Welcome to Differently Brained, where no brain is the same
Differently Brained is an own voices podcast where each fortnight we interview a guest to have open and honest conversations about their experiences We champion neurodivergent and mental health awareness and acceptance by encouraging people tell their own stories to champion the different ways we all exist in the world.
We're here to break down those stigmas and misconceptions around neurodivergence and mental health, and normalise these conversations in our community.
