See in ADHD

Sarah Castañeda is a journalist turned online marketer/blogger. But it wasn't until her diagnosis, in 2013, when her writing and passion became one. Now she writes to inform and create awareness of ADHD, more specifically, how ADHD is different for women.

I encourage you to check her blog, Adulting with ADHD

You can also reach out to her on Twitter @adultingadhd

SARAH'S AWESOME QUOTE:

“I call it surviving. You're surviving everyday... you're a survivor.”

ADHD is Different For Women

Here's an excerpt from Sarah's About page at adultingwithadhd.com.

"The topic of ADHD in women has fascinated me since 2013, when I was first diagnosed. I was seeing a psychiatrist about other mental health issues and she put it together. It has changed my life ever since and continues to impact me every day. It opened me to a new world in which I didn’t feel like a punchline, but instead somebody with a completely treatable real illness. This awareness combined with the proper treatment has enabled me to accomplish things that were never before possible.

ADHD is commonly considered a little boy’s disease because the symptoms look different in girls. Maybe you weren’t the class clown, nor did you talk too much in school. Maybe you fell through the cracks and are part of this fascinating lost generation of women who are coming into their own as awareness of ADHD women continues to rise. Maybe you’ve heard people say ADHD isn’t real or that you’ve been frivolously diagnosed. This blog aims to unpack all of this and more."

Sometimes you get the diagnosis of adult ADHD later in life rather than as a child. So, imagine what a surprise it is when you are told you have this hyper-little-boy thing and you're a woman approaching 50.

Well, it may have initially been a surprise, but it ended up being something that helped explain a lot of things for Agnes Green.

As a successful business woman she would have never guessed she had a neurobiological condition that accounted for the different way she lived her life. As she explains it, everyone wanted her to do things in a way that, although linear, made no sense to her.

AGGIE'S AWESOME QUOTE:

“Medication alone doesn't improve the management of ADHD.”

Adult ADHD Later in Life

We all experience several transitions as we get older. Empty nesting is one. Becoming a grandparent is another. Creating a second career is still another one not so uncommon today.

My dear friend Agnes has gone off the deep end, taken the plunge, and with wild abandon reinvented her ... career!

It's a pretty big deal. What inspires a high acheiving tech girl to leave corporate security and cross into the funtastic field of coaching? I'll let her tell you herself and I bet you'll become a fan just as I am.

Of course, every good coach can be reached via email, so while her AgnesGreenCoaching.com is a work in progress, she's still accessible at [email protected]

Check out her new business page on Facebook, Agnes Green Coaching, or join her and me in the facebook group, See in ADHD.

Listen in, as Jacqueline Sinfield, of Untapped Brilliance, shares her adventures which led her to becoming an ADHD Coach and what she's discovered about managing ADHD, dyslexia and sleep along the way. She is so brilliant I know you'll get something to think about out of our discussion.

2016 is shaping up to be an amazing one for Jacqueline. She's already been awarded for two of Healthline's Best ADHD Blogs of 2016: Untapped Brilliance and Very Well

JACQUELINE'S AWESOME QUOTE:

“Everything that I've learned subconsciously and consciously with Dyslexia totally works with people with ADHD.”

ADHD, Dyslexia & Sleep

You may wonder why Jacqueline has had such success with her clients that have ADHD using what she's learned about dyslexia. The reason is simple, there is a lot of overlap in symptoms.

Symptoms traditionally associated with dyslexia include: reading or writing shows repetitions, additions, transpositions, omissions, substitutions, and reversals in letters, numbers and/or words / complains of feeling or seeing non-existent movement while reading, writing, or copying.

Symptoms that overlap with ADHD include: has difficulty telling time, managing time, learning sequenced information or tasks, or being on time / poor memory for sequences, facts and information that has not been experienced / extremely disorderly or compulsively orderly

As for sleep...

Jacqueline has developed an exciting course that you can access right now!

It's called Sleep Solutions and comes with membership benefits like a secret Facebook Support Group.

Be sure and listen to us talk about sleep and Jacqueline's thoughts on her course.

"No, is a complete sentence," according to this fierce woman who values empowering women through her niceness while teaching them to say NO!

I'm so excited for you to meet her and hear her for yourself. She's a gifted storyteller and I'm thrilled she's sharing what she's learned about a myriad of subjects from embracing fear to how to get motivated.

Oh, and yes, we touch on her ADHD.

Be sure and check out her blog, A Teacher Called Life at ckinlaw87.blogspot.com

CANDACE'S AWESOME QUOTE:

“I'm gonna take my niceness and I'm gonna touch the world with it.”

You know what Carl Jung, Albert Einstein, and Napoleon Hill all have in common? They inspired Candace Kinlaw to begin affecting positive change by empowering women. I happened to catch her first Periscope session on Twitter and immediately asked her to join me here on the show.

She's out to make a difference but she's also figuring out how as she goes along.

Her latest venture is in creating a home business that helps support her family.
