“You Are A Lot” (an ADHD/AuDHD podcast) Episode 46: ADHD & AuDHD Workplace Accommodations: Your Rights & How To Ask
In this episode: Jen talks about how ADHD shows up at work — from time blindness to burnout — and breaks down what your rights are under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). She walks you through real-world accommodations that can make a huge difference (including remote work), how to actually ask for them without overexplaining, and also rethinks the whole concept of why we even have to ask for things like this on our own in the first place.
