The lightbulb, Willy Wonka, The Beatles & even the screen you’re reading this on would not exist without neurodivergent minds.
20% of the population is considered neurodivergent (ADHD, Autism, Dyscalculia, Dyslexia, Dyspraxia, & Tourettes etc.) and yet waiting times for diagnosis are at an all-time high.
Join Ben Branson (Autistic/ADHD), the visionary founder of Seedlip, as each week he sits down with great minds that think differently: from neurodivergent entrepreneurs & talented creatives to renowned authors, psychologists & experts.
As a society we need more awareness, understanding & support of neurological conditions that have silently contributed so much to the cultural fabric of the world we live in. [Just ask; Mozart, Newton, Monroe, Ali, Jobs, Curie, Christie, Picasso, Warhol, Da Vinci, Darwin, Lennon, Dahl, Tesla or Eistein].
The Hidden 20% is proudly presented by PRISM ND (#616279), a charity dedicated to breaking the cycle of shame, stigma & struggle by increasing awareness of neurodivergence using modern mixed media.
I’ve just started listening to these episodes so it’s too soon to comment overall. But I do think we need to re-think the concept of ‘normal’. 20% is a LOT of people.
