Listen Later

We still can’t believe this happened! 
Award winning Australian Author, feminist icon and absolute legend Clementine Ford shares her ADHD story with us in this very special episode. 

Clementine’s bestselling book ‘Fight Like a Girl’ is the essential feminists manifesto.  Her other incredible writing work includes: ‘Boys Will Be Boys’ and her latest book: ‘How We Love.’  Previously a columnist for Fairfax’s Daily Life; Clementine is also a regular contributor to The Age and The Sydney Morning Herald. 

Her own Podcast ‘Dear Clementine’ is packed with advice that you may not want, but you definitely need…so give that a listen too! 

Clementine was diagnosed with ADHD this year at the age of 40; and she very kindly hopped aboard the late ADHD diagnosis rollercoaster with us.  
In this episode she shares reflections of her childhood, relationships, work, motherhood and the future, through a new ADHD lens. 

There is so much to take away from this insightful ‘blether’, the magic eye analogy in particular is life changing! Thank you thank you thank you Clementine! 

*Trigger warning, as ever we are a tad sweary, we discuss mental health crisis, family bereavement, maternal struggles, relationship problems, alcohol, substance use and addiction.
