In the Season's final The Flow episode, we are joined by Jaya Misra, a Board Certified Behavioural Analyst, supporting children who have been diagnosed with autism.
We take a different approach for this episode, as Mamta delves into a discovery conversation on how ABA - Applied Behaviour Analysis Therapy. Over the past couple of seasons, we have discovered multiple therapies, from CBT to EDMR, and today we learn something relatively new in the UK.
With a passion for psychology, Jaya's route to supporting others was a "clear" path, which led her to America to get certified and discovering ABA. As she supports children in the UK, she continues to advocate for ABA as a route to a meaningful, independent and happy lives.

“My neurodivergence has absolutely nothing to do with my intelligence”
In this week's Flow episode, I’m joined by Onyinye Udokporo, a mind-blowing impactful woman who hasn’t even hit her 30’s yet. We delve into her personal highlights and lowlights throughout the years, starting with her diagnosis of dyslexia at 11.
We see the impact of family and institutional support of an early/childhood diagnosis. The idea that you can do it all, was instilled from childhood which meant her diagnosis didn't hold her back but just had to find new paths in life. She goes on to give back to her community through tutoring, supporting fellow young people and now navigating the working world to help THEM understand neurodiversity.

Hellooo…Welcome back to the Power Within You!
As you may know, we spent last season connecting and learning from amazing people who are not only managing their mental health but finding the strength and power within them. As I continue my own MsC at Kings and my own understanding of mental health, there is something we’re still not getting right it seems…Neurodiversity.
In Season 3, we’re bringing in a new format to share the latest facts, figures and research from the Neurodiversity and mental health space - The Focus. Living in a content world is exciting and exhausting at the same time, not knowing what is “fact”, a credible source or something you should even say “I saw this on tiktok”. And don't panic, you'll still get our conversations in The Flow.We’re here to bust the myths, share the stories and understand the lived experience of neurodiversity - the human edition.

**Trigger Warning: This episode discusses abuse**In this episode, I’m joined by Jeff Spiteri, as we delve into the impact of abuse & trauma. Trauma has a lifelong impact, and as we hear Jeff’s story, we can see how you have the power to take control on the type of impact it has on you.
You may not have the right tools or support system, but one thing we all have is the power of awareness. Just knowing that this is not right, or this is not the life you want, can jumpstart a new timeline for you, just as Jeff did.
We discuss the impact of trauma, relearning emotional regulation, and accepting what the healing journey looks like (and that it never ends).

If not now, then when?
We’ve heard that before in different ways, but Sumeena really took this leap of faith into the unknown - before it became popular.
In this episode, I’m joined by Sumeena Gupta, owner of multiple hospitality businesses in Bali and coach to multiple female founders. There are times when you can plan, and calculate your moves, but eventually it gets to the moment where you have to "just figure it out”. The moment where you surrender to your true self, your authentic self, the one that is “too much”.
You’ll hear how Sumeena took “you’ll figure it out”, literally, but also how you can implement steps to charge your spark, leave space for curiosity and minimise the amount of resistance you have in life.
