ADHD: Finding Talents and Your Role in Life

For those who survived our previous show, "Talents: Enough Talk, Let's Identify Them" (a bit of a prerequisite for this show), host Jeff Copper and co-host Kirsten Milliken interview Wilma Fellman, ADHD career counselor.  They begin by removing all the things that may get in your way to finding the right job and career.  For example, Wilma powerfully illustrates why you look at career first and then the disability, but also the reason job characteristics, tasks, and environment should be the focus over career categories.  If you are tired of being miscast in your job and long to be cast in the role you were born to play, then you need to listen to this show and study it in depth. Attention Talk Radio is the leading site for self-help Internet radio shows focusing on attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and attention deficit disorder (ADD), including managing symptoms of attention deficit disorder, adults with ADD, or adults who have children with ADHD.
