Hello and Welcome to Season 11, Episode 13 of the TTHLC Podcast for ADHD and AuDHD.

Today I speak with Meghan Bonde from Westminster, Colorado who is a Neurodivergent Learning and Development Specialist and TEDX Speaker.

Meghan has always been creative, starting a business in the family basement teaching kids and childcare as a nine year old loving to help others and to problem solve anything that came up.

She helped her mum with teaching and later became a Speech Language Pathologist.

When working in the schools and meeting kids that learned differently, she noticed the kids strengths although they weren't doing well, so she pursued the idea that the way kids learning needed to change, and also their environment too.

We speak about the following topics today.

- Working with the educational system

- Leadership roles and Meghan's "Principal Licence"

- Two years ago she found out she is Neurodivergent

- Neuro-normalitivity

- Twice Exceptional

- 5 Intensities - Debrowskis research

- Self diagnosis of ND from self awareness

- Growth and Stay Interview Protocol

- First Neurodivergent Chamber of Commerce, Colorado

- Promoting and development of ND in business and equity and opportunity in Employment

- Central Auditory Processing

Meghan and I really hope you enjoy our episode today.

Hello and Welcome to Season 11, Episode 10 of the TTHLC Podcast.

Today I am speaking with Michael Ankers who is nineteen years old from Chadderton in England.

He is a singer/ songwriter, Youtuber and has Autism and Low Muscle Tone.

Michael is currently in his first year at the University of Huddersfield studying Drama and we have a great discussion about his Autism diagnosis, the support he gets, including that from his very supportive family, the importance of having ND friends, seeking help when we need it, and the importance of finding things that you enjoy, such as listening to music.

Recently, Michael was in the music studio recording a song that is soon to be realised (on 17th May) called "Burden".

For autistics and parents of Autistics, this episode gives you certain tools and ideas you can use when you have young adults preparing for University and the experience of University Life.

I thoroughly enjoyed this episode and Michael and I hope you all do too.

Thanks.

Hello and welcome to Season 12, Episode 3 of the Solo series of the TTHLC Podcast

Buena Vista Social Club

Today is a nostalgic episode of ADHD.

A bit part of my upbringing was being around „Big Bands“, hearing trumpets being played, when I spent time with my grandparents and their very musical friends who would do live performances .Unfortunately, I was too young to actually attend any of the big band sessions but the weekends of the musicans together really bought out their love for their instruments and producing music.

I then explain how, I have totally missed out of epic videos like „Buena Vista Social Club“ and am catching up on all them now, at the age of 47… We say late diagnosis Autism and/or ADHD but we comet late to the party on many areas in life.

When I spoke to Kara Laws on the podcast we both share our ADHD experiences of just missing out on culture.

Just recently, I thought „POP“ culture had something to do with Michael Jackson, instead of what it means today - „POPular culture“. 

The penny just doesn’t drop with us for such a long time, it at ALL :)

So, I hope you enjoy the episode today.

Please don’t forget to like, follow and leave any questions and opinions you have on Spotify and I will do my best to answer you straight away.

Thanking you in joining me today.

Hello and Welcome to Season 12, Episode 2 of the Solo series of the TTHLC Podcast

The topic today is Meditation and why it is important to incorporate meditation into your life with ADHD and AuDHD.

My first experience with meditation ended up with my experiencing 3 hours of meditation, sitting on a Yoga mat and after speaking with experts and doctors on this experience, including Jennifer on the Podcast it seems I has between 5 and 8 years of healing.

In the very first season of The Thirteen Hour Life Coach Podcast I cover „Morning Meditation“ and „Evening Meditation“, so try and catch this episode for more of a detailed example as to why meditation is very healthy for us.

This episode is an update after having meditated now every day for 5 years, and my ordainment as a Buddhist, this is topic I love to talk about and many of you listening can benefit from this practice.

I am also laughing my own meditations for ADHD, AuDHD and Brain Tumor. Please find the link to „Sun Ray Meditation“ here.

I hope you enjoy the episode today.

Please don’t forget to like, follow and leave any questions and opinions you have on Spotify and I will do my best to answer you straight away.

Thanking you in joining me today.

Hello and Welcome to Season 11, episode 8 of TTHLC Podcast discussing ADHD, Autism and AuDHD.

Today I speak with Fran, better known as "Headnooks" who received a late diagnosis of ADHD at the age of 38.

He talks about his sobriety, and we bring out a really good episode talking about ADHD and Men, including the Diagnosis Phase for ADHD and the differences and inclusion of the medicated route and non-medicated route for those who have a new diagnosis.

Fran speaks about how men are less likely to reach out for help and how we feel that a lot of things are on our shoulders, but we both agreed on the area of ADHD and how it impacts both our lives in a very relaxed and informative manner. We have a few laughs in between and lighten up the mood, which is quite difficult to do when speaking on a subject such as ADHD.

We both did a very good job.

Headnooks (Fran) thank you for being a guest on the TTHLC Podcast and we are both confident that many Men having a late diagnosis for ADHD can learn many things from our discussion today, and if not, use Tiktok (not all the videos) but a great deal of information will bring you further than a therapist who may not know s much as us who have ADHD.

We hope you can listen in today.

Hello and Welcome to Season 11, Episode 7 of TTHLC Podcast

Today I speak with Lacey Richcreek who has Cerebral Palsy.

I am so grateful to speak to Lacey who is taking a break from social media at the moment, but she made time for me, which is just wonderful.

We discuss that having a disability is a real thing  and I ask Lacey the following questions:

We share our dislike for fireworks and that for both of us, staying inside and listening to music is the better option :)

That Lacey didn’t have any friends from the age of 8 or 9 until the age of 20 years old.

Lacey brings up a brilliant point of view that when she wants to build up a new social relationship, and her learning to be an adult the building up of a friendship comes in between cooking and cleaning - so things take a lot of time and energy (which we can definitely use in our lives, what ever age we are :)

Lacey says that when walking , counting her steps is a good tip and in order for her to be more mobile she does need the help of her very supportive family.

We talk about relationships with a disability and it’s important for everyone, whether we have Cerebral Palsy, ADHD, Autism or AuDHD that the right loving person is out there for us. Lacey has a wonderful boyfriend called „Lance“ in which she describes how they met and how the unison between the two of them has resonated positively through the family.

This is my absolute favourite episode of TTHLC Podcast, it took a month for us to get to talk with each other and this is a podcast I will never forget.

Thank you Lacey for sharing your life with us.
