22. S3, Ep3: Ric Clarke the Data man from Edinburgh on Anaplan modelling, autism, ADHD and advocating in Scotland
56m · PublishedRic Clarke shares his journey of being diagnosed first as ADHD, then last year as autistic (and with probable dyspraxia thrown in!)

44m · PublishedCora Burke has had many challenges in her life as a surviving twin born with epilepsy, who experienced tough early years growing up in a specialist unit away from her parents.
But this, and other life-changing challenges, never stopped Cora from being highly adaptable and extremely determined.
Now Cora has had enough.
Enough of inequality.
Enough of autistic and other neurodivergent people not being treated fairly in the home, education and justice systems or the workplace.
And she’s doing something about it. Cora tells us that, no matter how difficult our lives can be, we can fight for what we believe in. Neurorebellion is such a cause for good. Listen to this inspiring and thought-provoking conversation to hear what it really means when we talk about taking action to help others in the field of Neurodiversity.
