Today we’re doing something a little different.  I am sharing an episode of another podcast.  It’s called ADHD Aha! And it’s hosted by Laura Key.  It includes candid stories from people who share the moment it clicked that they, or someone they know, has ADHD. I wanted to do this because I know from talking to our audience that ADHD is something that many of you are experiencing.
I hope you give it a listen, and if it resonates, give ADHD Aha! Podcast a follow.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
