Neuroshambles

Life as a social outcast | Samuel Wilson


Listen Later

In this funny and deeply personal conversation, Mark sits down with writer and fellow parent of neurodivergent kids, Samuel Wilson, to explore what it feels like to live - and parent - from the outside looking in.

They discuss isolation on the school playground, the judgment we feel from parents of neurotypicals and the joy of finding other parents of SEND kids who understand the realities.

If you're seeking an ADHD or autism parenting podcast that gets the emotional reality of this journey - this is it.
