Off Script is exactly what it sounds like. No notes, no pre-planned questions. Just a conversation about ADHD with someone who knows it well.

Host Lindsay Guentzel chatted with entrepreneur Andrea Wallace on Wednesday, June 29th at Start Garden in downtown Grand Rapids. Their conversation has been lightly edited for sound quality.

Note from Lindsay:

Last week, I traveled to Grand Rapids, Michigan to work with the team at ADHD Online in-person for the first.

During my time in Michigan, I met Andrea Wallace and within five minutes of hitting record on my computer knew I needed to share this conversation with you all sooner rather than later.
