Show Notes
This week on Exchanges, I sit down with Aisling Smith for a conversation that is equal parts personal and deeply important. Aisling shares her journey of discovering her own neurodivergence later in life, navigating the experience of raising a son with autism and ADHD, and what both of those things taught her about the way we design our workplaces and our world.
We explore the very real strengths that neurodivergent minds bring to the table, what it actually takes to build inclusive environments where those strengths can thrive, and the economic case for embracing neurodiversity in the workplace, because it isn't just the right thing to do, it's smart business.
