Hey everyone, 

Welcome to the Self-Loved Women Podcast. In today's episode of the Self-Loved Woman Podcast, I'm diving deep into the world of ADHD. We'll be exploring the complexities of this type of neurodivergence, including the ongoing debate about whether it should be classified as a disability or simply a neurodivergent trait.

Personal Reflections

I'll be sharing my own experiences with ADHD, as well as insights from various individuals who have been navigating this condition. We'll discuss the personal and societal implications of both labels, and how they can impact our sense of self and our interactions with the world.

ADHD in Modern Society

We'll explore how ADHD is perceived and understood in today's society. From the challenges faced by individuals with ADHD to the public's evolving understanding, we'll delve into the complexities of living with this condition in a world that often doesn't fully accommodate neurodivergent individuals.

The importance of strong support systems cannot be overstated when living with ADHD. We'll discuss the role of friends, family, and mental health professionals in helping individuals with ADHD navigate their challenges and build resilience.

Mindset and ADHD

Our mindset plays a crucial role in how we experience and manage ADHD. We'll explore the power of positive thinking, self-compassion, and self-acceptance in overcoming the stigma associated with ADHD and embracing our unique strengths.

Identity and ADHD

The debate over whether ADHD is a disability or a neurodivergence often raises questions about identity. We'll explore the complexities of this issue and discuss how individuals with ADHD can find a sense of belonging and acceptance within both communities.
