Details of talks given by Natalie Wilson
I’m Natalie Wilson, a coach, HR leader and advocate for truly inclusive workplaces. I specialise in neurodiversity and the lived reality of ADHD in adulthood, and I’m passionate about helping people understand both the science and the very human side of it.
My background is in senior HR roles across complex organisations, where I saw first-hand how systems, culture and leadership can either support people brilliantly — or unintentionally make life much harder. Now, I use that experience to help leaders, teams and communities move from awareness to practical, compassionate action.
I was diagnosed later in life, and I talk openly about that journey: the masking, the exhaustion, the moments of shame, and the sense of finally having language for something that had always been there. With so many adults now being diagnosed, I believe our stories matter — because they explain why the rise in diagnosis isn’t about “labels”, it’s about finally being understood.
In my talks, I focus on what real support actually looks like. Things like designing roles that work with the brain, not against it. Creating psychological safety. Building habits that support regulation and productivity without guilt. And developing organisations where neurodivergent people don’t have to hide parts of themselves to succeed.
