Living with ADHD means it doesn’t disappear once you find success–you can be kind, loving, respectful and still show up with your ADHD when you connect with yourself and take accountability. Today, I’m bringing you a conversation from the I Have ADHD podcast, where I was interviewed by Kristen Carder. We talk about my journey of being diagnosed with ADHD in midlife, the relationship between neurodivergence and people-pleasing, and how I became an ex-good girl. Here’s what we cover:
- How “ADHD brain” can impact your life even when you have good intentions
- How my ADHD diagnosis later in life brought both clarity and grief
- My approach to seeking help managing perimenopause
- Why self-abandonment is at the heart of people-pleasing
- What it truly means to be an ex-good girl and how to reclaim your voice
