E49: Bridging ADHD Treatment and Neurodiversity: Insights from Coach Liz Lewis

Today I have the privilege of speaking with ADHD coach, Liz Lewis, and we break down some of our observations and the nuances behind how the ADHD coaching industry has evolved over the last few years. We also talk about a ‘whole person’ look at the diagnosis as an adult, and how to think about personalizing your care. 

We cover:

• Why ADHD is about a lot more than executive dysfunction,
• How can the medical model and the neurodiversity paradigm be reconciled in understanding and treating ADHD?
• What are the specific challenges and expectations faced by women with ADHD?
• How can the ADHD community navigate the challenges of social media and online influencers?

Resources mentioned in the show: 

• Check out The 2023 Annual International Conference on ADHD
• The OG: The ADHD Resource Hub,
• Access: Our list of mental health resources and connections, and some free downloads, or low cost counselling in Ontario,
