Tourette’s Syndrome is something that we have wanted to create a podcast episode about for a while now, especially following recent media and social media attention. For this episode we talked to content creator Serena Bhandari, who has written for places like The Guardian. In this episode we talk about the route to diagnosis, misconceptions about the condition, other common neurodiverse conditions as well as co-morbidities, and more.
