Chapters:

01:01 A message from our sponsor: Tiimo
03:29 ADHD item reveal
03:53 So, a question that might have some layered answers, but, when was your first memory of feeling different?
06:22 Did your ADHD diagnosis mean a lot to you?
09:15 Is there a high proportion of neurodivergence in the gay community from your experience?
10:05 And did I read somewhere that both of your sisters are gay? Are they both also neurodivergent too?
10:18 What was your parent's response to firstly the collective Neurodivergence?
11:58 How do you think you would have coped through your various iterations of learning that you're "different" without the support of your siblings?
13:56 What is the importance to you of surrounding yourself with your “tribe"
14:57 Have you ever been told you're "too much" for someone, either as a friend, or as a partner, or in the dating world?
16:14 ADHD struggles
17:34 How do you personally deal with heartbreak?
18:45 And how would you describe real love from your own personal emotionally complex ADHD mind's experience?
20:48 ADHD item explanation
21:39 The ADHD agony aunt segment (The washing machine of woes)
24:48 What led you to become part of the Reality TV show "I Kissed A Girl" and why did you choose to do it?
26:57 I don't know how the edit the show, but I imagine things are changed and fabrciated a bit to fulfill a certain narrative. For someone with ADHD and maybe RSD, that's a huge risk to take.
28:12 How has the social media response been and has it impacted you or your family either negatively or positively?
32:09 How does RSD manifest in your and is it something you've had to struggle through your whole life?
33:03 Having spoken to you now, I'd say you're the image of confidence. What insecurities might you have that you think you've done such a great job in masking that nobody would ever guess you think them about yourself?
34:40 The feeling of not fitting in a box must be something quite familiar to you now! What advice would you give to someone who doesn't feel like they are fitting in when they are desperate to?
35:36 What is it about you and your character that has been able to navigate through so many "against the grain" moments in your life and come out the other side so confident and happy?
36:19 What is your life after the show going to be like in terms of the parts you can control (i.e what are you going to do with your new found stardom) and the parts you can't control (i.e being known for a Reality TV show)?
37:45 What is it about being ADHD that you'd miss hugely if you were to suddenly become Neurotypical overnight?

Martine McCutcheon is an actress, best known for her roles in Eastenders & Love Actually, but today she opens up about her late ADHD diagnosis.
Chapters:
00:00 Trailer
01:20 A message from our sponsor: Tiimo
04:39 The ADHD item reveal
05:13 A simple question to start, but an important one, when was your first memory of feeling different?
08:26 Your upbringing in Hackney was tumultuous to say the least. Do you think, from memory, your childhood is linked to your ADHD in any way?
09:27 Why do you think you were diagnosed so late in your life?
21:07 You started performing very early in your life. How was it as a child to be a performer and how did that detract from your academia?
28:15 Many viewers of the podcast will of course recognise you from Eastenders as the iconic character Tiffany.
30:34 What is the pressure like being in the UKs most watched Soap Opera for such a long run?
34:00 It’s quite rare for an actor to be broadcast so consistently to a whole nation and be known so well for that role and it must be very surreal, how did your RSD deal with this particular strain of fame and interactions with the public & press?
37:31 Do you find yourself having been drawn to other neurodivergent minds either personally or professionally?
43:16 Does ADHD affect your ability to learn acting lines
44:46 A huge thing we speak about often on the podcast is imposter syndrome. Have you ever experienced this and did you experience this leaping from a Soap Opera into a Hollywood movie?
49:53 Now you've been diagnosed with ADHD, if you could sit down and have a word with a younger version of Martine just at the moment she's been told she'll be on the country's most beloved Soap Opera, what would you say to her?
56:41 A message from our sponsor: Stasis
58:09 Have you grown to love yourself, feel comfortable in your own skin and everything that entails and did that journey start pre-diagnosis? Or with the diagnosis?
01:05:44 How does your anxiety manifest itself and has this been a struggle in your past?
01:14:27 Reflecting on My Fair Lady
01:20:31 ADHD item explanation
01:22:02 The Washing Machine of Woes
01:24:16 You’ve been away from the public eye for a while, has that been good for you?
01:27:56 In hindsight, do a lot of your behaviours make sense to you now that you have an ADHD diagnosis and if so, which ones?
01:29:50 How would your children describe your ADHD and various neurodivergent eccentricities?
01:31:37 Why was it important to come on here and discuss it today?
01:33:49 If you could sit down and have one conversation with one person from your past, with the fresh perspective of being diagnosed with ADHD, who would it be with and why?

