The Truth about Tourette's with Aidy Smith

Aidy Smith is an award-winning broadcaster, journalist, content creator and speaker and the only TV presenter in the UK with Tourette Syndrome.
Aidy created The Three Drinkers on Amazon Prime; the show has released 3 seasons since 2019 in over 100 territories and 10+ languages around the world.
In this episode I chat to Aidy about Tourette Syndrome, when it showed up in his life and the impact it has had on his mental health over the years.
We chat about the stigma around Tourette’s, what the condition actually is and the day-to-day realities of living with tics and twitches.
And we chat about bullying, finding work, the drinks industry and how Lewis Capaldi at Glastonbury this summer was so important for raising awareness around Tourette’s.
It was an absolute pleasure to chat to Aidy! He has an incredible story and it was amazing to hear all about his mindset and approach to life.
