In this episode, Ben sits down with Amanda Perry, ADHD business
mentor and author, to discuss the UK government’s Access to Work
scheme and the controversy sparked by a recent Daily Mail
article. The piece claims that influencers labeled
"sickfluencers" are driving a surge in applications, particularly
from self-diagnosed ADHD’ers. Amanda, one of the individuals
named in the article, joins Ben to share her side of the story.

In this chat with Ben, Amanda discusses the purpose of the
scheme, who it truly benefits, why ADHD is often misunderstood,
and how the media can influences people's views on it.

NB: We reached out to the Daily Mail /
Mail Online for a response to this podcast but received no reply.
The invitation is still open.
