Re-framing ADHD and taking a more strength-based approach.In this first solo episode back, Kate shares a snippet from one of her online workshops. This particular workshop focused on Kate's week-long course with Dr Ned Hallowell, a renowned author and psychiatrist specialising in ADHD. His books, such as Driven to Distraction and ADHD 2.0, have led to new learnings and perspective shifts in ADHD.During this short clip, Kate talks bout how our ADHD resilience, drive, and stubbornness can help us to keep picking ourselves up and persisting in life.She also talks about our curiosity, imagination, desire for authentic collaborations and connection, as well as our need to seek true fulfilment.Kate also talks about the positive re-frames that Dr Hallowell encourages us to take, so we can live a life that puts our ADHD strengths in the spotlight. Also, Kate explains what the Default Mode Network (DMN) is and how this recent discovery explains many of the negative thought patterns people with ADHD are susceptible to.

"Embracing and working with our strengths teaches us to thrive with ADHD."Speaking about an autism or ADHD diagnosis within the workplace can feel daunting, exposing and scary. However, when we advocate for ourselves within our work setting, we are enabling the support, care and accommodations we deserve. Working with - and no longer - against our brains means we can excel more in our careers without the burnout and exhaustion that typically comes with neurodiversity. Often the way we work can look different to others, but that doesn't mean it's less effective. The more we talk about this and allow different options to be implemented, the healthier, happier and more productive we feel within our work environment. This week’s guest, Samantha Hiew is the Director of ADHD Girls, a company founded with a social mission to empower girls and women with ADHD through effective advocacy, education and specialists’ insights.With a background in healthcare communications and a PhD in Cancer Research, Samantha is passionate about helping individuals with ADHD access employment and training organisations to provide the support they need to thrive in their circumstances, thereby increasing happiness and wellbeing and improving productivity.During this episode of The ADHD Women's Wellbeing Podcast, Kate and Samantha spoke about: Feeling alone after an ADHD diagnosis The power of anecdotal experiencesThe benefits of being around others like you and community Sam's autism diagnosis and her surpriseADHD and Autism often going hand in handNeeding to have a passion, fulfilment to stave off depressionSam's mission with ADHD diagnosisRecognition Responsive Euphoria and what it is and looks like Navigating ADHD and Neurodiveristy in the workplaceHow employers can boost their ADHD employee's confidence Advocating for yourself in the workplaceEmbracing our strengths and interests to thrive with ADHDYou can connect with Samantha via adhdgirls.co.uk or on social media via Instagram, LinkedIn and Twitter, @adhd_girlsThanks to our sponsor, Brain.
