Join Anna Kennedy as she chats with 18-year-old Asha Jenner, a remarkable young woman from Yorkshire who’s on the autism spectrum with PDA (pathological demand avoidance). Despite facing severe mental health challenges including an eating disorder and traumatic mainstream school experiences, Asha has found her passion and purpose through dance, starting at just three years old. This inspiring conversation reveals how Asha transformed from having virtually no friends and feeling like she was ‘going mad’ to becoming an assistant dance teacher with dreams of opening a fully inclusive dance school. Anna also shares exciting updates about the Anna Kennedy Online charity, including the upcoming Autumn’s Got Talent performance at the Globe Theatre in Stockton, featuring talented autistic performers, and the expansion of Autism’s Got Talent to America with overseas ambassador Dani Bowman.
