Write everything down to remember the things that bring value, construction, and achievements so the walls that you so wildly bounce off of don’t imprison you. That was the advice that Steve Revland received from his therapist early on in life as a way to cope with his ADHD. And decades later Steve, now a 70-year-old artist and musician, still keeps that advice close.

 

Tune in to hear Steve talk about his life and work, how Dyslexia and Tourettes affect his ADHD, and how woodworking not only earned him awards and appearances on HGTV but also provide him focus.
