November 21, 2024 Shinkansen and Shenanigans: Sushi, Sights, and Scatterbrain
♪ I get money, I'm a star, star, star, star, star, star, star, I get money, I'm a star ♪
As I type this, I’m just 8 hours away from boarding my flight to Japan—how exciting is that? By the time you listen, I’ll already be there, indulging in sushi and soaking in the sights... all while navigating this trip unmedicated.
That’s right—this is my first time traveling without ADHD medication and the longest I’ve gone without it in years. It’s a big shift, and in this episode, I dive into the experience: How does it feel? Can we function without our meds? What’s the line between needing medication and being dependent on it?
These are big, complex questions, and I unpack them all (pun intended!) in this episode. Tune in for some honest reflections, insights, and more!

October 22, 2024 Are you aware enough?
What does it truly mean to be aware of ADHD and neurodiversity beyond just one designated month? In this episode, I share my thoughts on ADHD Awareness Month—what it aims to achieve, the complexities around it, and why 'awareness' is both essential and potentially limited. Do we need it? Of course, but there’s more to consider. Let's unpack the layers of awareness and challenge the way we think about ADHD advocacy, not just in October, but all year round. Join me as I dive into these questions and explore a different perspective on awareness.

September 25, 2024 Drunk in ADHD
♪We woke up in the kitchen, saying, "How the hell did this sh** happen?", oh baby ♪
Alcohol, booze, the devil's liquor, champers, tipple, whatever you want to call it...alcohol is a lot! She's a bit controversial and for many (good reasons) and she's especially controversial when it comes to the ADHD brain. For some its their liquid luck, their way to mask their ADHDness and for others its a posion and not the fun one that they're talking about in that song. Let's dive into the impacts of alcohol on the ADHD brain!
