“Curiouser and Curiouser!”

Why Alice’s Wonderland Exists

For too long, neurodivergence has been misunderstood, othered, and forced into rigid categories that don’t fit. Many of us have spent our lives masking, adapting, and trying to conform to a world that was not designed for us.

Alice’s Wonderland was created as a radical rejection of that idea. It is a place where we can explore, reimagine, and redefine who we are and what it means to be, to belong, to lead, and to create change.

✩ A space for unmasking, self-expression, and belonging.

✩ A challenge to outdated medicalised, deficit-based narratives that pathologise difference.

✩ A community where neurodivergent people lead, disrupt, and build spaces on our own terms.

✩ A movement that blends thought leadership, activism, storytelling and creativity.

What You’ll Find in Alice’s Wonderland

Personal Reflections on Neurodivergence & Identity

Alice’s Wonderland is built on lived experience. It is a space where we explore:

✦ The journey of discovering, understanding, and embracing neurodivergence.

✦ The complexities of masking, unmasking, and self-acceptance.

✦ The experiences that shape us as individuals and as a community.

Celebrating Neurodivergent Culture

This is a space that centres neurodivergence as an identity, not a deficit. Here, we highlight:

✦ The creativity, strength, and authenticity of divergent minds.

✦ The power of curiosity, unconventional thinking, and breaking the mould.

✦ The ways in which neurodivergent people challenge, innovate, and reshape industries, communities, and culture.

✦ The ways neurodivergent people remake culture, challenge institutions, and speak truth to power and reframe what counts as knowledge.

Disrupting the Narrative & Reclaiming Community Through Story

Alice’s Wonderland exists to de-centre outdated norms and create new ways of thinking and being.

✦ Queering expectations, questioning "normality," and resisting compliance culture.

✦ Shifting perspectives on leadership, work, and social change.

✦ Challenging the systemic barriers that exclude neurodivergent people from decision-making spaces.

✦ Reclaiming storytelling as a way to build neurokinship, visibility, epistemic justice and collective power.

✦ Embedding a double empathy approach as the foundation of connection and communication

Community, Connection & Collaboration

This space is built for and by neurodivergent people. It is a place where:

✦ We uplift and support each other through community connection and shared experiences – including our stories.

✦ We challenge the isolation that often comes with neurodivergence.

✦ We create opportunities for kinship, collaboration, leadership, and systemic change.

Playfulness, Humour, and Self-Expression

Creativity, humour, misfitting and playful mischief are powerful forms of resistance.

✦ Laughing at the absurdity of societal expectations.

✦ Using satire, surrealism, and sensory storytelling to shift perspectives.

✦ Encouraging self-expression in all its forms—whether through art, writing, advocacy, or simply existing as we are.

✦ Welcoming stimming, scripting, and poetic nonlinear expression as forms of brilliance.

Misfitting: Embracing the Absurd as Resistance

To misfit is to reveal the absurdity of systems that label difference as disorder. At Alice’s Wonderland, misfitting is reclamation—a joyful refusal of neuronormative demands, and a celebration of weirdness, eccentricity, nonsense and madness as belonging.

✦ Reclaiming “misfit” as a badge of pride, not pathology.

✦ Embracing absurdity, nonsense, and “madness” as cultural belonging.

✦ Exposing how the world fails to fit us, rather than the other way around.

✦ Treating disruption, weirdness, and divergence as creative power.

Who Is This For?

✩ Neurodivergent thinkers, leaders, and disruptors who want to shape their own path.

✩ People who have felt like outsiders and are looking for a space to belong.

✩ Anyone who wants to challenge the systems that uphold exclusion, ableism, and conformity.

✩ Those who see the world differently, want to celebrate that difference and know that difference is not the problem, the system is - and always was.

Step Into Wonderland

Alice’s Wonderland is a place where we amplify neurodivergent voices, challenge systems, and build new realities. It is a place for radical imagination, community, and unapologetic authenticity.

✶ If you’re ready to challenge norms, rethink identity, and celebrate difference, you’re in the right place.

❋ Step beyond the looking glass and into a space where curiosity becomes rebellion, and imagination becomes justice, neurokinship and possibility.
