Diagnosed with ADHD at the age of 52, comedian and ‘becardiganed polymath’ (Guardian) Robin Ince joins us to explore neurodivergence, anxiety, and the strange myth of “being normal”.
What if being a bit weird is actually entirely normal? What if sharing our internal struggles wasn’t a sign of weakness, but strength?
For over thirty years, award-winning broadcaster and comedian Robin Ince has entertained thousands in person and on air. But underneath the surface, a whirlwind was at play — a struggle with sadness, concentration, self-doubt and near-constant anxiety. After his ADHD diagnosis at the age of fifty-two, it all started to make sense.
A regular face at How To Academy and host of our conversations with some of the biggest names in science, as well as a comedian, broadcaster, author and co-host of the world-renowned podcast The Infinite Monkey Cage, Robin now joins us to explore the fascinating world of neurodivergence and to ask what normal really is – and whether it even exists.
Packed with personal insights, intimate anecdotes and interviews with therapists, neuroscientists and celebrities, this is a quirky and witty dive into the world of neuroscience and human behaviour.
Don’t miss this powerful, personal exploration of anxiety, ADHD and self-acceptance. Robin is here to remind us all – no matter how weird we feel – that it’s okay to be a little different.
Tickets to this event are at a £15 discount for members of How To +, and members can also watch the livestream for free.
