Unmasking Neurodivergence: How Different Brains Decode the World
About this episode
In this eye-opening episode of the Behavioural Intelligence series, we sit down with Ruth Fenton legal management consultant, neurodivergent mentor, and certified chaos-tamer to explore what it really means to think differently. From the misunderstood signs of ADHD and autism to the silent strategies of high masking, Ruth shares her raw, witty, and enlightening perspective on living and thriving with neurodivergence in a neurotypical world.

We unpack why traditional interviews disadvantage divergent minds, why stimming is a misunderstood superpower, and how being brutally honest isn’t rude—it’s efficient. If you want to sharpen your behavioural lens and understand the 'why' behind 'odd' workplace interactions, this is the episode that changes your view for good.
