Welcome back! I'm your host, Mariane Power, and I'm excited to be bringing you Season 4 of the podcast, featuring conversations with people from diverse minds, bodies, cultures and backgrounds, in a series that explores what it takes to create ‘Inclusive Impact’.
Each of our guests brings unique lived experience insights and science backed strategies that will help us all to imagine and create an inclusive future of learning, work and leadership.
To offer context, this episode includes a bonus 15 minute excerpt from a keynote that introduces the Impact Mindset Theory and Framework which resulted from research conducted by The Posify Group, and that inspired this series.
Then, you'll meet our first guest, Grace Koelma, Education Specialist, Certified Breathwork & Meditation Teacher and Founder of Future ADHD, who was diagnosed with ADHD at 33.
Grace shares her own transformative journey, from her late diagnosis of ADHD to becoming an entrepreneur who's created a globally recognised ADHD friendly digitial planner. Women with ADHD will find a kindred spirit in Grace, as she shares both the joys and struggles that colour her lived experience of learning, working, leading and parenting as a neurodivergent woman.
