Tom Cochrane to become first AFL player with Tourette syndrome, in this edition of The Conversation Hour we discuss what this means for people living with the condition.We also look at the role of social media influencers on the campaign trail, what underpins the increase in measles outbreaks and ask whether the climate has taken a bit of a back seat in this years budget.

More than 13 million people in this country can be classed as disabled, often in ways we don't think or talk about – sometimes in ways which even they are not fully conscious of. The spectrum of mental and physical disability is far wider than most of us have ever thought about. It's an elephant in the room - we can all see it (unless we're visually impaired) but none of us talk about it (unless we have Tourette Syndrome).If you're uncomfortable with these jokes, don't worry, this show isn't always going to be comfortable. But it will be subversive, celebratory, and absolutely unlike anything else you've ever heard on the radio – or, very likely, anywhere else.Under the stewardship of sassy American import, Spring Day, The 13 Million Club brings together a remarkable range of talents and a collection of fresh perspectives in a smorgasbord of stand-up and spiky consumer pieces.From dwarfism to Parkinson's, via cystic fibrosis, hearing loss, Tourette's, life in a wheelchair and more besides, we laugh at and with our spectacular cast, which includes Paul Sinha, Will Robbins, Esther Manito and Jess Thom. While they laugh at the attitudes of others, and the madness of a world which is struggling to catch up with - let alone accommodate - them.Produced by Lianne Coop and Mark Watson.

More than any other episode in our 275 plus now, this one hits home for me and is the most personal version of me you are likely ever to get on the show. If you've listened to our commercials over the month of September, you should already be familiar with the UnSeen/UnHeard Anthology on Kickstarter, a 64-page anthology that collects 12 new comic short stories about dealing with disabilities or being neurodivergent. I fall into both those camps and rarely get to chat with comics creators who do so it should be no surprise that I'm excited to talk with today's first time guests, co-editors Aubrey Lyn Jeppson and C.K. Carpenter. The challenges that creators with disabilities face is numerous, I've personally turned down quite a few comics projects as a colorist I'd love to have worked on because I didn't want to commit and ultimately let people down and regular listeners will know that from time to time I have to take a break and Jimmy kindly makes sure to keep us on a regular release schedule here on the podcast. These are our stories and this is a unique window into a rare opportunity many disabled creators have to tell them. Please consider backing the project at the link below. unSEEN/unHEARD Anthology on Kickstarter Need a PFP? Make sure to hit up Lane Lloyd Synopsis From the editors that brought you Scott Snyder Presents Tales from the Cloakroom vol. 1 and the Ringo-nominated creator of Etheres comes unSEEN/unHEARD: Disability & Neurodivergence, a 64-page anthology that collects 12 new slice of life, romance, sci-fi, fantasy, and horror short comics about dealing with disabilities or being neurodivergent.   It was vital to us that stories about neurodivergent people and those with disabilities be told by people with those conditions. Similarly, creators with these conditions often find it difficult to make comics consistently, from financial barriers to constant interruptions to the creative process because their energy must go to simply...existing. As such, we wanted to produce this anthology to give those who might not usually get to tell their stories a platform to do so.  The anthology covers a wide spectrum of conditions: AuDHD, Ankylosing Spondilitis, Traumatic Brain Injury, Dyslexia, Spinal Cord Injury, Misophonia associated with Autism Spectrum Disorder, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, Tourette Syndrome, Blindness, Fibromyalgia, CPTSD, and more. Furthermore, intersectionality and representation of other marginalized communities is a pillar of Unseen Alchemy Publishing. As such, expect to see 2SLGBTQIA+ and BIPOC representation in our stories.  Anas Abdulhak, Aubrey Lyn Jeppson, and C.K. Carpenter comprise the editorial team. All three of us either have a disability ourselves or are neurodivergent, which was important to us in the formation of this anthology. All three have experience running crowdfunding campaigns: Aubrey Lyn Jeppson and C.K. Carpenter produced the first volume of Scott Snyder Presents Tales from the Cloakroom, and Anas Abdulhak has handled campaigns for such comics as Kill My Boyfriend and Objects in the Mirror. Our episode sponsors From Within on Kickstarter From Within is a martial arts revenge graphic novel about a slave fighting his way through a deadly tournament where the rules shift at the whims of a tyrannical emperor. It's a mash-up of the high-impact action sequences of Bruce Lee's films with the paranoid thriller undercurrent found in Ed Brubaker & Sean Phillips' Sleeper series. Late pledges are enabled if you happen to hear about it after the campaign officially ends. Arkenforge Play TTRPG games? Make sure to check out our partner Arkenforge.

