Distracted

We're baaaackkkkk! After a much needed break, we're back in action with a topic inspired by Kat's recent travels. While trips and holidays are obviously wonderful, they can be testing on the ol' ADHD brain in many ways. From decision paralysis, missed flights, the mega fidgets and boredom on the plane, to overstimulation and setting unrealistic expectations. Join us for a chat about the benefits, the struggles and our very different approaches to holidaying in general.We'd love to hear from you on your experiences and whether anything from this episode resonated with you - our DMs are always open so please do get in touch!Thanks for listening xShout out to all our Patreons, thanks so much for the support!
