This podcast will cover a plethora of topics and has been created as a space to celebrate Neurodiversity. It is also a place where we can embrace our Neurodivergence, and unapologetically be ourselves. We are quite political and forthcoming with our opinions. You don’t have to agree with them, but they will be presented here, often quite passionately. Warning: Explicit language may be present in some recordings.
Season 1 includes ‘off the cuff recordings’, rather than planned discussions, so they are a little more ‘raw’.

Here we discuss the terms low and high functioning. What started out as a balanced conversation about the terms, admittedly wound up becoming a conversation about the ‘high functioning’ experience. We didn’t intend for the conversation to take this direction, but we hope you can relate to some of the topics we explore. With regard to the terminology, high and low functioning, we express that we feel the terms are inadequate. During the talk, we reference the following:

I like to be honest, and I have to confess, I am unwell…and was speaking faster than usual. I didn’t know that was possible either… 😂 Sorry to my husband, who struggled to get a word in.
We may need to record a follow up actually dealing with the main issue we intended to cover. Get in touch if there is anything you would like to add...
