Session Overview

You Don’t Have to Be Neurodivergent to Work Here… But It Helps

This isn’t a lecture on neurodivergence. It’s an hour of stories, laughter, and moments of genuine recognition that might just change how you see the people around you. Built for workplaces where different kinds of brains work alongside each other every day, this session draws on lived experience, neuroscience, and a lot of audience participation to explore what it actually feels like to be a neurodivergent person at work, and what that means for all of us.

What we cover:

  • Why a “we need to talk” text can derail an entire day
  • What subtitles, Norah Jones on repeat, and climbing out of a window in Oxford have to do with how we process the world
  • The brilliant point you had in that meeting, what your brain was doing with it, and why it vanished the moment the microphone reached you
  • Why the most empathetic person in the room sometimes looks like the coldest one in it
