Leanne Maskell first appeared in Vogue when she was 13.

From the outside, her life as a model appeared glamorous. But in reality, Leanne was battling to survive.

After blowing the whistle on the modelling industry in her first book in 2019, Leanne has since opened up about another important part of her life: being neurodivergent.

In this week's long listen, Leanne talks about being diagnosed with ADHD and autism as an adult, the impact it has had on her relationships, and how she says harnessing the power of AuDHD has changed her life.
