What does it mean to come out as neurodivergent—especially in a corporate world that still runs on sameness? ADHD advocate, bestselling author, and Source of Sources founder Peter Shankman joins me for a wild, funny, and deeply honest conversation about masking, identity, and building a life (and career) that actually fits your brain.

We get into:

• Why companies that ignore neurodivergent talent are leaving money on the table

• What to say if you're considering “coming out” at work

• How Peter went from disruptive kid to global ADHD advocate

• The unexpected power of radical honesty

Peter doesn’t hold back—and neither do I. If you've ever felt too much or too different, this one's for you.

In this vibrant and honest convo, AVYHD and Brittany unpack what it really means to be a woman with ADHD—at work, in relationships, and in leadership. From embracing traits once labeled “too much” to building wildly different but equally powerful businesses, this episode is a love letter to neurodivergent women taking up space unapologetically. Expect real talk on identity, energy, boundaries, and why loud, emotional, chaotic leadership is exactly what the world needs.

Let’s cut the crap—what if your business isn’t actually a business… but a well-disguised escape route?

In this episode, I’m calling out the hard truth most of us ADHD entrepreneurs avoid: sometimes we build companies not from clarity, but from panic, shame, or flat-out rebellion. If calm freaks you out, if you're always chasing the next fire to put out, or if your title says “CEO” but your systems scream “help,” this one’s for you.

No hacks. No fluff. Just raw honesty about how to stop hiding behind your hustle—and finally build something that heals instead of hurts.

What if scaling your business is actually what’s burning you out?

In this episode, I’m unpacking why “grow bigger” isn’t always the answer — especially for ADHD brains. We talk about the pressure to scale, the lie that more = better, and why staying small on purpose might just be the smartest move you’ll ever make.

Let’s rethink what success really looks like — no fluff, just real talk.

Real talk? This episode punched me in the face a little.

I sat down to unpack something most of us with ADHD (especially as entrepreneurs and leaders) are deeply guilty of: trying to do it all ourselves.

You know the drill—“It’s faster if I do it,” “No one can do it like I do,” or “It’s too much to explain.” Been there. Lived there. Built a freaking business there.

But here’s the truth: that cycle will burn you out. Fast.

In this episode, I dig into:

• Why delegation feels so hard when you’re ADHD

• The perfectionism + shame spiral that keeps us stuck

• How urgency addiction sabotages our time

• Real, doable steps to finally start letting go (without imploding)

If you’re the “I’ll just do it” type—this one’s for you. No shame, just strategy. Let’s break the cycle.

This episode is something special.

I had the absolute pleasure of cohosting with Chaya Mallavaram, CEO of Spark Launch, and we dove deep into the reality of masking, the mental exhaustion of trying to “fit in,” and the power of owning who you truly are.

This conversation hit home in so many ways—letting go of expectations, finding inner peace, and realizing that authenticity is everything. If you’ve ever felt the pressure to hide parts of yourself just to be accepted, this one's for you.

Who would you be if you stopped trying to be who everyone else thinks you should be?

This episode is about dropping the masks, ditching the guilt, and finally giving yourself permission to exist as you—loud, messy, brilliant, and real. We’ve spent too much time shrinking, adjusting, and trying to fit molds that were never made for us. What happens when we just... stop?

Let’s talk about it. Listen to Episode 19: Unfiltered & Unapologetic – Letting Go of Who We ‘Should’ Be now.

#ADHD #Life #Business #SelfLove #Unfiltered #LettingGo

Relationships with ADHD aren’t just complicated—they’re a whole adventure. One minute, you're all in, hyperfixated on your person, and the next, you're overwhelmed, misunderstood, or forgetting an anniversary (not because you don’t care, but because, well… ADHD).

In this episode, we're getting real about how ADHD impacts relationships—the good, the chaotic, and the downright frustrating. Why do we struggle with time? Why do we need constant validation? And most importantly, how can we show up better for the people we love without losing ourselves in the process?

If you've ever felt like you're too much in relationships, this one’s for you. Let’s figure it out together.

In this episode of AvyHD, we’re talking about something all too real: time blindness. You know that weird feeling of being perpetually early or hopelessly late? Or that surreal time warp where five minutes feels like a lifetime—or a blink?

I unpack how ADHD distorts our sense of time, why urgency is often the only thing that motivates us, and how this can affect relationships. But don't worry—I'm not leaving you hanging in the time void! I’m sharing practical strategies like reverse-engineering your schedule, building time buffers, and using music and external cues to stay on track.

Time doesn’t have to control you! Let’s build systems that work for our brains, not society's rigid clocks. If managing time is a challenge for you, this one's for you.
