"It's Just Logistics" | Louise Pentland on Autism, Divorce, Being a Mum, & Living With Loss
Out of Love with Hazel Hayes
13,205 views
Louise Pentland is an expert storyteller, iconic business woman, author, vlogger, mum of two, and most of all, one of my dearest friends. This past year we were both diagnosed perimenopausal and autistic (a classic combo for many women our age) and in this episode, we'll talk about everything from discovering neurodivergence in adulthood, to early childhood trauma, to divorce, to chaotic birthing stories. That all sounds very heavy, but don’t worry, we somehow manage to laugh our way through!
I'm making a solo episode soon about AuDHD so if you have any questions to do with that, or my creative process in general, please leave them in the comments!
