IWD Community Takeover: ADHD Workplace Inclusion

Today is International Women’s Day and the theme this year is Inclusion. Research shows that 1/3 of people with ADHD are unemployed and a greater number are under employed so we are talking all things ADHD Inclusion at work, workplace empowerment, self-employment and retraining.Whilst Laura is away the Planet ADHD AF Peer Support Community will play! Specifically, Community LEGENDS and Coaches  Ally and Kim, chat to community members  who have had three different ADHD work ‘safaris’ and found different ways to support their ADHD and their careers whilst Laura is visiting family in the Caribbean.From career change to neurodivergent friendly leadership and self-employment, they talk all things work with community legends Claire, Jill and Kimi. Each mini-interview looks at something different and has a set of coaching tips from Ally, Kim and Zoe Joanna Coaching to offer advice and support to others who find themselves struggling in employment.All three of these guest hosts and many more very special guests are taking part in the third Live Tour Alien Nation…If unidentified ADHD left you feeling like an Alien YOU ARE NOT ALONE!

Late diagnosed ADHDer turned Activist Laura Mears-Reynolds invites you aboard the late ADHD diagnosis roller coaster!   After a lifetime of unknowingly battling a brain disorder and feeling like an alien, I’ve discovered there’s a whole planet of us! YOU ARE NOT ALONE! Join me and the Leopard Print Army in  ‘unmasking’ and owning  our ‘TOO MUCH’-ness! With the help of very special guests, including the likes of: bestselling Authors Clementine Ford & Davinia Taylor, ITV This Morning's Dr Nighat Arif,  The ADHD Adults, ADHD Love, Catieosaurus, Life Actuator, BBC Morning Live’s Riyadh Khalaf, Forever Yours Betty, Adulting ADHD and many more! Only an expert by my own lived experience which I share with a hope to help others and push for systemic change so that ADHDers can be treated both medically and with the respect they deserve. Together we will make change happen! (And we can have a few laughs along the way at the most ADHD things we’ve done!) All episodes prior to Oct ‘23 feature & were edited by Dawn Farmer.  Laura continues the ‘safari’ solo, as hell hath no fury like a ‘hun’ late diagnosed with ADHD.
