    S.E.N.D. Help! With AuDHDacious Humans!

    Martha and Jenni met as teachers at the same progressive school where their kids were students and became each other's children's key teachers. Jenni ran mini shopping trolley races down corridors with Martha's son for vestibular regulation. Martha provided Jenni's daughters with peanut balls to bounce on so they could focus enough to write and calculate Maths whilst reciting favourite Bluey episodes. Despite 40 years combined teaching experience and knowing exactly what neurodivergent children needed, they both realised their own AuDHD/PDA kids weren't school-shaped. Not even alternative-school-shaped. So over 3 years ago, they left their teaching jobs and the education system and started their real education. When they couldn't find home ed clubs that could accommodate their demand-avoidant children, they created Make & Create Club: a flexible, low-demand space where rule makers, rule breakers thrive. They offer community, advocacy and the freedom to be yourself. Now through AuDHDacious Humans, they provide online support for discombobulated families to understand sensory systems, reframe behaviour, and ditch systems that break them. They've lived this experience too, as late-diagnosed AuDHDers, parenting pressure- sensitive children, unravelling everything they thought they knew about parenting and education. Some people call it a journey. They call it a reckoning.

    Celebrating Our Weird! With Holly Matthews

    As we all know, the reason I named the podcast AuDHD Or Just A Bit Weird is because that's what I've always been called throughout my life and always in a derogatory manner... But since starting the podcast I've reclaimed weird as a positive thing and this is where the amazing Holly Matthews comes into the picture... Holly Matthews is a former TV actress (Byker Grove, Waterloo Road, Casualty) and singer (Signed to Sony at 18, appeared on TOTP’s, MTV, Disney) who learnt how to use her ‘weird’ to stand out from the crowd.After the death of her husband to brain cancer in 2017, when she was just 32, the mum of 2 began her mission to help others to embrace their own ‘weird’, build their confidence and feel ‘more happy and less crappy’.The Happy Me Project runs events across the UK, is an online coaching membership, podcast and has seen Holly asked to speak and create workshops for Aldi, SEND prison, Sainsburys and wellbeing festivals across the UK.
