Chloe Hayden - (Heartbreak High Actor and Autistic) | #76

"Ironically by pretending to be someone else I was able to feel more like myself"

Chloe Hayden is what happens when talent meets accessibility.
The star of the #1 Netflix programme in the world, "Heartbreak High," portraying Quinni, a neurodiverse character, shone both in her representation and support of performers with disabilities portraying those with disabilities.
She explains being her own worst enemy, growing up an outcast of a society not willing to accept a young person who didn't fit it's tiny box and being mobbed in the streets.

In this episode we talk:
- Growing up in a small community without disability representation

- Being 'Selectively Mute'
- Acting and Heartbreak High (obvs)
- Accessibility on TV & Movie sets
