school to prison pipeline. This isn't for the 'minority' - this affects society as a whole, so we invite everyone to listen and take action with us.
