In this Shameless Careers episode, haroon (LBS MBA, ex-startups) shares how two failed probations and years of shame finally made sense after a dual adult autism & ADHD diagnosis - opening the door to self-acceptance, self-awareness, and real career purpose.In this candid, emotional episode, we talk about:- What it’s like to keep hearing the feedback that you “have flashes of brilliance, but your behaviour is erratic and it's too much to have to manage you”- The adult autism & ADHD diagnosis: the two-hour cry, relief, and self-compassion- Neurodiversity at work: why some brains may thrive in chaos, but struggle with routine- Discovering purpose: haroon’s pivot to a creative career - where his brain truly thrives- Life post the creative pivot: financial realities, the long game and the power of seizing the day This episode is a reminder that we’re all wired differently; that some careers may fit our brains better than others; that raising awareness of neurodivergence matters; and that the most important thing is to be kind - to others and to yourself.I hope you like this episode.
