Who is Dan Wilkins

What happens when you spend your whole career supporting neurodivergent people—then discover, decades in, that you’re one of them? In this episode of Unapologetically Neurodivergent, James sits down with Dan Wilkins (@managing_on_the_spectrum): nurse, social worker, senior manager, and late-diagnosed ND powerhouse. Dan shares the raw truth about getting his diagnosis at 42 after years in local government and the NHS, the messy reality of unmasking at work, and why he’s now on a mission to tear down barriers for neurodivergent people everywhere. Expect real talk about surviving school, thriving in senior roles, and the fire that comes from finally understanding your own brain.We dig into ND hell moments, the myth of “not enough,” and what organisations get wrong (and right) about supporting their neurodivergent staff.

Who is Happie

This week I’m joined by Happie, a neurodivergent PT and the powerhouse behind Lasses That Lift — a strength space built for “quiet weirdos” who hate the chaos of commercial gyms. We talk about getting her ADHD diagnosis only last month, breaking free from toxic fitness rules, learning to rest without guilt, and how neurodivergent brains can actually thrive in strength training when the environment fits us. Expect real talk about dopamine, burnout, “clean eating” lies, and how sometimes doing one thing is better than doing nothing. 👀 If you’ve ever felt out of place in a loud gym or been told to “push through the pain” — this one’s for you.
