Today is a discussion between the two Lous!! Lou Kuchel speaks to Lou Brown about ADHD. When Lou B was a child, she was misunderstood. That led to shame and a poor self image. After discovering her son was ADHD, she realised she's also neurodivergent and that led to a re-birth of sorts. Lou realised that everything she had experienced in her earlier years, now has an explanation. The world opened up and Lou became an ADHD coach and is now a PhD candidate! More doors have opened and Lou is a consumer advisor at Deakin University, on the board at AADPA and her parenting approach is set for validation that will bring hope and improve outcomes for many neurodivergent families in the future.
