  • 033 ADHD Sensitivity & RSD
    ADHD SENSITIVITY & RSD
    Have you ever heard of Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria? According to Dr. William Dodson, an ADHD expert with a private practice in Colorado, he’s created a 19th question after the DSM’s 18 question criterion:
    “Question # 19: For your entire life have you always been much more sensitive than other people you know to rejection, teasing, criticism, or your own perception that you have failed or fallen short?”
    HAPPY'S AWESOME QUOTE:
    “If you say something to me, you better mean it … because I’m gonna take it like you meant it!”
    ADHD Sensitivity
    My friend, Happy Little, and I discuss the extreme sensitivity found in people with ADHD. She understands just as well as anyone can, “a life of wearing your skin inside out.”
    It was during a webinar I put on when Happy heard of Rejection Sensitivity Dysphoria and instantly said, “That’s me!”, just as 99.9% of Dr. William Dodson’s patients tell him.
    So, Happy and I figure there’s definitely something going on here that people need to talk about.

  • 032 | Your ADHD Advantage
    Have you found your ADHD advantage? Peter Shankman has and is doing all he can to get the word out. Check out his blog/podcast, Faster Than Normal, which features ADHD success stories such as his. Along with tips and tricks, Peter leverages his ADHD for all of its gifts, and helps you learn how to use yours as a superpower.
    His focus is on working at being better and always helping others improve their personal and professional lives. I like his Twitter bio, I think it describes how successful and fascinating he is:
    "Best-selling #CustServ author/futurist, keynote speaker, angel investor, marketer, @NASA advisor, HARO Founder. Ironman. Skydiver. Dad."
    PETER'S AWESOME QUOTE:
    “Be who you are, because that's what you're best at!”
    ADHD Advantage
    Taken from Faster Than Normal most recent blog post:
    "But you know what came out of those years of hell? Superpowers. In addition to typing well over 100 words a minute as an adult, there was one huge benefit that I didn’t know was being planted in my young brain at the time: I was learning to not only accept being different, but to use it to my advantage, for the rest of my life. I can attribute the majority of my success, both personal and professional, to the fact that I’ve never been 'normal'."
    I urge you to check out all of Peter's good works including ShankMinds: Breakthrough Mastermind group. He's turned his ADHD to his advantage and can help you too.

  • 031 ADHD Isn't Real
    Laura Stoker is no stranger to people who think ADHD isn't real. You see, she used to be one of those people. But then she discovered differently and began sharing her story in hopes that others will know it is real and they're not alone.
    She's written a book, blogs, and shares on Facebook, all under the same name: Our ADHD Story. It's been through sharing her story, and others', that she's spreading awareness and education about ADHD.
    LAURA'S AWESOME QUOTE:
    "You gotta figure out what kind of mom you are and go be okay with that."
    "ADHD Isn't Real"
    Laura remembers a time when she thought, "ADHD isn't real." But after watching her son's struggle, for years, she decided it was time to see if maybe there was something else going on that she had no control over.
    After all, she was a devoted and loving mother, but something wasn't clicking for her and her son.
    It was through the process of her son's diagnosis that she learned what ADHD was and how she had been living with it her entire life. That understanding helped her whole family and changed their lives.

  • 030 ADHD Moms Celebrating Mother's Day
    Mother's Day guilt plagues many ADHD moms who already question if they are good enough. When reality is sometimes the laundry isn't done and sometimes dinner is bologna sandwiches, how do we embrace this day of celebrating our Momminess?
    ADHD and Ability Coach, Ril Giles, is SuperADDmom. Listen as she describes her experiences helping us answer this question.
    We laugh, we cry, no...not really...well, we do laugh...a lot...and talk about how no mom is alone. The path of motherhood can be a challenge for any woman. When you have ADHD that path can seem, in some ways, more challenging AND in other ways more fun!
    RIL'S AWESOME QUOTE:
    Ril describes it as being the mom who is scrambling to wash the soccer outfit 20 minutes before your child has to be wearing it on the soccer field or the mom who is tossing together weird ingredients and calling it spaghetti because you forgot some key ingredient at the grocery store because you didn't use a shopping list.
    The madcap mania she describes is a part of being a mother with ADHD. But so is being the fun parent who can get on the floor and play with her kids...and a lot of other reasons that we talk about, so tune in!
    This Mother's Day give yourself break and realize how wonderful you are, that's what we're planning.

    What do parenting, ADHD &Parenting Abroad (the podcast) have in common? Jennifer Zoll Langkjaer.

    JENNIFER'S AWESOME QUOTE:
    "It's not laziness, and it's not defiance."
    Parenting & ADHD
    While she's not sure she has ADHD herself, Jennifer explains that all the signs point to yes. Through her son's rigorous diagnostic process she learned about ADHD and the truth about what it is and what it isn't. It was in learning how to be a better parent for him, she also learned about how to be more gentle with herself.

  • 028 A Mission Greater Than Yourself & Your ADHD
    When a mom advises to find "a mission greater than yourself," it may seem she's referring to motherhood. When Amber Elizabeth Jumper says it, she's talking about motherhood and more!
    Amber Elizabeth has found purpose in raising business and babies. (And, she didn't think she could make a difference on such a large scale.)
    Check out below, all of the beautiful eco-friendly jewelry she's selling via network marketing from home.
    Amber Elizabeth's Awesome Quote:
    "You have to find a purpose bigger than yourself."
    A Mission Great Than ADHD
    There are many reasons someone with ADHD may enjoy working from home. Listen, as Amber Elizabeth rattles off four really good ones, but the number one reason she's involved in her current work-from-home role isn't even on that list.
    Amber Elizabeth has found purpose through being home for her kids AND saving our planet. When she discovered Color by Amber, she jokes, "When I heard of the company it had my name all over it...literally."

    Life is a journey and Eric Tivers has journeyed into life with ADHD. If nothing else, you could say he's discovered that it's all been quite A.T.R.I.P.
    Beginning with his life's education, Eric shares his college experience and recounts how he came to discover his ADHD and what he did to manage it.
    You won't believe the impact ADHD medication made on him.
    ERIC'S AWESOME QUOTE:
    "I just uncovered a huge, huge blindspot...it changed the way I thought about myself."

  • 025 ADHD Medication And The Info Doctors Don't Share
    Did you know that there's some info doctors don't share when prescribing ADHD medication? If they did, a lot of mistakes could be lessened or, in some cases, altogether prevented.
    In our discussion, René Brooks and I talk about making mistakes that can't be helped versus the ones that can, which takes us on an interesting journey into ADHD awareness, education, and medication.
    Listen, as she shares what it was like when she was first diagnosed and given her ADHD medication.
    RENÉ'S AWESOME QUOTE:
    "You can't keep bouncing back and forth between being consistent and inconsistent and expect to get anywhere."
    When René was first treated for ADHD, she had big ideas about the medication she was given, and learned the hard way about the info doctors don't share, including hers. So, what happens when you think one thing and the truth is something else? Rene has an engaging way of telling her stories, so find a comfy spot, sit back, and enjoy.
    René Brooks is the creator of blackgirllostkeys.com and a talented blogger, crocheter, ADHD advocate and adventurer.
