In this heartfelt and illuminating episode of Courage to Heal, we dive deep into a conversation that’s long overdue—exploring the often misunderstood and overlooked experience of ADHD in women and those socialized as female.

Host Anna Khandrueva sheds light on the quieter, masked forms of ADHD that don’t match the typical, boy-centric stereotypes. Through tender storytelling and deep compassion, Anna unpacks the realities of emotional dysregulation, executive dysfunction, rejection sensitivity, and chronic burnout that so many women face—often without ever knowing why.

We’ll explore how high-functioning ADHD can mask inner struggles, the profound impact of hormonal shifts across a woman’s life, and the important but rarely discussed overlap between ADHD and autism (AuDHD). Anna also shares practical, healing steps toward self-compassion, support systems, and unmasking—the brave work of showing up as your authentic self.

Tune in to rediscover the truth: you were never broken—you were simply unseen. And now, it’s time to be seen.
