Izzy Judd is a musician, content creator and mum of three who recently launched her podcast ‘Let’s Talk Neurodivergent Kids’.

Neurodivergence is a common theme on Stompcast, but we’ve never delved into what it’s actually like to raise neurodivergent children.

In part one, Izzy joins Dr Alex George to discuss her difficult journey to motherhood, what her experience of raising a neurodivergent child has been like and why she believes that with difference comes amazing brilliance.

Plus, Izzy shares why she’s not a fan of the word ‘mindfulness’ and explores the concept of pathological demand avoidance.
