Christopher Mbaki is a true star in the making - I saw him first in MidSomerNight's Dream from Intermission Youth Theatre. Watching his development has been rewarding. From Shakespeare to the Hackney Equestrian, this man is shaking up the world by doing things his way - with calm intention, dedication and humour.

Listen to find out how his parents reacted to his wish to become an actor and how he's addressing stereotypes by taking riding lessons and blowing up TikTok with his feed 'The Black Equestrian'.

Enjoy the En-ergy in Motion (™) which challenges us to think about - 'What makes us move, what makes us happy what makes us thrive?'

#happyinschool - Autism & ADHD Education and Empowerment

Support the show

It comes to us all, the desire to do something that gives our lives purpose: I was running on empty in bare feet, so I quit my corporate career to do many hundreds of hours of psychology research which had two outcomes:

1. I set up #happyinschoolproject CIC to provide advocacy and information to parents and educators about how autism and ADHD can be missed in younger children, especially those from black Caribbean heritage.

2. I finished capturing the epic tale of my son's diagnosis which was published in my first non-fiction book:

S.E.N.D. in the Clowns, Essential Autism and ADHD Family Guide.

I discovered I am the owner of a Brilliant ADHD brain in my fifties and I continue to use this brain to spark conversations, challenge ignorance, write books, articles, poetry give keynotes, training and workshops.
