Welcome Brains

Andy and I dive into why having all brain types in the workplace is not just important—but essential. We explore how simple, thoughtful tweaks can make a workplace more welcoming and comfortable for everyone, not just neurodivergent individuals. Andy shares practical advice on how to start conversations with leadership and line managers to advocate for a safer, more inclusive work environment. We talk about the reasons behind these changes and how accommodations ultimately benefit everyone, creating a more productive and supportive workspace. Throughout our conversation, we discuss the importance of neurodiversity in professional spaces, the small yet impactful changes that can make a big difference, and the best ways to approach leadership when advocating for inclusivity. This episode is for anyone navigating the workplace—whether you're an employee, a leader, or someone curious about fostering a more welcoming environment. I walked away with more questions than answers (in the best way), and I hope you do too!
