Hey Lifers!
Over the past 4 months we have been working on this very special project; a brand new 10 part mini series called Cloud, hosted by Life Uncut’s Executive Producer Keeshia Pettit.
Cloud is a podcast series created to discuss ADHD and late age diagnosis; a conversation that was sparked after Keeshia’s own diagnosis. The name Cloud is inspired by the experiences of many late-diagnosed women who describe finally feeling like a “cloud was lifted” after learning more about the different ways that their brains work and how they ‘fit’ into society.
With all of the content about ADHD on social media explaining what the condition is, I’ve been on quite a journey figuring out the difference between what I thought were personality flaws and what is actually symptomatic of this condition. I realised that there was a bit of a gap of what to do next. What was I meant to do with all of this information? Cloud was created to fill that gap. It explores the intersection of ADHD with identity, relationships, career, and well-being so that we can live more fulfilling and more present lives.
Each episode will offer insight into a different aspect of ADHD from guests like Mark Manson, the author of ‘The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck, psychiatrist Dr Kieran Kennedy, focus and attention expert Johann Hari and relationship experts Sabrina Zohar and Logan Ury.
Today’s conversation is about emotional dysregulation, shame, masking, impulsivity, self criticism and success.
- We chat:
- Why I was so hesitant to speak publicly about ADHD
- The ‘oversaturation’ of ADHD content on social media
- How ADHD presents differently in girls and women
- Wondering if I'd have known earlier, would life have been easier?
- How I've changed since diagnosis
- How Britt & Laura feel I've changed
- Rejection sensitive dysphoria, emotional dysregulation, shame, impulsivity and time blindness.
- Am I a chameleon or am I masking?
