The Neurodivergent Woman

The Neurodivergent Woman
Two Australian clinicians -- Monique Mitchelson, a clinical psychologist, and Michelle Livock, a clinical neuropsychologist -- host what might be the most evidence-based neurodiversity podcast aimed at women. The credentials are real and the research is current, but the delivery is warm rather than academic. Episodes typically run 50 minutes to over an hour, featuring guests who range from specialists in EDS and POTS to advocates for high-support-needs autism to experts on gender diversity and neurodivergence. Recent topics have included domestic violence in neurodivergent relationships, breastfeeding and infant sleep, and the particular challenges of being neurodivergent in rural and remote areas. That breadth is part of the appeal -- this show goes places that most neurodiversity content does not. Listeners consistently praise the calm, non-pathologizing tone and the fact that both hosts clearly do their homework. With 87 episodes and a 4.8-star rating from 134 reviews, the audience is engaged and growing. The show is particularly good for women who want information grounded in actual research rather than TikTok-style oversimplifications. Smart, careful, inclusive. The hosts are open about the ways Australian healthcare systems specifically fail neurodivergent women, which resonates with international listeners dealing with similar systemic gaps. Refreshingly thorough and consistently well-produced.
