The ADHD MUMS podcast is a safe place where real people with real stories can discuss their struggles with ADHD, motherhood, and life. In this episode, host Jane McFadden talks about the growing awareness of ADHD in women, particularly mothers, and the challenges they face in their daily lives. Jane shares her story of being diagnosed with ADHD in her mid-thirties after experiencing severe burnout and feeling overwhelmed. Research has shown that ADHD symptoms can present differently in women than in men, and many women with ADHD may have gone undiagnosed or misdiagnosed in the past. The demands of motherhood can exacerbate the symptoms of ADHD, and as awareness grows, more women are seeking diagnosis and treatment.

1: Why are so many Mums being diagnosed with ADHD?

Being a mum is hard enough. Being a mum with ADHD — or raising neurodivergent kids is a whole different level.

ADHD Mums is the unfiltered, science-meets-reality podcast hosted by Jane McFadden, educational neuroscientist, advocate, and mother of three. This isn’t another polished parenting show with 'ten easy tips.' It’s real stories, confessions we’re not supposed to say out loud, and the research that explains why so many of us are running on empty.

Every week you’ll hear:

🎙️ Confessions — raw, anonymous truths from mums navigating rage, burnout, and survival.

🧠 Expert insights — from neuroscientists, clinicians, and policy leaders on ADHD, autism, and mental health.

💬 Advocacy in action — exposing ADHD medication shortages, NDIS red tape, and the hidden costs mothers carry.

With over 1 million downloads already tuning in from across the world, the podcast has already influenced ADHD reforms in Australia, been featured in national media, and pushed politicians to answer the questions mothers are asking.

If you’ve ever screamed in the car, forgotten every form until the night before, or wondered if you’re the only one falling apart — this podcast is your proof that you’re not broken, you’re just telling the truth.
