The Weighted Blanket

The Weighted Blanket is a podcast for neurodivergent people and the families who love them — warm, honest and built entirely from lived experience. Hosted by Claire, a mum of three diagnosed with ADHD at 36, navigating autism, AuDHD, sensory processing disorder and a PDA profile across her family. This isn't a clinical space. It's a real one. Every episode covers what it actually feels like — diagnoses and waiting lists, EHCP battles, school meetings, masking, burnout and the NHS. And alongside the hard stuff, the joy. The moments our children floor us. The humour that gets you through. The community that makes it lighter. We also talk about change. Because the systems failing neurodivergent families need to be better — and this community is going to be part of making that happen. You are not broken. You are not alone. The blanket is wide enough. New episodes every week. Join our community:
