ADHDAF Episode 46: Celebrating Neurodiversity with Priyanka Patel
It’s Neurodiversity Celebration Week and we have got the perfect blether for the occasion! The wonderful Priyanka Patel AKA @littlemiss_adhd_ hops aboard the late ADHD diagnosis roller coaster with us and alongside sharing her experience she also highlights how following our passions leads ADHDers to thrive. Her positivity is inspiring and this chinwag has helped reframe Laura’s perception of her achievements.
‘Quite often the focus is on the challenges rather than the many strengths and talents of neurodivergent individuals, ever neurodivergent individual has a unique pattern of strengths and challenges. It is important to harness the strengths and talents of neurodivergent individuals, this helps to build confidence and self-esteem, and ensures individuals are given the opportunity to flourish in their day-to-day’ - @neurodiversityweek
