Living with ADHD means turning even the most mundane tasks like making a casserole into a chaotic, comedic journey. In this episode, Michelle and Rosey explore the tangled web of emotions, sensory overload, and masking that comes with neurodivergence, all while telling stories that will have you laughing, cringing, and nodding in recognition.

From a chicken in the kitchen to casserole-induced anxiety, Rosey’s culinary struggles become a metaphor for so much more. With sisterly banter, surprising tenderness, and their signature style of honest reflection, this episode invites listeners to see ADHD through a lens of humor and curiosity. Sometimes, navigating life means just talking to your chicken and figuring it out as you go.
