Nancy Armstrong: “The Disruptors” & tackling ADHD stereotypes


Listen Later

Episode 100 with Nancy Armstrong.

“There’s a lot of finger-pointing that this is your fault and if you were trying harder, you could overcome this, but clearly you’re not trying.”

Nancy is the executive producer of the powerful, award-winning documentary “The Disruptors,” which debunks many prevailing negative stereotypes around ADHD and includes interviews with celebrities, athletes & entrepreneurs with ADHD, as well as many prominent ADHD experts.

Nancy’s husband, their son and their two daughters have all been diagnosed with ADHD, and the documentary was inspired by her family’s experiences navigating life with ADHD, and the frustrating stigmas and misconceptions they’ve experienced along the way. 

We talk all about the making of the documentary, the difficult journeys and choices faced by the families in the film, and the heartwarming advice from celebrities like Paris Hilton, will.i.am, Scott Kelly, Howie Mandel, Michelle Carter, and tons more.

If you have ADHD or love someone with ADHD, then this film is an absolute “must-watch”! You can find the documentary to rent on iTunes, Apple TV, YouTube, Google Play, Amazon, and Vudu.
