What happens when ADHD meets perimenopause — and no one’s talking about it? In this honest, empowering episode of Sage Women, host Melanie White is joined by executive coaches Simone Outteridge, Lisa Allen, and Tara Blanchy to unpack the unique experience of women navigating ADHD in midlife — often without a diagnosis, a roadmap, or the language to explain what’s going on.

Drawing on their coaching practice and personal stories, these women explore:

✅ The symptom overlap between ADHD and menopause

✅ Why so many midlife women are misdiagnosed — or missed entirely

✅ How masking and perfectionism drain energy and self-worth

✅ Practical, brain-based strategies for executive function and focus

✅ Tools for embracing change, owning your story, and building a new narrative

From digital tools and mindset shifts to the power of self-compassion, this episode is a must-listen for women navigating neurodiversity, hormonal transitions, and the complex demands of midlife.

Midlife isn’t the end - it’s a chance to rewire, reframe and rise.
