EVER TAKEN A MOMENT TO EXPLORE YOUR SENSORY NEEDS?
WE ALL HAVE OUR OWN PREFERENCES AND IF YOU’RE NEURODIVERGENT THESE MAY BE HEIGHTENED.
For many neurodivergent people, sensitivity to sensory input - like noise, light, or clothing - can quickly dysregulate the nervous system, leading to overwhelm.
Learning how to recognise and meet sensory needs helps create calm, focus, and wellbeing - and reveals the unique strengths sensory sensitivity can bring.
Hosted by Jess Rad, Founder of The WomenHood, and joined by a variety of diverse speakers to share their stoires, NeuroCurious is here to normalise all neurotypes, whether you’re discovering, supporting, or simply curious.
Our second event will help you:
Understand your own sensory sensitivities and how to advocate for your needs
Step into the lived experience hearing Unspoken Stories
Explore practical ways to self-advocate for yourself and support those around you
To make the in person event truly accessible, we’re partnering with Joyfully Different - expect thoughtful touches like colour-coded networking lanyards, a fidget toy library, a quiet room, and a welcoming, inclusive environment.
NeuroCurious is here to normalise all neurotypes and mainstream the conversation so everyone feels able to learn in a safe and brave space
Who is it for?
Individuals
Maybe you've just heard about neurodiversity and it resonates deeply, but you're still on a journey of self-discovery and battling the negative self-talk.
Family. Friends, Allies
Perhaps your child, partner or friend is struggling, recently diagnosed or on a waitlist and you want to understand better how to support them.
Leaders and Workplaces
Feel like you “should” be doing more but fearful of getting it wrong? Show your support of diverse minds and fellow neurodivergent employees and bring your teams to learn together.

We understand that large events can sometimes be overwhelming. That’s why we have partnered with Joyfully Different and Platfr9m to ensure your sensory needs can be met. We will have a quiet room available throughout the event, traffic light lanyards so you can manage your interactions, and the WomenHood team around to support you. You can step in and out at any time, and there is absolutely no pressure to stay in the main space if you need a break.

No, there is no expectation for social interaction if you don’t want to. We will have some anonymous interactions via Slido, where you can participate using your phone. But if you prefer to just listen and observe, that’s completely fine.

Don’t worry, we understand this completely! The WomenHood team will be present on arrival and throughout the event to offer support, answer questions, and ensure that everyone feels welcome and comfortable. If you need any assistance, just let us know.
