    “Holding myself to neurotypical standards as a neurodivergent entrepreneur” with Martha Barnard-Rae

    (PSA: I’ve got a cold so excuse my voice!) 😆 Martha Barnard-Rae is a TEDx speaker, copywriter, and the CEO of Word Candy. In this episode, we chat about Martha's late diagnosis of ADHD and autism, the challenges of running a business while being neurodivergent, and how she’s adapted the way she does business to suit her individual needs.   Martha opens up about the systemic failings in recognising neurodivergence in women and girls, and the importance of building a business and life tailored to her own requirements.   This episode is a call for empathy, understanding, and making radical changes to better accommodate diverse needs.   Links from the show:   Save $50 on Design Your VIP Week: emancopyco.com/vip-podcast Martha’s website: wordcandy.com.au Martha’s Instagram: @wordcandycomms Martha’s podcast: The One That Works For You Podcast: https://pod.link/1676212620Martha’s TEDx Talk - ADHD in Girls and Women: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ybk2IzwV6Zg&ab_channel=TEDxTalks  Find the transcript of this episode on my site, emancopyco.com/podcast    If you loved this episode, take a screenshot, post it on Instagram, and tell everyone you know that this is the podcast to listen to.