02:46 Start of interview
03:27 I quite often ask this question at the end but I think it would be a good one to start with:
04:02 Could you explain in detail the general spectrum of ASD, where you place on it and then where Joshy would be placed on it?
05:44 You hear quite regularly things like "oh my friend, he/she is a bit on the spectrum", it seems in some way, we are all on the spectrum. That's why it's a spectrum and not binary. Is this true? Do we all have a bit of an -ism?
07:12 You’ve been diagnosed with ADHD and Autism, when was your first memory of feeling different?
10:08 Do you think you could describe as accurately as best you can what Joshy's experience of the world is?
12:12 How does Joshy show and process his emotions and feelings?
13:11 What is the general communication like between yourself and Joshy and how has that evolved over time
14:00 Did it take time to come to terms with Joshy's diagnosis and if so, what were the stages of processing like for you?
17:22 How have you coped as a father?
19:24 ADHD Item
21:31 Were there any tell-tale signs of Joshy's condition very early in his life and if so, how early?
22:49 A message from our sponsor: Stasis
24:16 How has the world changed with regards to how it views autism since your personal diagnosis?
27:46 Is there a chasm that needs to be addressed with regards to Joshy's experience of the world and how people with his condition are viewed by authorities?
32:21 How would you like the world to change over the next 10 years with regards to ADHD and Autism?
34:14 What Autism associated stigma would you most like to debunk?
36:13 What nonverbal autistic stigma would you most like to debunk?

23:59 When was the last time you felt truly 100% unmasked and this made you feel incredibly liberated and accepted?
27:12 From your experience, what toll does the feeling of being misunderstood take on a person at the time it's happening, and in hindsight what toll do you think it can play on a person when they reach adulthood?
31:14 We’ve had a few guests on with AuDHD and one of the most illustrative of analogies is "it's like 2 siblings dragging each other across the room by their hair". How would you describe these two sectors of the brain colliding on a day-to-day basis?
35:46 Last time you were on you described a sort of 6 month pendulum swing of depression that would then swing to optimism and ambition. You haven't been on here for around a year, so I was just wondering if this has cropped up again in your life and how?
39:48 ADHD item
42:24 The washing machine of woes
48:19 Does having ADHD and Autism make you more tolerant of other people who exhibit what might be frustrating symptoms of ADHD and Autism in your personal or professional life?
51:04 You’ve built a fantastic community online lending support to neurodivergents, from those who have reached out, do you see any common themes in the turmoils of those who are feeling lost?
53:23 Have you made any steps over the last year to manage your R.S.D and has it cropped up in your life since you were last on?
58:23 For someone who has said they take things literally and can maybe be more blunt than people are used to, this must cause confusions in conversations and friendships, how does your RSD deal with these confusions?
01:04:07 Why are boundaries important to a person?
01:11:16 At the beginning of your Ted Talk, you listed contradictions of social dynamics that you had trouble balancing. Could you mention a couple of them now?
01:13:18 You then go on to say other neurotypical people just seemed to have a metaphorical rulebook which helped them understand these things that you couldn't get to grips with, did this lead to resentment of being different? Having to work so hard to understand something others know intrinsically?

Expect to learn the signs you're dating a narcissist, the similarities between ADHD and narcissism, and so much more.
Topics:
00:00 Trailer
02:28 A broad question and not yet ADHD specific, but, what is a narcissist and is there a difference between a narcissist and someone with NPD?
06:48 Why do you think narcissism is such a big topic in the world at the moment?
08:27 Is genuine Narcissism or NPD (Narcissistic Personality Disorder for audience members) common and if so, why do you think that is?
10:10 What does a narcissist need to "survive" and what is it they’re looking for in life (and what are they looking for from people around them)?
14:20 How does a narcissist prey on someone and what sort of people are they looking to exploit?
16:30 Is covert narcissism different to the more mainstream narcissism we hear about and why is it particularly dangerous?
18:21 Are narcissists afraid of being alone and what - in general terms - do you think a narcissist thinks of when they are left alone?
20:00 What might the general timeline be for someone dating a narcissist and that dating turning into a serious relationship i.e how might narcissism show itself gradually in a romantic relationship?
22:04 What tricks does a narcissist use to keep you on their hook if they see you as part of their "narcissistic supply”?
24:05 ADHD Item
27:06 Washing machine of woes
33:09 Do narcissists know they’re narcissists?
34:24 At what point would a narcissist begin to become self-aware that they might indeed have a problem?
36:39 I need to voice some worries of my own! I’m on camera, I think I share some of the traits we've been talking about. I don't like being alone. I need praise to rid me of my RSD….do you think I’m a narcissist? How can I tell?!
39:48 How can I be sure that my traits are just ADHD and not narcissism?
43:09 Are there any other similarities someone with ADHD might have that are typical of a Narcissist, but might not be narcissism?
45:07 If someone has an ADHD partner and they are trying to figure out if it's ADHD, or if there is something more sinister at play, what steps can they take to help try to figure it out?
47:51 Is there a known cause for narcissism and if not, what do you think might be a factor that perpetuates it?
49:18 How to spot a narcissist
53:21 Can you ever change a narcissist and is it worth trying?
54:05 Can narcissists be successful professionally?
57:33 Successful narcissists aside, with the lower rungs of narcissism and perhaps the majority of the narcissistic population that aren't particularly high-functioning CEOs, what can that look like? Or to put it another way, what does the "everyday narcissist" look like?
59:40 Is social media causing narcissism, or is it just the perfect tool for someone who already is a narcissist?

