011 Do Good and Do Awful: Neurodiversity, Mental Health and a Memoir for Our Uncertain Times, with Rebecca Schiller


Listen Later

In this episode I talk about self-belief, it's importance within the changemaking space and what you might do to build it.

I also talk to the brilliant Rebecca Schiller, author, journalist and campaigner. Rebecca is a Trustee, former CEO and co-founder of Birthrights - the human rights in childbirth charity. She is a regular contributor to the Guardian and Observer and her forthcoming memoir, Earthed, will be published in May 2021. Rebecca and I chat about:

  • Rebecca's sense of unfairness and injustice and how it drives her and her work
  • Rebecca's recent diagnosis of ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) and the part it has to play in her life
  • Giving permission to ask for what we need so we can the best job
  • Lessons from the awfulness
  • And Rebecca's new memoir, Earthed.
