Welcome to another episode of Candid Conversations with Shaun Pianta.
How much do you know about Tourette's Syndrome?
In this episode, host Shaun meets atWork Australia client, Georgia, who speaks openly about her experience living with tourettes.
Georgia talks us through the difficult time of receiving her diagnosis, the challenges she has faced due to other people's limited knowledge of her condition and the assumptions she receives based on what people have seen in movies and online.
This is an informative episode that provides some insights into what life is actually like living with Tourette's, while also debunking some of the common myths.
Georgia's story is one of resilience and determination. While also highlighting the importance of a supportive and inclusive workplace.
