Inclusion is important and being Neurodiverse is hard enough even without people judging you. I am (amongst other things) ADHD. My difficulties pale in comparison to most others, but the judgement is still there.
How do we learn as individuals or as a society if we do not include all of life's experience's in our journey. The answer is, we don't.
The only reason I am in the position I'm in now, is because I could talk to my last employer about my ADHD and what it's pro's and con's are. He helped my harness my strengths and acknowledge my weaknesses without shame or judging myself harshly.
No matter how old you are or what your life experience is, everyone has something positive to add to any situation. They only need to be given the opportunity to show you.
I want to say a massive thank you to Cosi, Ali Clarke and Mix102.3 for having me at the Big Birthday for Everyone held at Adelaide Zoo yesterday.
It felt incredible to be a part of the event and provide an experience to some kids that normally get left out.
