For those of you in Brighton, UK, I'm going to be running on of my regular Curious Being Lego Social sessions this Sunday at Puzzle Bored.

Would be super to see some of you there for low-pressure socialising and (if you like) some playing with Lego!

Is there a word for both feeling seen and called out at the same time? Because whatever that word is, that's what I'm feeling.

See you in about ten years.

If you happen to be in Brighton at the end of August, come and join our fab little community for a Lego Social -

It's an open, neuro-accessible, welcoming place where you can chat and build as little or as much as you like. Hope to see you there!

My version of #productivity has never really looked like the "right" way to be productive. In this episode of Neat, Plausible and Wrong, Dr. Miriam and I dig into how this idea shows up in the #workplace.

I'm deeply ambivalent about the idea of #resilience at work - it's both a necessary skill, and an idea that's used against #neurodivergent and other marginalised people.

Ever had legitimate concerns dismissed as "change resistance"? In this episode of Neat, Plausible and Wrong, Dr. Miriam and I dig into this very murky concept.

#neurodiversity #psychology #change

Visual thinking is something that often comes up in discussions around #neurodiversity - yet like many neurodivergent people, I'm not a stereotypical visual thinker.

Dr. Miriam and I talk all this through in our latest episode:

We're moving into controversial territory here - talking about the good and the bad of #personality types at work. If I'm honest, from a #neurodiversity perspective, it's mostly bad.

The first of our new series of conversations exploring business #psychology through the lens of #neurodiversity. Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs. If you've been told strange things about #motivation at work, then this might explain why!

What Sherlock Holmes can teach us about productivity and our brains What can Baker Street’s most famous resident teach us about how we do our most important work?

Every wondered what Sherlock Holmes has to do with being productive? I had a really great chat with @hellosteadman.com on his podcast Undo about how to get things done in your own way and play to your strengths.

Figuring out what to do before and after diagnosis of a neurodivergent condition can be an awful lot to navigate. I spoke to Dr Rachel Morris on her podcast about some ways to approach the whole thing - youarenotafrog.com/episodes/266/

AuDHD at work I noticed that a lot of the advice out there for autistic people or ADHDers at work doesn't really help if you're both. Hel Straker had noticed this too, so we've got together to do something about it...

I recently interviewed some fellow AuDHDers about their experiences at work. Not only was it fascinating, it was personally validating too.

Neuro-accessible language Fixing language barriers for neurodivergent people I recently helped an organisation make the language in an assessment more accessible to neurodivergent people. This got me thinking about the idea o...

Inaccessible language in things like forms and exams can be a huge barrier to neurodivergent people. It's so overlooked that I couldn't find much at all about it online. So I wrote a thing
