EP. 258: The Power of Hope: Rewriting the ADHD Narrative

Doing this kind of work, I often feel like I’m going up against an industry that sees ADHD only as a weakness. But not only is there science and research to refute these negative misconceptions, there's also you, the thousands of ADHD women that I've had the privilege of meeting. And I just know after meeting all of you that they're getting it wrong.    Everywhere I go, there's another kick-ass entrepreneur who tells me that they have ADHD too. So the way I see it, I had to write this book not just for you and other women, but for the young girls who will follow us, because if they can grow up in a world that values their brilliant, albeit unique brains, their lives are going to be completely different.    Writing this book is about more than just turning pages in a book, it's about changing chapters in women and girls' lives. I hope that my book doesn't just flip the script on ADHD, I hope that it totally rewrites the ending. So now I bring you the Audible introduction of my book, ADHD for Smart Ass Women.Today, I’m promoting my son Marcus, an NYU graduate, skilled in digital advertising and tech marketing. He's planning a solo trip to South America and seeking job opportunities in New York City. Known for his resilience and research abilities, Marcus is ready to contribute to any team.
