  • Building an Inclusive Future for Autistic Coders
    May 6 2024

    Embarking on a journey from eager coder to independent freelancer, our returning guest Oluwaseye lays out the blueprint for navigating the tech world while honouring their neurodiversity. They delve into the nuances of building a thriving client base, crafting a website for an online service business, and balancing freelance work with their unique needs. This episode promises a roadmap for those seeking to marry their personal aspirations with their professional pursuits, all while defying the traditional job hunt in favour of self-sufficiency.

    We unpack the complexities that accompany neurodiversity in the corporate sphere, exploring how the pressures and expectations of traditional roles can often clash with the needs of those on the spectrum. Our discussion spotlights a potential disconnect between the inclusive policies flaunted by corporations and the everyday realities faced by neurodiverse employees. But there's a silver lining – the entrepreneurial path emerges as a beacon of flexibility, focusing on tools and methods like Grammarly and Speechify that have become crucial allies in managing a neurodivergent workload.

    Finally, we turn the spotlight on the Autistic Black Coders initiative, a testament to the power of community and the importance of mentorship in forging a tech career that aligns with one's true calling. From project management to customer success, the opportunities for neurodiverse individuals in tech are vast and varied.

  • Beyond Misophonia: Understanding Neurodiversity with Erin Mather
    Apr 28 2024

    Erin is a digital marketing apprentice working with her mum to create "Neuro Network", which is a networking platform for neurodivergent business owners. She also created her graphics design business, Ethereal Creative Design. Neuro Network consists of small groups of neurodiverse business owners who connect in a safe familiar space where they can be authentic unlike in a more neurotypical business environment.

    Erin has always felt different from childhood when she had immense difficulty making friends. She also later noticed she had a very strong reaction to certain sounds like chewing which she discovered was called Misophonia, a condition her mum already had. In addition, she has Misokinesia where repetitive movement is the trigger for the reaction. The reaction can be physically disabling as it impedes the ability to think and may even instigate suicidal thoughts. A very similar occurrence is seen in OCD too.

    Sarah hopes to have a workshop with Erin for neurodiverse business owners to network. Interested listeners can fill out the form below.

    Sarah has now launched her membership platform "NeuroEnigma", where neurodiverse people can have a supportive community with resources to manage ADHD or dyslexia.

    She is also offering a six-week coaching program for neurodivergent and neurotypical professionals who want to improve their career prospects or get into project management and take the PRINCE2 practitioner exam. A one-hour free session which can be booked via Sarah’s email is now available to give clients an idea of what to expect

  • A Holistic Approach to Fitness and Neurodiversity Among Black Women
    Apr 21 2024

    Have you ever considered how a high-achieving childhood might mask the whirlwind of ADHD? This revelation hit my former fitness coach, Cookie, like a thunderclap, sparking a shift from medication to natural supplementation and influencing her holistic coaching approach. Join us as Cookie opens up about her personal battle with ADHD and how she's channeling her understanding of hormonal balance and nutrition to revolutionize fitness coaching. Her story is a profound testament to harnessing self-awareness and finding personalized strategies that resonate with one's lifestyle and professional aspirations.

    The landscape of neurodiversity is rich and varied, yet too often, some voices go unheard. Today, we're amplifying those voices, particularly those of Black women like Cookie, who navigate the complexities of ADHD. We reflect on the impact of racial tensions on mental health and the importance of tailoring fitness and coaching practices to meet the unique needs of Black women. This episode is a crucial intersectional exploration, shedding light on the multifaceted experiences of neurodiversity within our communities.

    Ever felt the need to mask who you are to fit in? This conversation is for those who are tired of code-switching and are ready to embrace their ADHD or dyslexia as part of their unique professional identity. I share my journey and the unexpected ways my fitness program supports neurodivergent clients. Plus, get excited for our upcoming six-week coaching program designed to boost career prospects for those with neurodivergent talents. And for ongoing support, discover NeuroEnigma, a program providing comprehensive assessments, mental health resources, and productivity strategies. Remember, your feedback is the heartbeat of our community; it helps us grow and ensure our space is a supportive haven for all.
