Today on the podcast I'm joined by Sharon Weinberg to discuss how ADHD affects the leadership role. We chat about how ADHD changes the dynamic between leaders and their team members and how best to approach different kinds of conversations to create strong bonds and positive environments. As a leader with ADHD, it is important to understand and acknowledge how the condition affects your interactions with your team. It is also important for employees with ADHD to be open in conversation to elicit the most pertinent and usable feedback. Altering and realigning messaging helps create a positive environment for all. Sharon also shares in-depth about how evaluating processes and altering them to better match the capabilities of those with ADHD leads to more efficient and effective teams. One of my goals for this year is to re-evaluate my leadership style and the ways that I lead.

274 | May Q&A

Welcome back to the monthly Q&A episode. Brendan Mahan and I take questions from the group about everything from setting boundaries to setting and accomplishing goals. Learn about finding your "Why" Q, and how setting S.M.A.R.T. goals helps you stay on track in the long-term. We then move into ADHD medications, irritability, and the stigma surrounding the disease and its symptoms. Finding the right kind of medication and dosing is paramount to reducing symptoms of the medication. Brendan and I also help walk through post-school and work activities and how making minor tweaks helps with the medication crashes and over-stimulation. Brendan and I also address the stigma surrounding medications. For most people, medications are safe and effective. Seeing your doctor and finding the right medication for you is the most important piece of that. Knowing that you are not alone in the symptoms you are experiencing is also helpful, but realize that the stigma surrounding ADHD is daily being debunked by science.

270 | April Q&A

Welcome to this month's live Q&A episode! I'll start off myself (as my co-host is either mid-interview or heading back to join me). Let's dive in! First, Kimberly asks about ADHD and PTSD, since her doctor suggested that she might only have PTSD and seemed to completely discount the ADHD. She's also curious about gut bacteria helping with executive function. We'll dig into both topics, including the point that trauma is about how we perceive a situation. Marisol then joins the episode. As a microbiologist, she has some insight into gut-brain connection and the role of gut flora. She recommends starting by looking into the NIH Human Microbiome Project and journal articles from the American Society for Microbiology. (Meanwhile, someone in chat recommends Heads Up Health.) After the first break, Brendan is back! We then hear from Marisol about her question, which is about thinking your feelings instead of feeling your feelings. Sometimes, for example, someone can feel anxious about something without having the physical components. Other questions we'll address in today's episode include how long after diagnosis it takes to start getting ADHD under control, whether imposter syndrome is linked to ADHD (and what to do about it), what to do when you're tired of self-care, the role of exercise for people with mobility limitations, and more! Your Resources NIH Human Microbiome Project American Society for Microbiology Brené Brown Fighting Imposter Syndrome | TEDThe Survival Guide for Kids with ADHD | John F. TaylorMy Brain Still Needs Glasses | Annick Vincent You'll Learn: [01:25] Eric welcomes listeners to the monthly Q&A. [01:59] Kimberly shares a question about ADHD and PTSD. [05:07] We hear about how Kimberly was first diagnosed with ADHD, and what led to her diagnosis. [08:01] How does Kimberly see her difficult past experiences impacting her? [10:48] Kimberly talks about her next steps in scheduling appointments with therapists (both where she is now, and where she's moving to soon). [11:53] I share my thoughts on the gut bacteria link to executive function. [13:55] Marisol joins the episode, and starts off by talking about whether she has any insights into the gut-brain connection. [18:40] Brendan is back! He talks about how his radio interview went, then we dig into Marisol's question about thinking your feelings. [23:21] We hear Brendan's thoughts on the topic of thinking your feelings. [25:34] How long after diagnosis does it take for you to start to get your ADHD symptoms under control? [29:20] It's really important to focus on permission when talking about self-care. [32:16] What is Marsol's support system around ADHD? [35:25] The next round of coaching groups starts July 15th! [36:00] Mimi asks whether imposter syndrome is a typical ADHD thing, and how to eradicate it. [40:51] Brendan shares a story involving an event that he mistook the date for. [43:41] What do you do when you're tired of self-care? [45:48] We compare productivity systems and performance. [47:59] Sheila's question involves suggestions about exercise for people with limited mobility. [53:43] Mary wants to know how to catch herself when she starts spending too long on the wrong thing. [57:52] We hear one more question, this time from Robert. He wants to know where to begin as an adult with an ADHD diagnosis.
