Self-Awareness and Health Management

Are you ready to reimagine the way you think about ADHD, mental health, and the neurodivergent brain? Today, we’re diving deep into the science, personal experiences, and practical strategies to thrive in a world designed for the neurotypical. I’m joined by Ludovico, a brilliant PhD researcher and advocate who discovered his ADHD while in grad school. Together, we unpack the complex layers of neurodivergence, hormonal interplay, and how our environment shapes our mental health. If you’ve ever felt misunderstood, overwhelmed, or simply curious about what makes your brain tick, this episode is for you.
