Leighton Clarke, better known as Uncle Tics is New Zealand’s number 1 TikTok creator with over 4 million followers and THIS is part of his story.
As a young boy he was diagnosed with Tourette, ADHD and OCD and has had to navigate the difficulties of growing up being different.
We discuss the suicidal thoughts he had at nine years old and the breakthrough this led to.
His job at Countdown and the triumphs and tribulations from being an employee with Tourette’s, including meeting his fiancée Olivia.
His time on the TV show Living with Tourette’s.
Becoming an overnight celebrity thanks to his viral success on TikTok and much much more.
I’ve known Leighton in passing for a years but after this conversation I feel I really got to know him. He says he is a cool person and a good man. And I agree. Keen to hear what you guys think as well: Domharveynz@gmail.com
