Listen "Invisible problems"
Episode Synopsis
Without vision correction, I truly cannot see how many finger’s you’re holding up. I can barely see how many fingers I’M holding up.But I almost exclusively wear contact lenses, so even people who know me well are sometimes surprised to find out I'm short-sighted at all.Glasses are an indicator of the problem AND the solution. Contact lenses quietly solve the problem without anybody knowing you even have one.There's a big difference between visible and invisible help.Following the wonderful reaction to our “I think I have ADHD” episode a couple of weeks ago, Col and I chat about the changing landscape around neurodiversity, and how bringing visibility Shame stops many of us from sharing our differences and burdens. The more we see others share safely, without judgement, the easier it becomes.If you can, be the glasses of your coping strategies, not the contact lenses.
