Parul Singh is the founder of Parallel Minds Neurodiversity Consultancy, where she partners with organisations to create neuroinclusive work environments that enable Neurodivergent people to thrive. Before launching Parallel Minds, Parul worked in tech, specialising in talent acquisition, employer branding and ERG leadership.
Her diagnoses, which came part-way through her career, completely changed the trajectory of her career. Parul draws on her experiences as an Autistic ADHDer and a woman of colour to advocate for Neuroinclusion through an intersectional lens.
Originally from Liverpool, Parul has called Manchester home for the last ten years. When she's not working, she chases dopamine through many unfinished hobbies (embroidery being the latest one), in the gym, eating or playing the piano.
Have you ever felt like a fraud despite your achievements? You're not alone—but it might not be what you think. This eye-opening conversation completely transforms our understanding of what we've long called "imposter syndrome."
Parul reveals the fascinating history behind this misunderstood concept, explaining how it was originally termed "imposter phenomenon". We dive deep into what actually creates these feelings of inadequacy. It's not an inherent lack of confidence but rather the accumulated impact of microaggressions, barriers, and societal conditioning.
Whether you've struggled with feelings of not belonging or want to create more inclusive spaces, this episode offers both validation and a roadmap for moving forward.
