A podcast about improvement, neurodiversity, and whatever else I feel worth sharing or discussing. I've always been fascinated with finding smarter ways to do things. It doesn't really matter whether I'm improving a business process, making coffee, or dealing with being an autistic ADHD-er ]]>

Nancy Beers - Why Work should be more Playful - #2
Nancy Beers is one of my favourite people, and she's on a mission to make work more playful. We covered a ton in this episode. About how to educate about cybersecurity (and how not to); why we should care more about chronotypes; why we should talk about menstruation more openly; and why it pays off for women to align their work with their cycle. And we talk about her experience in figuring out later in life she had ADHD, and get into the weeds on how her bullet journaling helps her dealing with ADHD.
