The Neurodivergent Experience

Jordan James and Simon Scott

IN BRIEF

A current lived-experience podcast hosted by Jordan James and Simon Scott, exploring autism, ADHD, masking, identity, relationships, work, emotional regulation and everyday neurodivergent life.

FROM THE MEMBER

Two hosts talking honestly about autism, ADHD and everyday neurodivergent life — masking, late identification, relationships, work, burnout, the lot.
Conversation rather than expertise, and that’s the appeal. There’s a particular relief in hearing something you’d assumed was just you described casually by someone else. Worth dipping into rather than working through in order, and worth reading the episode descriptions first, because some go to difficult places.

OUR REVIEW

The Neurodivergent Experience is a weekly podcast led by Jordan James and Simon Scott, combining lived experience, guests and discussion of autism, ADHD and wider neurodivergent life. Topics include masking, late identification, relationships, work, burnout, identity and emotional regulation. The show remains actively updated and currently holds a 4.8/5 rating on Apple Podcasts UK. Its strength is candid conversation rather than clinical authority, so personal experiences and commentary should not be treated as universal or as research evidence.
