Creative Navigating with Jodie Herbert

Creativity through the lens of a Para Neurodiversity Consultant

"Creativity is: To look at all the information you have and find a new and exciting way through."

Jodie Herbert is a disability advocate, workplace inclusion strategist, and founder of Ability Pathways Australia, helping organizations, careers, and people with disability bridge the gap between policy, intention, and real-life implementation. After more than two decades in market analytics, Jodie combines her professional expertise with a lifetime of lived experience as a career, including supporting family members with complex disabilities, to develop practical solutions that help people thrive at work and in everyday life. Known for combining compassion with rigorous analysis, Jodie does not rely on opinions alone. She has produced detailed, evidence-based reports that have contributed to national disability funding discussions, including a 113-page submission to the Australian Senate examining the economic and human impact of proposed National Disability Insurance Scheme reforms. Her work focuses on turning complex challenges into practical systems that organizations, leaders, managers, and support networks can realistically implement and sustain.
