Attention Different | Adulting with ADHD Creatively ADHD w/Hannah Skewes (@hkskewes) | Firesides Ep. 03
đź’ˇCuriosity without judgment. This is the way.
What would shift in your life if you started observing yourself with compassion instead of criticism?
In this Fireside Chat, we sit down with Hannah Skewes—writer, photographer, and creative storyteller—who shares her journey of living with ADHD, receiving a late diagnosis, and the challenges of navigating self-doubt and shame. From finding mindfulness in self-observation to reframing perfectionism, Hannah opens up about how compassion, curiosity, and creativity fuel her growth.
🌲 Filmed in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado, this conversation dives into what it means to hold on tightly to self-love while letting go lightly of shame, and how ADHD adults can find balance in both their inner voices and their relationships.
