Today’s episode is with comedian Maria Williams, and I must admit, I did have a moment where I cried with laughter while editing this episode! Maria is also a teacher, and lives with a diagnosis of ADHD, or attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. 

In this episode, Maria shares the journey of her ADHD diagnosis, from a diagnosis in Hawai’i that she was convinced was a misdiagnosis to an eventual diagnosis at age 32. She also shares her symptoms and how she manages them, her frustrations in why it took so long, and leaves us all with some advice.

Maria also talks about why she’s so passionate about spreading awareness, and gives us a bit of an insight into her upcoming comedy shows!
