Making sense of big feelings and busy brains, with Paul Whitehouse & Dr Mine Conkbayir MBE

Making sense of big feelings and busy brains, with Paul Whitehouse & Dr Mine Conkbayir MBE

Are you aware of what can trigger big emotions in you? How to do you act on those difficult emotions? Comedian Paul Whitehouse and his wife Dr Mine Conkbayir MBE – who has a PhD in neuroscience – talk about learning to emotionally regulate.


In this chat with Fearne – live from the Happy Place Festival – Mine explains what led to her late ADHD diagnosis, and the childhood trauma that plays into her own behaviour. Meanwhile Paul’s had physical health scares, and explores how his lifestyle has changed as a result.


They all talk about how the education system needs to change for neurodiverse children, why labels might be useful for some and not for others, and how to calm others with your own behaviour.


Plus, why do this married couple choose not to live together?


Listen to Paul and Mine’s podcast I’m ADHD! No You’re Not! wherever you’re listening to this right now!
