In this episode of the Diversity Rocks Podcast, Liz talks with Ione about living with Tourette’s, breaking down common myths and helping listeners better understand experiences such as coprolalia and copropraxia.
They explore the real impact Tourette’s can have on everyday life, including the exhaustion of trying to suppress tics, the challenges people face when systems and services fail to support them, and the importance of awareness and understanding.
Alongside the challenges, the conversation also celebrates humour, joy and resilience, as Ione shares her ambitions and reflects on the reality of having a “spiky profile” – strengths and struggles existing side by side.
A warm, honest and eye-opening conversation about inclusion, misunderstanding, and making space for people to be fully themselves.
