We had a fascinating chat with Maddy in this episode and got the first, exclusive scoop on her recent PR experience with some very negative national media coverage where she was labelled as a 'Sickfluencer' just because she helps people to claim Access To Work funding, which she rightly quashed and dealt with fabulously. We also asked Maddy all about her role, having been named as one of...

In this episode we were due to be interviewing Maddy Alexander-Grout: Visibility Strategist, ADHD Coach and advocate for people with hidden disabilities.

We talk about what it feels to belong; times of feeling excluded; diversity of t...
