“I’m a Neuro-Divergent Peacock!”

 Adah (pronounced Ah-Dah) Parris has many titles including
Life and Creative coach, Speaker and Artist. So many things to
tell you about our lovely conversation! Nigerian/Guyanese Adah
who is based in Southeast London says that she has ‘found
herself’ during menopause. A late ADHD and Autism diagnosis
helped the final puzzle pieces fall into place.


 Adah shares her struggles coping with fibroids in her teen
years, an endometriosis diagnosis in her twenties and how,
together with her mother’s help and the incredible medical team
at Guys and St Thomas’s hospital (S/o to the 'G’s' at the McNair
centre), she learned to make health and lifestyle choices that
worked best for her after her hysterectomy.


Adah has some great tips around self-intimacy, awareness, and
advocacy that I’m sure you’ll find helpful.


 Tune in for this chat and out why Adah’s friends were
convinced she’d fronted a national campaign for a well know brand
of glasses a few years ago!


This episode is now available to watch on YouTube and listen on
iTunes, Spotify, Amazon or wherever you get your listening
pleasure.

If Adah’s story strikes a chord do share this episode with others
who may benefit from her words and advice.
