All About ADHD [feat. Becca King]

I’m a big fidgeter.  You’d never know it, but I have one of those pop-it balls that I put to good use on calls.  That pop-pop-pop…you guys, it’s just a great way to channel some energy, ya know? Hey, I struggle with normal human things too!   And here’s the deal, there are a lot of normal humans out there that are in the same boat.  Maybe they tap their feet under their desk to keep their focus on what they should be focusing on.  Maybe they get hyper-focused on tasks and forget to eat all day, or maybe they get really bored and just start snacking and snacking.   Sound familiar?     You guys, I’m really excited about today’s topic because like my pop-it ball this topic is one that has been “popping up” so much lately, it’s ADHD.  In this episode, I have my ADHD guru—my go-to gal—Becca King.     So who is this Becca gal?   Becca King is a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist from Charlotte, North Carolina. As an adult with ADHD who struggled for years with disordered eating, Becca is passionate about helping other adults with ADHD who struggle with binge eating, chronic dieting, and body image issues find food freedom and improve their self-esteem. She uses the Principles of Intuitive Eating and a weight-inclusive approach to nutrition for ADHD in her virtual practice.   I think this episode is going to be really valuable whether you struggle with ADHD personally or not.  We’ll cover what ADHD is in grown-up terms, why women often get misdiagnosed (or diagnosed late), what to do to get it under control, the relationship between ADHD and food, and more!     You’ll love her, I know it.  So no more need to linger, let’s pop on over to the interview with Becca!   Join The SociEATy & Learn How To Eat Intuitively: https://members.colleenchristensennutrition.com/join/   Follow Colleen On: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/no.food.rules/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/ColleenChristensen/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@no.food.rules?lang=en   Adapting Intuitive Eating for Neurodivergent People: https://www.rdsforneurodiversity.com/blog/adapting-intuitive-eating-for-neurodivergent-people    Follow Becca On: Website: https://adhdnutritionistllc.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/adhd.nutritionist/
