I’m an inventor/entrepreneur, and in 2022, I was diagnosed Autistic/ADHD. My story is typical of an undiagnosed, unsupported neurodivergent person; bullying, unemployment, suicide, addiction, homelessness & trauma. It has taken 41 years to finally be myself.

We are different & in fact these differences have changed the world. [Just ask Newton, Einstein, Edison, Turing, Darwin, Jobs, Grandin, Christie, Curie, Mozart, Monroe, Ali, Elvis]

Enough with the stigma, the shame, the myths, the exclusion & stereotypes! We need the truth, to hear the facts & spotlight the strengths & skills to break the cycle.

In January 2024, we launched The Hidden 20%, a media-led charity dedicated to raising awareness & support for the 1.6 Billion neurodivergents.

The response has been overwhelming, powerful, and galvanising. We’ve seen firsthand the impact of our work and the profound need for continued advocacy and support. My story & so many others’ can be avoided.

Join us to help rewrite the future for people who think differently.

  • "My new favourite podcast! This is an incredible podcast, with a wonderfully calming, open and engaging host. I’ve eagerly binge-watched all episodes so far, and can’t wait for new ones! It’s transformative for someone with newly diagnosed neurodivergence to hear the life experiences of others presented in such a ‘normalised’ way that celebrates our diversity without pushing the superpower narrative. A huge thank you for making it!

  • "Brilliant! Only part way through and I feel like this is what I have been looking for! Ben is an excellent host, the guests so far are real, inspirational and welcoming. The first podcast that I have listened to about neurodivergence that doesn’t bash the neurotypical throughout. I cannot wait to listen to more. Thank you for creating it!"

  • "Thank you! The podcast I needed! As a recently diagnosed adult with ADHD it brings me piece of mind and hope to hear how people work with and manage their neurodivergence. If you are neurodivergent, suspect you are, know someone who is, or want to be the best support to those around you, I highly, highly recommend you listen to this podcast. It’s awesome and insightful. Do yourself a favour and have a listen. 5 stars!"