There is a lot of misinformation and stigma around neurodivergence that can create extra barriers and challenges for our families. This is especially true for Tourette syndrome, which is often referred to as “the most misunderstood well-known condition,” often the punchline of jokes on late-night TV and sitcoms. Its in large part because of these misconceptions and difficulty accessing resources that my guest today, Michele Turk, found herself at a loss when her 11 year old son Michael was diagnosed with Tourette. In her new memoir, What Makes Him Tic? A Memoir of Parenting a Child with Tourette Syndrome, she writes vulnerably about the challenges they faced as a family in getting the right support, navigating school, social, emotional, and academic challenges, and how she evolved from thinking she had to fix Michael to understanding her job was to accept him and help him do the same. She wanted the world to know he was so much more than the boy who shouted obscenities hundreds of times a day. Because Michele has worked as a journalist for three decades, covering parenting, health, and education for outlets like Parents, Parenting, Elle, USA Weekend, The Washington Post, Brain, Child, and Next Avenue, she was compelled to write about her journey as she was in it, and that close up, honest perspective, blended with ample reporting on Tourette make What Makes Him Tic a compelling and informative read. In this episode, Michele talks with us about the misconceptions about Tourette's that she came across often in her work as a journalist and her private life as a parent. We also talked about what some of the early symptoms were and how they managed them, how differently she and her husband approached the diagnosis and what it took for them to get on the same page, how her son's diagnosis impacted her daughter, and more.   Things you'll learn How parenting a child with Tourette syndrome be challenging and isolating, and why is it important to trust your gut and seek appropriate medical care What the most common misconceptions of Tourette are What makes navigating the school system so challenging for children with Tourette Ideas for navigating complex sibling dynamics in a mixed neurotype household How finding a passion or interest can help build self-esteem and provide a sense of belonging for children with Tourette   Resources mentioned Michele Turk's website What Makes Him Tic?: A Memoir of Parenting a Child with Tourette Syndrome by Michele Turk Yale Child Study Center Tic and OCD Program Designated Center of Excellence Debbie and Her Husband Derin Talk About Their Journey of Parenting a Differently Wired Child (Tilt Parenting episode) Tourette Association of America Tourette Association Conference (Tic Con) Dr. Robert King Billie Eilish on Living with Tourette Syndrome (Harper's Bazaar) How American Idol's James Durbin Manages Life With Tourette's and Asperger's (Tourette Association of America)   Learn more about your ad choices.

Felix Poyel is a passionate Consciousness Coach dedicated to helping individuals navigate their spiritual and personal development journeys. He identifies not just as a coach, but as a spiritual being experiencing life in a human form, continually seeking truth and self-improvement. Felix's life story is one of remarkable transformation and resilience. In his early years, he grappled with significant challenges, including addiction to smoking, excessive drinking, and pornography. He also faced the complexities of living with Tourette Syndrome and ADHD, which led to periods of severe depression, emotional breakdowns, and chronic physical ailments like debilitating stomachaches. The dissolution of his parents' marriage when he was just three years old and the relentless bullying he faced at school added to his emotional turmoil. These difficulties culminated in profound personal losses: the death of his father on Christmas Eve when Felix was only 14, followed by the loss of his beloved dog two years later. These experiences left indelible scars and fostered a sense of hopelessness. Despite these hardships, Felix's journey is a testament to the power of personal growth and spiritual awakening. Through dedicated self-reflection and a commitment to personal development, he overcame his addictions and learned to live in harmony with his conditions. His transformation included a shift from unhealthy, unconscious living to a state of greater awareness and health. He embraced forgiveness, moved past thoughts of self-harm and harming others, and took full responsibility for his life. Felix's dedication to self-improvement and spirituality has not only healed many of his past traumas but also led him to find love and build the healthiest relationship of his life. He went from feeling stuck in negative patterns and environments to constructing his dream life, marked by continuous learning and self-discovery. Today, Felix shares his profound journey through YouTube videos, podcasting, and coaching, inspiring others to believe in their ability to change and grow. His story underscores the transformative power of investing in oneself, both in time and resources, and finding the right mentors and community. Felix Poyel exemplifies how a life once filled with despair can be turned into one of purpose and fulfillment through conscious effort and spiritual awakening.

