このコンテンツについて
In this powerful episode of the PaPSC Podcast, hosts Beck Schultz and Abigail Boccardi sit down with Claire Twomey—professional ADHD coach, peer supporter, and passionate advocate for neurodivergent folks. What started as one conversation turned into two, thanks to some technical hiccups. But the result is a rich, unfiltered blend of both sessions that we couldn’t bear to separate.
Together, we explore what it means to live, work, and thrive as a neurodivergent person in systems not built for us. Claire shares her insights on self-diagnosis, the limitations of the medical model, coaching as an empowering alternative, and why “pills don’t teach the skills.” We talk about identity, burnout, accommodations (and why that word needs a rethink), and the deep need for compassion in education, employment, and support services.
It’s longer than usual—but trust us, it’s worth it.
Note: This episode contains light editing to preserve the authenticity of both recording sessions. Thanks for listening and being part of the conversation.
