#21 - Bea: Transgender, Neurodiversity, Addiction, Recovery, Wheelchair & Living with Tourette's

By Matthew Butler

Matt is joined by Bea, a Transgender woman, former Miss Transgender UK, and activist for Trans, neurodiversity, and disability rights. 

In this candid conversation, Bea opens up publicly for the first time about her struggles with addiction to substances and shares her experiences of living with Tourette&aposs. She discusses the challenges of finding support and acceptance within both the transgender and neurodiversity communities and shares her insights on how to better support those living with Tourette&aposs. 

This episode provides a unique perspective on the intersectionality of identity and the importance of destigmatising addiction.


Believe in People explores addiction, recovery and stigma.
