Drug Free ADHD

#17 — Hunter in a Farmers World | Thom Hartmann


Listen Later

My interview with Thom Hartmann, author of Hunter in a Farmers World.


What an honour.


Hunters in a Farmers World is my favourite book on ADHD. The only book on ADHD I’ve read multiple times. This book completely changed my perspective on ADHD. From that of a disorder, an illness, a problem. Into a benefit.


It’s hard to put into words how much Thom’s view of ADHD has influenced how I do business, how I live my life, and how I help people manage ADHD with skills (not pills).


In the interview we talk about:



  • How Thom developed the idea of Hunters in a Farmers world

  • Experimental school (where kids go at their own pace) and how the traditional schooling system is built for farmers not hunters.

  • How he was attacked by Russell Barkley for trying to make people with ADHD feel good

  • How to avoid becoming a victim of the ADHD industry

  • Why ADHD meds are wildly over-prescribed

  • And much much more