Episode 340 of The VentureFizz Podcast features Steph Johnson, Co-Founder & CEO at Multiplayer. Steph is an inspiration. As discussed in this interview, her background might not be the prototypical tech CEO profile for a few reasons. First, she came up through the agency world and then ran comms in-house for major tech companies like DigitalOcean and MongoDB. Second, she is a female founder of a dev tools platform startup and yes, we need more female founders. And third, she has a neurological condition called Tourette Syndrome. All of these factors have ultimately given her unique skills to thrive in her current role. Multiplayer is a visual collaborative platform that makes it easy for engineering teams to design, develop, and manage distributed software. The company is venture backed and on a mission to create better ways for developers to work. In this episode of our podcast, we cover: * Steph's background story and how she got her career started with agencies in NYC. * Her decision to move in-house to run comms at DigitalOcean and MongoDB, plus what she learned at each company like the importance of a developer community. * Advice for making the shift from agency to in-house roles. * Founding Multiplayer with Tom Johnson, her Co-Founder, CTO, and husband… and why being married was a strategic advantage when they raised capital. * The details on the Mutliplayer platform and its beta release. * Advice on the storytelling element for a company building technical products. * And so much more.

In honor of Tourette's Awareness Month, I'm releasing one of the top five episodes. This episode features singer-songwriter Dylan Brady. His music is like no other artist. It's somewhere between pop and country. Diagnosed with Tourette Syndrome at the age of 13, Dylan found opportunities within his differences. He began speaking in schools all over the US and even Canada, spreading not only awareness of Tourette Syndrome but people's differences in general, saying, “Everybody's got something. And we have to accept ourselves and accept others, regardless of what that “something,” is.” This opened up opportunities to be on Disney Channel, work with Zac Brown Band and his Camp Southern Ground, work alongside Rascal Flatts, and so much more.

