Empowering Neurodiversity in the workplace

Hi, I am Becca!

I'm Becca, a passionate advocate for neurodiversity and understanding ADHD in the workplace. Living with ADHD (combined presentation) myself, I bring a unique blend of professional experiences and personal insights to the conversation about creating inclusive, productive work environments. Equity in the workplace is especially important for us as neurodiverse folk; if given the adjustments and support we need, we can not only survive, but thrive at work.

My professional journey


My career path has been varied, in true ADHD style! From my early days in customer relations to roles in sales and account management, I've always excelled in building relationships and understanding people's needs. My time at a FTSE 100 bank gave me a solid foundation for navigating large organisations and the politics of the office environment, and I then had to adapt quickly to the drastic changes of the Covid-19 Pandemic Lockdown. It was during this time, recognising the disruption to my routine, hyperfocusing on work outside of my core hours, and my inability to finish any tasks to completion, that I realised something wasn’t working for my brain.

Throughout my career, I’ve recognised that I was struggling, but never quite understood why. I saw so much of my own journey in the struggles I heard from other neurodiverse people, and I wanted to find a way that I could tangibly make a difference. After my own diagnosis in early 2024, I was inspired to become an ADHD Coach with Leanne Maskell's ADHD Works, and led to me being headhunted for Inclusive Change Ltd as Support Specialist.

You’re Not Meant to Do This Alone - The Power of Community for Neurodivergent Women in Menopause

April 13, 20252 min read

Let’s be honest: many of us have been doing life in solo mode for years.

Especially if you’re neurodivergent. Especially if you’re in menopause.

You may have spent decades figuring things out by yourself. Masking. Coping. Pushing through. Creating systems and strategies. Keeping your struggles invisible because no one else seemed to understand.

But what if the reason menopause feels so much isn’t because you’re broken…

…it’s because you’ve been trying to carry it alone?

The Myth of “I Should Be Able to Cope”

There’s a deeply ingrained message that many late-diagnosed ADHD and autistic women carry: “I should be able to manage this.”

Whether that’s the brain fog, the overwhelm, the crashing energy, or the sudden tears at 2pm, we assume we’re meant to figure it out, quietly and competently.

But here’s the truth: nobody copes well in isolation. Especially during a neurological transition like menopause. Especially when you’re neurodivergent.

You Deserve a Community That Gets It

Not every space understands what it’s like to live with executive dysfunction, sensory overload, emotional dysregulation, and hormonal upheaval, all at once.

But when you find a space where people do get it?

Something softens. Something shifts.

You stop second-guessing yourself. You start laughing again. You realise you’re not the only one who can’t remember the end of her own sentence.

You realise you’re not weird. You’re wired.

Support Isn’t a Luxury. It’s a Lifeline.

Support doesn’t always mean therapy or medication or productivity hacks.

It can mean:

A quiet space where no one makes you mask

Hearing “me too” from someone who really understands

Learning tools that are made for your brain, not just the average brain

Being validated instead of questioned

Knowing there’s no fixing to be done, just understanding to be gained

Why Community Matters in Midlife

In menopause, many of us feel like we’re unraveling. But what if the unraveling is just a revealing?

What if community isn’t just where we find comfort, but where we find clarity?

What if being seen, exactly as we are, is the most powerful kind of support there is?

From Isolation to Insight

The more we talk, the more we learn we’re not alone.

That’s why we created the From Brain Fog to Clarity workshop—not just to provide tools and knowledge, but to open the door to deeper support, whether through coaching, peer spaces, or simply not being the only one in the room who needs subtitles for meetings and a nap after the school run.

This Is Your Invitation

If you’ve been managing menopause and neurodivergence in isolation, this is your reminder:

You don’t have to do it alone anymore.

Let’s start with clarity. Let’s build something that lasts.
