Christina Poulton works with non‑profit organisations—charities, CICs and community groups—to make their work easier to manage and fund. She has been in the sector her whole career, starting when Linkin Park were first topping the charts.

She has been a venue manager, production coordinator, youth leader, university lecturer, and has worked in programming, marketing and fundraising.

Christina describes herself as a weird mix of a list‑loving wannabe accountant and a creative, idea‑a‑minute people‑person.

Ethical fundraising means focusing on clarity, viability, and genuine fit—not taking work you can't help with.

Amelia helps neurodivergent business owners design businesses that work with their brains instead of against them—so action becomes inevitable rather than exhausting. Most advice tells you to get more disciplined. She helps you design your business so doing the right thing stops feeling like pushing a boulder uphill. Because when your environment matches how you actually think, you don’t fight yourself anymore. You just do the do.

Start where want is loudest; progress emerges from visible next steps, not strict linear plans.

Season 2 Episode 1

It's me Jenn Wilson, introducing Season 2 of the Irregular Humans podcast, where we celebrate diversity and challenge convention. This short episode explains why, via the history of the concept of "normal",

Until the 19th century normal only referred to statistical averages in maths or science - but over time it's been redefined to pathologise and judge natural human variations. As a queer, female human with ADHD, I have direct experience of the ways societal norms around work, social behaviour, family structures, and gender roles have created expectations that don't fit everyone.

My guests are change-makers, who challenge the ways that the status quo and these 'normal' standards cause harm. Each of them has questioned and explored their own unique approach - some by refusing to let their identity be seen as deviant or less-than-normal... and some via creating and innovating new methods for life and work that are more accessible, inclusive and effective for all of us, rather than the privileged few.

The Irregular Humans podcast is an invitation to listen, to question conventional norms and embrace your own irregular ways to make a kinder, fairer, safer world for all of us.
