<p><strong>Making It Make Sense: Building a Neuroaffirming Business from the Inside Out with Claire Britton</strong></p><p><br></p><p>✨ In This Episode</p><p>Hello and what an absolute cracker of a conversation this one is. Claire Britton is the founding director of Neuroinclusion, an OT and a neurodivergent business owner who has built a team of 20-odd therapists on a foundation that most organisations still can&#39;t spell — genuine neuroinclusion, not just the poster on the wall.</p><p>This is a conversation about what happens when you stop waiting for permission and start building the thing you wish had existed. And what that actually looks like from the inside.</p><p><br></p><p>🧠 What We Talk About</p><ul><li>How a contact-napping newborn, COVID lockdowns, and a Perth relocation collided into burnout — and the autism + ADHD diagnosis Claire had somehow missed across seven years of clinical practice (~00:09:00)</li><li>Why ADHD medication was the turning point that made starting a business possible and the specific moment Claire stopped apologising for the way her brain works (~00:13:00)</li><li>The colour-coded caseload system Claire pitched to corporate and was told absolutely not and then built herself anyway (~00:13:00–00:15:00)</li><li>What happened when Claire fitted out a clinic with individual rooms for each staff member (books said neuro people need their own space) and the first thing everyone did (~00:18:00)</li><li>Why &quot;done is better than perfect&quot; and &quot;when you stuff up, not if&quot; are the actual operating principles of a neurodivergent team and what that means for accountability (~00:25:00)</li><li>The anger-versus-hope conversation: what&#39;s fuelling the neurodiversity movement, what&#39;s stalling it, and why Claire thinks unity and multi-disciplinary collaboration are the missing pieces (~00:33:00)</li></ul><p><br></p><p>💬 Memorable Moments</p><p>&quot;Making things make sense for you is more important than making them make sense on a piece of paper.&quot; — Claire Britton</p><p><br></p><p>&quot;We don&#39;t talk about if you stuff up. We talk about when you stuff up. Because being neurodivergent, being in a neurodiverse team — let&#39;s just cut the rubbish.&quot; — Claire Britton</p><p><br></p><p>&quot;The most people are stuck because they have one person in their little rowboat going upstream. We need to add more people to this rowboat.&quot; — Claire Britton</p><p><br></p><p>📚 Resources + Mentions</p><ul><li>
