ADHD Essentials RETURNS!!!

What’s Up Team?!

It’s your humble host, Brendan Mahan, back at it again. 

The podcast has been on hiatus for a while, but I am finally in a position to resume posting.  So please tell your friends that I have returned.  

The plan is to continue with the interview format that established ADHD Essentials as one of the top ADHD podcasts in the field, and to add in the occasional episode of me exploring useful topics as appropriate. 

That said, I am expanding the scope to ADHD in general, as well as other neurodiverse topics such as anxiety and autism.  The parenting information will still be there, but I’m no longer covering parenting exclusively.  And odds are that I will be playing with my Wall of Awful model more frequently, because one of the reasons for the extended hiatus was that I a have signed a book deal with Hachette Book Group’s Balance Imprint, and Overcoming The Wall of Awful: Why It’s Hard to Get Things Done When You Have ADHD, Autism, and Anxiety, (and how to do them anyway) will be in a bookstore near you in the Fall of next year.  Turns out writing a book is REALLY time consuming.

That said, ADHD Essentials will resume with some long-overdue episodes, including interviews with ADHD luminaries Ari Tuckman, Archie Chimayani, Larry Jones, and Farah Jamil.  And I’ll also share my thoughts on subjects ranging from afterschool restraint collapse to emotional regulation and connection.

I plan to post several episodes in the next week or so to get the ball rolling, and then settle in to a once-a-week pattern after that.

I’m glad to be back at it, I hope you enjoy what I have in store for you.
