E8: Managing Intense Emotions: The Role of Mindful Communication with Therapist Christina Crowe

Today I’m coming to you solo, talking about the intense emotional experiences of the ADHD brain, and how to make communication more mindful.

In this episode, I talk about:

• What parts of our brain are implicated in both emotional regulation and ADHD?
• Where are the places in our lives we see the impact of ADHD-associated emotional dysregulation?
• Why are difficult conversations harder for people with ADHD?
• How can a “we-first” versus “me-first” perspective build your communication skills?
