10. S1, Ep10. Mabz Beet on autism, modelling and fashion photography, being a carer and having an audio play written especially for them
Manage episode 312949968 series 3008778
Mabz Beet brings our first series to an end with an inspiring and fascinating episode. They talk about struggles at school, being different and feeling anxious about their visible autistic traits in the playground and not getting clarity in the classroom.
As a transgender model with a large following on Instagram, Mabz shares their love for fashion shoots, wonderful outfits and body painting.
Another love for Mabz is acting, and we talk about the fabulous audio play How to Drop a Piano, written especially for this aspiring actor by Samantha Grierson. The play stars Jane Asher, President of The National Autistic Society, and it is through this charity that Mabz works as a carer for young autistic adults.
Mabz is a great Advocate for the autistic community and is involved in training programmes and the Oliver McGowan charity, which raises awareness for disability training after a young autistic man was wrongly prescribed psychotic medication, leading to his death.
