As women ADHDers, we’ve been conditioned to try harder, make more effort and apply ourselves more because it was perceived as laziness, character flaws, attitude problems, defiance and brokenness.

Instead of feeling safe you felt insecure because who you were didn’t even come close to matching others’ expectations.

If your uniquely wired brain went unnoticed or overlooked and you’re tired of trying to please everyone at your own expense, you’re in the right place.

This is where you say goodbye to old patterns, stop trying harder and discover how you can actually support your ADHD mind, and the one of those you love.

Are you one of the one billion women going through perimenopause?
This inevitable life transition can leave you feeling like a total stranger in your own body — and like you're completely losing your mind.

But you're not.

If you’re a woman with ADHD, perimenopause can make your symptoms more intense, more unpredictable, and far more confusing than anyone warned you about. I know — because I’ve been living it.

In this deeply personal and practical episode of Phenomenally ADHD, I’m sharing what really happens when hormones drop and ADHD ramps up — the signs I missed, the chaos that followed, what helped, and what I wish I knew years earlier.

Why ADHD symptoms worsen in perimenopause — and how to recognize it

How estrogen and progesterone affect focus, memory, motivation, and emotional regulation

The 4 dimensions perimenopause impacts: physical, mental, emotional, spiritual

Natural support strategies I tried (and what actually worked for me)

Why Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) became a necessary next step

How to track your cycle and symptoms in an ADHD-friendly way

“I felt like a stranger in my own body.”

My usual ADHD systems suddenly stopped working — and I thought I was failing

Hot flashes hit out of nowhere (and yes, I brought a fan to the mic)

Strength training + acupuncture helped more than I expected

Accepting this phase instead of resisting it became the most powerful shift

You’re not broken. You’re rebuilding.

A woman with ADHD feeling more overwhelmed, foggy, and emotional than usual

Wondering if your focus and memory issues are just ADHD — or something more

Looking for validation, answers, and relief during this transition

Could ADHD struggles be shaped by something deeper — something personal? This is a question I've asked myself every time I did a personality quiz because interestingly enough, there were a number of similarities pointing directly to ADHD traits.

In this episode, I dig into the science behind why ADHD symptoms might actually reflect who you are — your personality — not just the label we slap on. We’ll unpack the famed “Big Five” personality traits, explore how they overlap with ADHD, and give you concrete tests you can take (and what to do with the results). If you’ve ever felt like ADHD is only part of your story, this one’s for you. Expect science + self‑awareness + a little Gen X sass.

What you’ll learn:

The Big Five personality traits (Openness, Conscientiousness, Extraversion, Agreeableness, Neuroticism) — what they are, how they show up.

How these traits map onto ADHD symptoms and executive‑function challenges.

That ADHD isn’t the only explanation for why you act, feel, think the way you do. Your personality plays a huge role.

Practical tests you can take (Big Five, 16 Personalities, Sacred Money Archetypes) to get clearer on you.

Why knowing your personality and ADHD profile helps you build strategies that amplify your strengths (instead of just “fixing your deficits”).

You try to see the positive sides of ADHD but find it hard, especially when it's been perceived as a problem for years. Or maybe you're reminded of your challenges more than your strengths and what you are talented in. This episode reveals the truth about the biggest lie about ADHD from a scientific point of view.

Zarina Boily shares what studies show when it comes to the positive aspects of ADHD, and why being unsuccessful at believing it's not a problem has nothing to do with you or the fact that you see the glass half empty. She breaks down the steps to identifying what you appreciate about your uniquely wired brain and tap into your strengths.

From divergent-thinking to the willingness to help others, you will get science-baked proof that the spectrum of the positives aspect of ADHD is real and expanding.

Is trying to cope with ADHD is keeping you stuck? If you've been wondering why the strategies you've used for years don't work anymore, the timing might be perfect to try something radically different.

Coping doesn't allow you to speak your unique language and doesn't give you a powerful lever to thrive with ADHD. This episode provides you with the tools you need to stop mirroring what others are doing and hiding your shining colours behind a sh*t load of masking and compensating.

Thriving means ADHD gets less in the way because you do things your own way!

Are you part of a lost generation of women who were late diagnosed with ADHD? If so, you grew up believing there was something wrong with you, were believed to be "too sensitive", and were performing well in school so ADHD was never considered a possibility.

In this last part of understanding how ADHD shows up in women at different stages of life, we zero-in on how having a uniquely wired brain impacts our professional and romantic lives, but also, how ADHD is not the end of the story, but the beginning of one where you can start living by your own rules.

There are more women that are late diagnosed and part of a lost generation and here are a few that have spoken openly about having ADHD:

What does ADHD looks like for women in their 20s for undiagnosed young adults? ADHD can make it hard to remember.

In this deeply personal and powerfully relatable episode, Zarina pulls back the curtain on the misunderstood side of ADHD in young women—through impulsive decisions that were actually intuitive, heartbreak that uncovered hidden trauma, and a raw, honest journey toward self-understanding.

You’ll hear stories about bold moves, emotional intensity, toxic love, and the pivotal moment when healing began. More importantly, you’ll walk away with new language for your past, tools to navigate emotional dysregulation, and the validation you've been searching for.

ADHD shows up differently in girls than on boys, that we know, especially if you are the inattentive type, meaning, you show no signs of physical hyperactivity because it's been internalized or camouflaged.

In this episode, Zarina, unapologetic rebel, unwraps what it was like to grow up with ADHD being unbeknownst to her, her mother, family and teachers (who maybe, had a clue). 

✅ Getting kicked out of school in grade 6

✅ Breaking and entering into a neighbour’s apartment

✅ Feeling different, but thinking it was because of her skin colour
