About this episode
What if your ADHD had been recognised years ago… how different could things have been?
In this bonus episode, Katie and Sam reflect on their powerful conversation with author Grace Timothy, and dive deeper into how undiagnosed ADHD shapes our lives, relationships and sense of self. Katie shares candidly about her own experience of burnout, people pleasing, and the emotional weight of a complex relationship with her late mother- a journey made all the more poignant by her belief that ADHD played a role for them both.
Together, they unpack the grief, guilt and revelations that can come after diagnosis, and why radical acceptance is sometimes the most healing path of all. From shrinking your world to avoid failure, to the challenge of asking for help, this is an intimate and honest look at what it means to untangle the past while finding compassion for your ADHD self today.
