Talking Twaddle with Victoria Hausler: Late Diagnosis, Masking & the Motherload

I’ve loved getting to know Victoria and walking alongside her as she navigates her late-diagnosis journey. It’s been a privilege to support her through the “what does this mean” phase—the traits, the behaviour shifts, the self-understanding, and the enormous emotional load that starts to lighten once you realise… you’re not broken.

She’s at that beautiful beginning—swinging between grief, freedom, and clarity—and you can feel the shift in her energy. She’s ready to take on the world. But she’s going to do it her way. And I am absolutely here for that.
