  • Summary

  • Being Neurodivergent is often shrouded in misconceptions, stereotypes, and limited knowledge. While our experiences may overlap, no two stories are the same. Hosted by The Autistic Photographer, Jordan James, and Simon Scott - The Neurodivergent Experience is the weekly podcast dedicated to exploring the vast world of Autism, ADHD and more!


    Through this podcast, we aim to challenge those misconceptions and dive deep into the diverse experiences of those in the spectrum by sharing our personal stories, and exploring topics like early interventions, sensory processing, education, employment, and much more. Each episode will feature insightful conversations about living in the spectrum, with guest experts, advocates, and allies who are passionate about creating an inclusive and accepting world.

    Whether you're Neurodivergent yourself, a friend, family member, or simply curious about this extraordinary way of experiencing the world, this podcast is your guide to unravelling The Neurodivergent Experience.

    The Autistic Sense Of Justice & Dealing With Liars | EP47
    Dec 12 2024

    In this episode of the Neurodivergent Experience, hosts Jordan James and Simon Scott discuss various themes around the infamous Autistic sense of justice. We share our personal anecdotes and insights on dealing with liars, how past experiences of violence and trauma shape our current behaviours and perceptions, particularly regarding trust and disingenuousness. We delve into the complexities of emotional expression, the impact of hypocrisy, and the challenges of honesty in relationships for Autistic people and the struggle between maintaining emotional safety and the desire for genuine connections.

    Dec 5 2024

    In this episode of the Neurodivergent Experience, hosts Jordan James and Simon Scott explore the multifaceted aspects of being Autistic at Christmas, discussing their personal traditions and the ups and downs of the holiday season.

    We explore various aspects of Christmas, from personal traditions and family dynamics to the anxieties and expectations that come with the holiday season.

What an education

I feel so much more optimistic about outcomes for neurodivergent people because of the life and energy given to the topic in this podcast. This is totally reengineering how neuro divergence is being represented
