Title:

Wait, I Have THAT Too?! The Signs of ADHD Nobody Talks About ft. Kelly Brändli

Show Notes:

Three women with ADHD walk into a podcast booth... and somehow actually finish recording an episode. 🎉

This is Episode 1 of our deep-dive ADHD series with Kelly Brändli, ADHD and relationship coach, mom of two ADHD boys, and partner to a late-diagnosed man. Kelly joins your favorite ADHD hosts (yes, both Megan AND Danna have it) to decode what ADHD actually is—and bust the myths you probably still believe.

What You'll Learn:

1. ADD vs. ADHD: There's literally no difference (and why they used to call it "minimal brain dysfunction"... ouch)
2. The three types of ADHD: inattentive, hyperactive, and combination
3. Rejection Sensitivity Dysphoria (RSD): Why that email from your coworker feels like a personal attack
4. The eight areas of executive function—and why "you've met one person with ADHD, you've met ONE person"
5. Why women get diagnosed at specific life stages: university, after having kids, and menopause (hello, estrogen-dopamine connection!)

The Stuff Nobody Tells You: Beyond the classic "can't focus" narrative, Kelly breaks down the overlooked symptoms: emotional dysregulation that looks like anger issues, not noticing you're hungry until you're starving, being "clumsy" all the time, not realizing how loud you're talking, and that mental hyperactivity that means your brain NEVER shuts up (Danna has 10 voices in her head at all times—most of them negative).

Real Talk Moment: "ADHD is not about the things you know, but not doing what you know." — Dr. Russell Barkley (This one hit different.)

Rapid Fire Myth Busting:

1. ❌ Kids with ADHD can't focus → They hyperfocus on things they love (have you seen an ADHD kid game?)
2. ❌ No hyperactivity = no ADHD → Nope, inattentive type exists
3. ❌ ADHD is caused by bad parenting → It's genetic, proven by millions of participants in studies
4. ❌ Stimulant meds lead to addiction → Actually, UNtreated ADHD increases addiction risk

Coming Up in This Series:

1. Episode 2: Understanding Testing & Diagnosis
2. Episode 3: ADHD Medication Deep Dive
3. Episode 4: Hacking Your ADHD Superpowers
