In this emotionally rich and beautifully honest episode, Charlotte Hunt, the powerhouse behind Twin Tides & Autism Vibes, joins Dr Emma Offord to explore the hidden stories behind advocacy, identity, motherhood, and living a neurodivergent life that was never built for your wiring.

Charlotte shares her journey from being a school refuser at 14, to navigating complex family dynamics, to discovering her neurodivergent traits through her children, to becoming a voice of truth and connection for thousands online. She speaks openly about the highs and lows of SEN parenting, the toll of health anxiety, the impact of perimenopause, and the moments where her light “goes out”, the signs her needs have been unseen for too long.

Emma and Charlotte delve into:

• What happens when your early coping strategies run out
• Masking, unmasking & becoming “full-size” in midlife
• The vulnerability of online advocacy
• The fatigue of holding everything together
• Neurodivergent needs inside a neurodivergent household
• Why connection is the antidote to shame
• The power of finding your people, your scaffolding

Charlotte’s voice is raw, real, and deeply validating. She reminds us that growth lives in the uncomfortable, that our stories are never wrong, and that the magic happens when we stop trying to be perfect and start being honest.

A healing, relatable and profoundly human conversation for every parent, advocate, and neurodivergent soul figuring themselves out in real time.
