Episode 68 - Rewriting the Story: Jessica Horner on Letting Go of the Deficit Lens
Episode 68
Tuesday, 30 December, 2025
Three years after her first appearance, Jessica is back on the podcast for an honest catch‑up about life six‑plus years post‑diagnosis. We talk about what’s shifted, what hasn’t, and how understanding our neurodivergence continues to shape our mental health, identity, and day‑to‑day lives.We touch on ADHD, dyscalculia, reframing autism and ADHD away from deficit language, and the ongoing work of making sense of our past and present through a more compassionate lens. It’s a grounded, reflective conversation between two late‑identified neurodivergent adults comparing notes on what it actually means to grow into this understanding over time.If this podcast supports you or helps you feel seen, you can help sustain the work by joining the community on Patreon.
