Jacinta Dietrich is a self-confessed slashie – she is a neurodivergent and bisexual writer / editor / podcaster based in Naarm, Melbourne. She balances her regular job with as many “side quests” as possible. Why? Because, why just choose one creative outlet?

Jacinta joins me on Creativity: Uncovered to discuss her creativity, how being neurodivergent gives her creative super powers, and how she balances it all (and stays motivated!).

Tune in to be inspired by how one person can squeeze so much into each day!

Happy listening!
