Make It a Great One with Dr. Dan: #1 Podcast for Inspiring Conversations to Live and Lead On Purpose

Climbing the Walls: The Rise of ADHD in Women with Danielle Elliot


Listen Later

On today’s episode, Dr. Dan interviews Danielle Elliot – a health and science journalist, documentarian, and host of Climbing the Walls, a new limited-series investigative podcast about ADHD in women.  

Danielle was diagnosed with ADHD at the age of 36. On this critical episode, Dr. Dan and Danielle discuss the rising tide of ADHD diagnoses in women, Danielle’s journey from diagnosis to the podcast, why women historically weren’t diagnosed with ADHD (and what’s led to new ADHD diagnoses nearly doubling among women ages 20–49 between 2020-2022 according to CDC) and finally, why it’s essential to break the silence around this misunderstood topic.

Dr. Dan and Danielle dive into a deep discussion about how Climbing the Walls, created in partnership with Understood.org, gives life to the stories of the many women who have lived experiences with ADHD and explores big questions around the surge in ADHD diagnoses, and much more.

Today’s episode will shift the perspective on neurodiversity and transform lives.
