Sometimes the hardest thing about being neurodivergent isn’t the challenges themselves, it’s the people who think they’re being helpful but really… aren’t.

In this episode, Nic and Kate talk about the red flags to look out for, from outdated language like “with autism” to tokenistic “neurodiversity light” initiatives, and the all-too-familiar superpower clichés. They share their own experiences of what actually feels supportive, what definitely doesn’t, and why good intentions aren’t enough without genuine understanding.

In this episode of Neurotypicals Don’t Juggle Chainsaws, Nic and Kate talk frankly about the feeling that life is held together with wobbly scaffolding and what happens when it all falls down.

It’s also about recognising when the systems that are meant to help often just add to the load and how hard it is to keep advocating when you're already running on empty.

We're back with another slice of beautifully chaotic honesty from Neurotypicals Don’t Juggle Chainsaws.

This week, Nic and Kate get stuck into the world of beauty practitioners, from eyebrow appointments to small talk, and why some environments just aren’t set up with neurodivergent brains in mind.

It’s very funny, very real, and might just make you feel a bit more seen.