26:44 You have a great analogy about Tarzan and ADHD, can you explain this for our audience?
33:05 Being diagnosed with ADHD and being a comedian - the creative comedy mind of which is constantly flipping from thought to thought (and I'm sure the two go hand in hand) - but how did this fluid nature of the way the brain works serve in holding down jobs & relationships?
47:52 Moving around a lot when you were younger, changing country, feeling "foreign", facing racism, having ADHD, being shy, that's a lot to deal with for someone who is likely to be emotionally sensitive? What do you think the most testing part of your life has been as far as RSD is concerned?

01:14:33 Do you think that everything you've been through - including your late diagnosis - has helped you build your career?
01:17:41 Where would you be in life without your sense of humour and what purpose does your sense of humour serve in softening the blow of everything we've spoken about already!
01:19:35 A wedding day story
01:23:14 Being very much an outsider through Neurodivergent means and, back when you came to the UK, feeling like an outsider through race too, do you have an explanation in a nutshell that might best describe how ostracised a person would feel, and did feel, in that scenario?

04:34 Do our dreams serve a purpose?

Alex chats with Matt Hancock, the former UK Health Secretary, on a range of important issues affecting the Neurodivergent community.
Topics:
00:00 Trailer
01:28 How much consideration was there for the neurodiverse community when considering putting the country into Lockdown
04:56 In the past few years you've come up against a lot of pressure, did that give you a new sense of empathy with regards to people who have felt misunderstood their whole life, i.e in this case, the neurodivergent community?
08:25 Washing machine of woes
10:22 You've been outspoken about Dyslexia, but do you think you stray into the realm of any other neurodivergent behaviours?
13:47 How is it that a clearly very bright person such as yourself can miss being dyslexic until the age of 18 or 19?
15:26 What measures can be taken within the schooling system to make sure these Neurodivergent behaviours are recognised from an earlier age?
16:27 Advice to parents if the school doesn’t take neurodiversity seriously
20:41 How do you think not being diagnosed impacted your personal progression and development?
26:45 How can teachers identify the unique learning requirements of individual children
30:42 What plans would you enforce to reduce the NHS ADHD diagnosis waiting list?
35:31 What would you say to a child that feels ‘different’
38:25 How parents can help their child find their passion
39:35 When you were Health Secretary, did you think ADHD and other neurodivergent conditions were taken seriously by the powers that be and if not, why do you think that was?
41:36 Much like ADHD, I think people can often have a reductive view on what Dyslexia is. What do you think is involved in Dyslexia that people don't know about?
46:00 I don't know what the exact statistics are, but around 0.5% of the population went to Oxbridge. You were at Oxford and openly say you have dyslexia. Even with that holding you back, what is it about the rest of your brain that got you into the most prestigious university in the world?
48:14 You must have seen neurodivergent people at Oxford with some incredible minds, diagnosed and presumably undiagnosed. Do you think excelling to an unusual degree, in one particular area, is actually dependent on neurodivergence?
48:56 I remember reading an interview with an ex-CIA agent who said the CIA are predominantly made up of Neurodivergent people and I can only assume it's true of the MI5 because they have a propensity to connect ideas that a cognitively typical person wouldn't. If Neurodivergence is such a beneficial force if channelled correctly, why has screening taken so long to employ in schools?
53:45 Should people put ADHD on their CV
56:44 What can we all do to convince companies of the benefits of a neurodivergent workforce
60:25 Why have the neurodiverse community been missed for so long
01:04:06 ADHD item
01:05:06 What has the last 5 years taught you about humanity?

This week, Parul Singh shares the story of how she won a legal case over an ex-employer for ADHD discrimination.
Parul is a Recruitment Marketing Partner and Neurodiversity Advocate at xDesign, and an ex-tech recruiter. She was diagnosed with ADHD at aged 25 and uses her platform to awareness about neurodiversity in the workplace and in the recruitment process to build a more equitable future for neurodivergent people.
In order to make a bigger impact, she created a new role at xDesign, "Neurodiversity Advocate” in which she works closely with the People Team to lead the internal neurodiversity community. We all know how important it is to feel less alone. She also feeds into internal policies, processes and supports other neurodivergent employees at xDesign. As a woman of colour, she also puts a spotlight on intersectionality within Neurodiversity and the compounding impact that being from multiple minority groups has on barriers we face”

Josh White is an entrepreneur who co-founded CanO Water. He's also been featured in the Forbes 30 under 30 list.
Josh was diagnosed with ADHD when he was a kid. His story is truly inspiring. It struck me how willing Josh was to being vulnerable in this conversation; he openly discusses the benefits of ADHD as well as the pitfalls, how it's helped him in his business life, but also how it's hindered his personal life. His honesty regarding the positives and the negatives of living with ADHD makes for a fascinating episode.
