By neurodivergent minds, for neurodivergent lives.
Spicy by Design is a bold, community-driven platform celebrating the lived experiences, creative brilliance, and daily realities of neurodivergent people. We produce conversations, content, and resources that empower individuals to unmask, unlearn, and unapologetically take up space — on their own terms.
We’re not here to “fix” neurodivergent people.
We’re here to fix the systems that overlook them.
Through monthly panel events, educational content, spicy reels, live workshops, and free tools, we spotlight topics like workplace accessibility, self-diagnosis, benefits navigation, and creative self-expression — always with humour, humanity, and heat.
Whether you're autistic, ADHD, chronically ill, multiply neurodivergent, or still exploring where you fit — this is your space. Because being spicy isn’t a flaw. It’s by design.
Our Roots: Powered by Access Bliss
Because we’re not subtle.
Because we interrupt.
Because we stim, and spark, and challenge expectations.
Because neurodivergence doesn’t come with a mute button — and why should it?
Spicy is our strength.
And we are — by design — here to be heard.
Spicy by Design is a service and digital product of Access Bliss, a neurodivergent-led creative agency and content studio.
At Access Bliss, we help inclusive brands, educators, and organisations tell their stories through accessible design, compelling content, and community-focused campaigns. Our work blends storytelling with strategy — always with lived experience at the centre.
Spicy by Design is more than a project.
It’s a working case study of what inclusive content creation looks like in action. From visual storytelling to social media campaigns and webinar production, every element is designed, built, and run by neurodivergent creatives under the Access Bliss umbrella.
Why 'Spicy'?
Our Mission Statement
Radical Visibility
We don’t water ourselves down. We make space for the unfiltered, unmasked reality of neurodivergent life — in all its complexity and colour.
Nothing About Us Without Us
Every piece of content, every conversation, every decision is led by neurodivergent lived experience. Always. No tokenism. No gatekeeping.
Creative Disruption
We use humour, honesty, and bold design to challenge ableist assumptions and break down barriers — inside institutions, industries, and minds.
Access Is Culture
Accessibility isn’t a checkbox — it’s a mindset. We embed access into our events, visuals, communication, and leadership from the start.
Community Over Conformity
We honour neurodivergent ways of thinking, working, and connecting. We don’t ask people to assimilate — we ask systems to evolve.
Progress, Not Perfection
We are always learning. We own our mistakes, welcome feedback, and stay accountable to the communities we serve.
Spicy by Design exists to amplify, celebrate, and centre neurodivergent voices through bold content, unapologetic storytelling, and radically accessible community spaces. We challenge outdated norms, dismantle ableism, and create visibility for the brilliance, struggles, and spice of being neurodivergent — not as a deficit, but by design. Through live panels, creative media, and free educational tools, we empower neurodivergent people to take up space, speak up, and shape the systems they move through — on their own terms.
