Despite hearing multiple voices every day, Jed has gone on to become a respected leader, speaker and advocate for neurodiversity in the workplace. This episode also explores:✅ Living with psychosis and auditory hallucinations✅ Neurodiversity in the workplace✅ Mental health recovery and resilience✅ How employers can better support neurodivergent employees✅ Why sharing your story matters✅ Automation vs AI in talent acquisition✅ Building a successful career despite adversityJed's story is a powerful reminder that people are capable of far more than a diagnosis, and that understanding creates opportunities for everyone.
