The Neurodivergent Lens
by Meryem Hassan | Dyscourse
The Neurodivergent Lens Let's keep the conversation going around neurodivergence. If you've ever felt like the neurodivergent conversations you hear are skimming the surface of what you're actually living - this is the podcast we made for you. Hosted by Meryem Hassan, a dyslexic psychotherapist and founder of the neurodiversity consultancy Dyscourse, The Neurodivergent Lens is where the honest, layered conversations happen. The ones that name what you already know, celebrate what you already are, and open up what's still possible. The intensity of hyperfocus. The creativity of a mind that connects things others miss. The complicated art of masking, and the freedom of putting it down. Late diagnosis and the sense of finally coming home to yourself. The double empathy problem. Menopause and hormones colliding with a neurodivergent brain - and how to work with it, not against it. Meryem brings both clinical insight and lived experience to every conversation - and in Season 2, she's joined by expert guests from sport, media, medicine, therapy, and education, all bringing their own hard-won wisdom. Including a dedicated episode on neurodivergent menopause, because that story deserves more than a footnote. Whether you're neurodivergent yourself and ready to hear your experience reflected with honesty and respect, or you love someone who is and want to really understand them - you're in the right place. Beyond the labels. Beyond the surface. Real conversations about what it means to be wired differently - and to build a life that works with that, not around it. So let's keep the conversation going. Together. New episodes every three weeks. Watch on YouTube, listen on Apple Podcasts or Spotify. Hosted by Meryem Hassan | dyscourse.org