Speaking with Stephen was just such a delight. He's easy going, insightful, entertaining and talented.  He clearly loves his kraft. He's an accomplished                                                                                                                              pianist, drummer, guitarist and vocalist. My guest studied jazz, pop and classical music genres. When Stephen was a young boy, he saw the Beatles on the Ed Sullivan Show, and that was the beginning ofhis musical adventures. He couldn't get enough.  He not only credits his mother for guiding him on his musical journey, but it was also his grandmother's music box that intrigued him to no end, then and still today.And here he is today, over 60 years  working in the music industry. He's recorded eleven albums and his most recent, release in 2023 titled, "Songs, Dreams, Circumstance."There's so much more to  Stephen's story. I hope you enjoy getting to know Stephen's mom and all that she instilled in her son, including being aware and caring for others. She's also remembered for using the phrase, "play the ball where it lands," and "make a plan and work a plan." Both of these expressions helped Stephen stay the course when perhaps his Tourette Syndrome got in his way.An absolute pleasure spending time getting to know Stephen and he says he's "a dedicated Neurodiversity advocate." website for Tourette:https://tourette.org/resource/understanding-coprolalia/ DictionaryDefinitions from Oxford Languages · Learn morecop·ro·la·li·a/ˌkäprəˈlālēə/nounPSYCHIATRYthe involuntary and repetitive use of obscene language, as a symptom of mental illness or organic brain disease.  TOURETTE SYNDROME-MAYO CLINIC:https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/tourette-syndrome/symptoms-causes/syc-20350465NOURON UP WEBSITE:https://neuronup.us/cognitive-stimulation-news/neurodevelopmental-disorders/tourette-syndrome/12-ways-to-support-your-friend-with-tourettes/  NIH-NATIONAL INSTITUE OF NEUROLOGICAL DISORDERS & STROKEhttps://www.ninds.nih.gov/health-information/disorders/tourette-syndrome FORM NIH WEBSITE:What is Tourette syndrome?Tourette syndrome (TS) is a neurological disorder that may cause sudden unwanted and uncontrolled rapid and repeated movements or vocal sounds called tics. TS is one of a group of disorders of the developing nervous system called tic disorders.The motor (involving body movement) or vocal (involving sounds you make) tics of TS come and go over time, varying in type, frequency, location, and severity. If you have tics, you cannot stop your body from having them. The first symptoms usually occur between the ages of 5 and 10 years, generally in the head and neck area. These may progress to include the muscles in your torso, arms, and legs. Motor tics generally occur before the development of vocal tics. Tourette syndrome affects more boys than girls. Most people with TS experience their worst tic symptoms in their early teens, but tics typically lessen and become controlled by the late teens to early 20s. For some people, TS can be a chronic condition with symptoms that last into adulthood. In some cases, tics may worsen in adulthood. TS is not a degenerative condition (one that continues to get worse) and individuals with TS have a normal life expectancy.RALPH & BUDDY BOND: YOUTUBE:https://www.google.com/search?q=RALPH+BOND+ORGANIST+PHILIDELOHIA%2C+PA&oq=RALPH+BOND+ORGANIST+PHILIDELOHIA%2C+PA&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUyBggAEEUYOTIJCAEQIRgKGKABMgkIAhAhGAoYoAEyCQgDECEYChigATIJCAQQIRgKGKABMgcIBRAhGI8CMgcIBhAhGI8C0gEJMTU3NzJqMGo3qAIAsAIA&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8#fpstate=ive&vld=cid:564aef9c,vid:lBSt-QxOat8,st:0 LARRY FERRARI-ORGANISThttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OrqSnGuiHVA MONK THOMAS MERTON:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_Merton STEPHEN DiJOSEPH'S WEBSITE: https://www.stephendijoseph.com/INSTAGRAM: www.instagram.com/stephendijosephFACEBOOK:www.facebook.com/dijosephmusicandfilm  "Should Have Listened To My Mother" is an ongoing conversation about mothers and the roles they play in our lives.

Kristof is a veteran, author, and journalist originally from Texas who now resides in Vancouver, dealing with Tourette's syndrome. Despite being the third born in his family, he was the first to graduate from high school. During his time serving in the US Navy as a Corpsman following high school, he taught himself to write. Upon leaving the Navy, he discovered that a traditional university education wasn't suited to him, despite winning top awards for short fiction and poetry in creative writing contests at two different colleges. He transitioned into becoming an EMT at the age of 23, then a 911 dispatcher at 26, before securing a position at a newspaper through audition at the age of 27. During this time, he earned accolades from two Texas Press Associations for his feature writing and photography. However, his Tourette's syndrome began to manifest in a way that he could no longer ignore, leading to five years of battling worsening symptoms and refraining from writing. Finally, on October 16, 2021, he overcame this struggle and resumed writing. In February of the following year, he achieved the milestone of publishing his first book. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/happinessjourney/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/happinessjourney/support

We get a little off-script in this episode as Keilani tries a fun practice called "Inner Active Cards" on James. This is a method Keilani often uses in her sessions which ties into the modality Parts Work.*Disclaimer* James has Tourette Syndrome and during this recording it was a particularly bad day for his symptoms as you might notice.

Like, follow, subscribe and tell a friend!-Steve Owens Fascination Street Podcast Pamela SchullerTake a walk with me down Fascination Street as I get to know Pamela Schuller. In this episode, Pam and I chat about her growing up with one of the worst diagnosed cases of Tourette Syndrome on record, and how that helped her develop an unparalleled resilience. Pam shares fun stories from Jewish summer camp, experiences as a comic, and how she became a diversity & inclusion keynote speaker for businesses, and organizations. Pam tells a couple of stories about being a comic with a serious disorder, and then we jump into her experience on Netflix's Jewish Matchmaking. Did Pam already know the matchmaker beforehand? Maybe. Was Pam kidnapped at Jewish Summer Camp? Definitely. Pam was a lot of fun to talk to, and she was kind enough to not judge my ignorance about Tourette, and answer all of my dumbo questions about it. Look for Pamela everywhere, go see her stand up, hire her as a keynote speaker, and of course check her out on Jewish Matchmaking!
