Neurodivergent Phoenix Convention:

Science & Soul for ADHD & AuDHD Women

From Surviving to Thriving: Science and Somatics for Navigating ADHD & AuDHD with Clarity 

Have you ever been called “too much,” “too emotional,” or “crazy”—only to later discover you were navigating life with ADHD or autism?

If you’re an ADHD or AuDHD woman, you’ve likely spent a lifetime performing the version of yourself that others can handle.

You’ve masked, minimised, and moulded yourself to fit into a world that wasn’t designed for you.

At some point, you start to wonder: “Is there a more authentic way to live?”

The answer is YES.

Introducing the
Neurodivergent Phoenix Convention

This isn’t just another event—it’s a movement that puts the power back in neurodivergent women's hands.

In a world where she can feel disempowered in relationships and the healthcare system. 

The ONLY event of its kind, designed exclusively for ADHD and AuDHD women to learn about their
biology, nervous system, and post-traumatic healing. 

It’s where science meets soul.

It's where you’ll find a space that feels like a hug, sharing the insights and tools
to go from surviving to thriving.

Science Meets Lived Experience 

 

We’re blending cutting-edge neuroscience with  somatic practices to help you understand your brain and body on a deeper level — so you can reclaim your vitality.

Built for Women, By Women

 

This event centres the unique experiences of neurodivergent women, addressing the strengths and challenges of being ADHD/AuDHD and woman in the world — so you can foster a more authentic relationship with yourself.  

A Community
That Gets It

 

You’ll connect with a room full of women who truly understand your journey —because they’re walking it too. Healing begins when you find a community that honours and reflects your true self.

What You’ll Learn

The ADHD/ AuDHD Dopamine Curve 

 


What too much or not enough dopamine does to ADHD and AuDHD brains.


 
Why this matters:  

You’ll understand how daily habits impact your brain health, your reaction to medication, your relationships, and what you can do to feel more balanced.

 

Hormones &
Co-occurring Conditions

 
How hormonal shifts & co-occurring conditions impact your experience & why “crazy” isn’t crazy when you know what’s going on.


Why this matters: 

You’ll gain practical tools to work with your cycle and hormones, so you can advocate for yourself and show up fully in your life.

Gender-bias in Care & Workplace Neuroinclusion


How therapy, psychiatry, and workplace inclusion models often misunderstand, mislabel, or exclude neurodivergent women—and what you can do about it.

 

Why this matters: 

You’ll leave with scripts to advocate for yourself in systems that weren’t built with you in mind.

Is This You?

 

This event is for you if:

  • You’re burned out from holding everyone's needs but your own.

  • You want to understand your brain and body and learn tools to heal and thrive.

  • On the outside, you seem successful, but inside, you're tired of performing and ready to feel seen, validated, and like you finally belong.

  • You know your sensitivity is a gift, and you want to own it fully. 
  • You work in the helper professions and want to learn to improve your practice. 

What You'll Walk Away Feeling 

 

  • Less Alone: Like someone finally gets it.

  • Validated & Seen: Like someone is explaining your life in a way that lands in your body, not just your head.

  • Empowered: Like you’ve rediscovered the vital life force you buried a long time ago.

  • Permission to rest, speak, and belong without shrinking or proving.

  • If you're an ally, you'll understand how to support neurodivergent women. 

Meet Your Host: Dr. Samantha Hiew

Named a Difference Maker by PBS America and Positive Role Model for Gender by the National Diversity Awards, Dr. Samantha Hiew is a keynote speaker, lived experience researcher, and founder of ADHD Girls—a social impact platform transforming how society sees and supports neurodivergent women and underrepresented communities. 

Diagnosed with ADHD and autism in her 40s after years of feeling unseen, Sam created the space she longed for—where science meets lived experience, and personal truth becomes a catalyst for cultural change. 

Sam has spoken to 100,000+ people, trained 100+ FTSE companies, and led the UK’s first large-scale event spotlighting the lives of AuDHD women and the diagnostic gaps they face — training the world's first AuDHD Intersectional and Scientific Practitioners. 

Sam brings heart and academic rigour to every stage and page. Sam’s debut book, Tip of the ADHD Iceberg, is a compassionate guide for late-diagnosed neurodivergents to navigate life after diagnosis and find their voice. 

With a PhD in medical sciences and a background in communications, Sam translates research into real-world relevance—helping neurodivergent people feel seen, supported, and empowered.
