  • #42 Slowing Down with a NDM Brain
    2026/01/11

    In this reflective solo episode, Jon Hart records from his car on a cold UK morning and shares what it looks like to take his foot off the accelerator after years of living in constant motion. He talks openly about neurodivergent pattern recognition, sensory overload, and how a life lived at full speed can blur meaning, creativity, and connection.


    Jon explores the difference between doing and noticing, why many neurodivergent people struggle to compartmentalise, and how stress, anxiety, and burnout often show up as symptoms of deeper neurodivergent traits. Drawing on lived experience with ADHD, autism, and dyslexia, he reflects on awareness, presence, and the importance of sitting with yourself rather than chasing fixes.


    The episode also touches on small grounding practices that feel tangible rather than performative, reframing happiness as a skill, and reconnecting with music not as a transaction but as a relationship. From naming instruments to processing life through sound, Jon shares how creativity becomes a stabilising force when expectations are removed.

  • #40 Dyslexia with Andy Webb

    In this episode of The Neurodivergent Musician Podcast, Jon Hart sits down with dyslexic entrepreneur and speaker Andy Webb for an open conversation about creative thinking, resilience, and rebuilding life after struggle.


    Andy shares how dyslexia shaped his early challenges at school and later became the foundation of his success as a business owner and advocate for neurodiversity. Together, Jon and Andy explore the parallels between music and entrepreneurship, the link between failure and reinvention, and why embracing your wiring can unlock unexpected strengths.


    From spare-room beginnings to leading a thriving creative business, Andy’s journey reminds us that neurodivergence isn’t a limitation; it’s a lens that can turn obstacles into opportunities.

  • #38 Service with Will Luchford (who interviews Jon)
    2024/11/19

    In this unique episode of The Neurodivergent Musician Podcast, the roles are reversed as the brilliant Will Luchford—coach and session guitarist—takes the interviewer’s seat. Together, we explore the concept of Service, diving deep into the heart of my latest album, podcast, and community.


    Will and I first crossed paths during Bloem De Wilde de Ligny and Nick Bottini’s Creative Recharge in 2023, and our connection has only grown stronger through shared experiences in Tom Fogg's Modern Man and Nick's Project Domino. In this interview, Will creates a safe and open space for me to unmask and unpack the challenges I’ve faced, especially when it comes to marketing my work authentically.


    This episode is an honest and raw conversation about embracing neurodiversity, the realities of ADHD, and the powerful impact of leading with service rather than sales. We reflect on building genuine connections in a world that often prioritises surface-level engagement.


    Listen in as we discuss:

    • The discomfort of asking for support as a creative (like freezing during Project Domino’s supportive exercise).
    • Reframing marketing and sales through the lens of service (moving away from "buy this" to building meaningful relationships).
    • How neurodivergence shapes communication and creativity (impulsivity, the 'Verbal Express', and lifting mental rocks to find true answers).
    • Will’s bus ride analogy (navigating ADHD communication as a series of meaningful stops along the journey).


    Will’s thoughtful questions and unique perspective allow me to explore my mission, movement, and message like never before. This is a conversation full of heart, humour, and profound insight into what it means to thrive as a neurodivergent creative.


    Let’s continue creating ripples together.

    From navigating life as a neurodivergent musician to embracing her unique creative process, Becky’s story is both inspiring and relatable.
