Episode 133 with Pippa Simou.“I think I’ve been tired my entire life. It’s absolutely exhausting having this brain.”Pippa is a former teacher, now ADHD advocate, trainer, and coach, and the founder of The ADD-vantage, a support service hub for girls and women with ADHD. When Pippa’s son was diagnosed with ADHD, it never occurred to her that she also might have ADHD because his presentation was so different from hers. And while she was aware that she struggled with inattentiveness and could be quite impulsive, she had no idea that was part of ADHD, too. It wasn’t until she tried out a QbCheck screening that she discovered — surprise — she also had ADHD. She was diagnosed in 2017, and her teenage daughter was also diagnosed shortly thereafter.We talk about some of the reasons why ADHD is so commonly overlooked in girls and women, and the work she’s doing to help inspire girls and women to live well and recognize and lean into their strengths. We also talk about what teachers can do to help girls, and why so many teachers tend to have ADHD, whether they know it or not. Website: www.theadd-vantage.co.ukInstagram: @theaddvantage_Links: QbCheck ScreeningBooks & Articles mentioned:Worth It: A Journey to Food and Body Freedom by Katy Weber- - - - -Episode Sponsor:This episode is brought to you by Llama Life, the beautifully-designed, simple, and flexible app that uses time-boxing to help keep you focused as you work through your To Do list.

Episode 130 with Anita Robertson.“What’s hard for us is easy for everybody else. And what’s hard for everyone else is really easy for us.”Anita is a psychotherapist in Austin, Texas, and the author of ADHD & Us: A Couple’s Guide to Loving and Living with Adult ADHD. Anita works with adults and couples, and she created the ADHD Relationship Bootcamp to help neurodiverse couples develop new skills to communicate effectively and improve their relationships. She also works with ADHD adults to make their environments ADHD-friendly: from executive functioning supports to sensory needs.I reached out to Anita because while there seems to be plenty of advice out there on living with an ADHD partner, I haven’t seen a lot of books that address what it’s like to be the ADHD partner, especially as a woman. Many of us who are diagnosed in adulthood have difficulty explaining our ADHD traits and experiences, especially to our non-ADHD partners. Anita & I talk all about some of the more common stressors in relationships — like clutter or parenthood — and she describes the 5 ADHD relationship pillars and how we can embrace a growth mindset to improve communication and advocate for our needs.Books & Articles mentioned:ADHD & Us: A Couple's Guide to Loving and Living With Adult ADHD by Anita RobertsonBlog: When clutter makes your relationship messyWebsite: anitarobertson.comInstagram: @strengthinyourmind- - - - -Episode Sponsor:This episode is brought to you by Llama Life, the beautifully-designed, simple, and flexible app that uses time-boxing to help keep you focused as you work through your To Do list.

Episode 127 with Meghann Birks.“I remember always being surprised when people would say, ‛Stop interrupting!’ because I didn’t even know I was doing it.”Meghann is a Certified Professional Coach, embodiment educator and Steel Mace flow teacher based in Australia. She was diagnosed with ADHD at 38 (to nobody's great surprise) and now supports women in midlife who are seeking to show up as all of who they are — the joyful, the messy and everything in between. She describes her work as "where the science meets the soul" and uses a combination of modalities to help her clients discern what they really want in life, and how to get it, using their neurodivergence as an asset in the work.As a trauma-informed somatic practitioner, she is incredibly passionate about helping women address the feelings of shame and sadness that can come up when diagnosed with ADHD as adults. As liberating as it is to have the "Aha! THAT'S why I do/think/feel this way..." moment, the grief that arises when we look back on the decades that were shaped by fear, anger and misunderstanding can be overwhelming. Meghann & I talk all about managing shame and grief after a diagnosis, as well as embodiment practices and learning ways to sit with and move through our heavy emotions. Books mentioned:ADHD 2.0 by Edward Hallowell & John RateyThe Comfort Crisis by Michael EasterSlightly Damaged; Totally Divine: A Book of Poems by Meghann BirksWebsite: meghannbirks.comInstagram: @meghannbirkscoachingEpisode edited by E Podcast ProductionsFind the transcript of this episode at www.womenandadhd.com/transcriptsThis episode is sponsored by BetterHelp.
