As explored in our previous blog Surviving Christmas Parties, the festive season brings with it lots of challenges for neurodivergent individuals. Christmas parties are the norm in business, but how can you make sure that everyone’s needs are accommodated?

As the days shorten and the cold sets in, many of us feel our energy dip, but for neurodivergent people, winter can be especially tough.
Reduced sunlight messes with mood, sleep, and focus, and the season’s sensory overload can make even simple tasks feel monumental.

Sally Houben has spent three decades turning big ideas into solid foundations. From healthcare to international sport and even running her own cheese business in Germany, her career has been anything but ordinary. Now, as an OBM at Sycamore and an autistic individual, she helps neurodivergent entrepreneurs create systems that truly work for them.
