Differently Brained

We are delighted to announce that in 2023 we will be launching Differently Brained, the podcast where no brain is the same. Differently Brained is an own voices podcast where each fortnight we interview a neurodivergent guest or a guest who has lived experience with mental health challenges.

We talk to a diverse range of people with a focus on telling individual stories and championing the different ways we all exist in the world. We hope that these discussions will help to break down the stigmas and misconceptions around neurodivergence and mental health, and normalise these conversations in our community.

Before we launch properly, we figure it is only fair to give you guys a bit more insight into the podcast and, of course, who we are. In this second mini intro episode we share our passions, motivations and hopes for the podcast in this host Q&A. And we hint at a few of the guests we have coming for Season 1 and chat about the bonus episodes we hope to record across the year!

Show credits

This episode was produced by Lachlan Rutherford and Jacinta Dietrich.
