Chloé Hayden | Different, Not Less (FULL EVENT) | FANE

🌈 It's time to celebrate, not stigmatise, the beauty of difference. Join award winning actor, disability advocate and star of Netflix’s Heartbreak High, Chloe Hayden to celebrate the publication of her new book Different, Not Less.
Growing up, Chloé Hayden felt like she'd crash-landed on an alien planet where nothing made sense. Eye contact? Small talk? And why are you people so touch-oriented? None of it made sense.
Chloé desperately wished to be part of the fairytales she so dearly loved. A world in which the lead is considered a hero because of their differences, rather than excluded and pushed aside for them.
She moved between 10 schools in 8 years, struggling to become a person she believed society would accept. After years of being ‘weird, quirky, Chloé’ she was eventually diagnosed with autism and ADHD. It was only after a life-changing group of allies showed her that different did not mean less that she learned to celebrate her true voice and find her happily ever after.
Different, Not Less is an empowering guide to celebrating and supporting neurodivergence, it is both moving and funny and inspires us all to create a more inclusive world where everyone feels like they belong. In conversation with Sandro Farmhouse (GBBO) for this Fane Online event, Chloe will provide insight on how Autism and ADHD present differently in women and girls, alongside giving tips for finding supportive relationships, communities and workplaces.
A Night In with Chloé Hayden was originally broadcast on Fri 17 Feb 2023.
