Guess what… we’ve gone international! Okay, maybe not quite viral (yet 😄), but we have reached listeners all the way in the USA - which led to this brilliant conversation.

In this episode, Alison chats with Lisa Richer, a Neurodiversity Consultant based in Maryland, USA. Together, they explore what can happen when we connect, share experiences, and really listen to one another - no matter where we are in the world.

They also don’t shy away from the challenges, talking honestly about how systems can sometimes get in the way when people’s voices aren’t truly heard. Lisa brings both her professional insight and her lived experience as a parent of two neurodiverse children, as well as her own journey with ADHD. She shares her reflections on supporting people to find their “why” and the importance of meeting people right in the “messy middle”.

It’s a warm, thoughtful conversation where Alison and Lisa discover a shared passion for language, kindness, understanding, and curiosity.

We’ll be honest - recording across the ocean came with a few sound glitches here and there - but we promise they are minimal and definitely don’t take away from the heart of the conversation.
