Episode 9 - Alex Knight

from Home/Chez Nous · host Yannick Hébert

What if the problem was never the person… but the environment they were trying to fit into?In this episode, I sit down with Alex Knight — neurodiversity specialist and founder of Iron & Ember — to unpack a journey shaped by both a visible condition and an invisible one.Diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes at just six years old… and ADHD much later in life, Alex shares what it’s like to grow up knowing something is “off” — without having the words to explain it.This isn’t just about awareness.It’s about rethinking how we work, how we lead, and how many people we’ve been misunderstanding all along.If you’ve ever felt like you had to work twice as hard just to feel “normal”… this conversation will hit.And if you lead people — you might not hear this the same way twice.#Neurodiversity #ADHD #podcastCanada #Leadership #FutureOfWork #WorkplaceCulture #MentalHealth #InclusiveLeadership
