We all know that when it comes to Relationships/Marriage it is a bumpy ride, now let’s make it even bumpier when one or both partners have ADHD.

My guest Melissa Orlov, a relationship consultant, talks about the impacts of ADHD on Marriage.

She covered some key topics such as:

  • ADHD entrepreneurs working with non-ADHD partner, pressures that it creates, and some possible solutions
  • How both partners can create opportunities that are win-win for both
  • Common themes of ADHD traits that might be misunderstood by a none-ADHD partner
  • The high achiever professional who has figured out success at work but has challenges in marriage and how to manage ADHD between Work Life and Family Life.
  • Towards the end of this talk, Melissa addresses how an ADHD partner perceives criticism and how to manage big emotions

If you have ADHD and you want your partner to get some insights into your brain, this is the episode you want to share!
