Mistakes That Made Me

“Holding myself to neurotypical standards as a neurodivergent entrepreneur” with Martha Barnard-Rae

(PSA: I’ve got a cold so excuse my voice!) 😆


Martha Barnard-Rae is a TEDx speaker, copywriter, and the CEO of Word Candy. In this episode, we chat about Martha's late diagnosis of ADHD and autism, the challenges of running a business while being neurodivergent, and how she’s adapted the way she does business to suit her individual needs.

 

Martha opens up about the systemic failings in recognising neurodivergence in women and girls, and the importance of building a business and life tailored to her own requirements.

 

This episode is a call for empathy, understanding, and making radical changes to better accommodate diverse needs.

I used to use a different app that was able to save excerpts from podcast and really enjoyed it. I could listen to the podcast and quickly save things that I wanted to come back to later. Snipd take this to a whole new level with AI integration, creating summaries of podcasts and summarizing the main takeaways from what I’ve saved and snipped. I really love how it helps me prioritize what podcast to listen to with it summaries & deep dives.
