An interview with Jess Rad who was shortlisted in the 2024 National Diversity Awards as a positive role model for gender. Here, she talks about the impact of her ADHD and possible autism at home/work.
Being a parent carer in the UK is exhausting. I'm glad your speaking up. And I was struck by the sentence about many ADHDers being enterpenuers as I explore my own possible neurodivergence.
It is exhausting Faith. That is a very apt word for it. Looking after ourselves first is critical, I hope you find time and space for this. Yes it's very common for us to be entrepreneurs, and combined with our social justice sensitivity - often social entrpreneurs. Worth a little exploration perhaps.
Clare! I'm so happy to read this. We live on a rollercoaster ride, don't we? The biggest challenge I find is the one in our minds. If we can master that, the rest follows. Sending love x
Wow Jess, this was so uplifting. Just when I was hitting a low wave, this has pulled me right back up. Thank you ❤️❤️❤️

I've set up as a private occupational therapist working with neurodivergent kids and I'm loving it!
Oh WOW! I absolutely adore the work of OT's with ND kids. That is incredible Faith well done!
Thanks Jess!
