In this episode, my client Joe Corpus is here to discuss his path to self-awareness and the crucial role that acceptance played in the process. J...

I can HIGHLY recommend the app Paprika for saving recipes and maintaining a grocery list. It's helped me stay organised, it's a game changer for someone with ADHD.
Ep 241 So good.
Podcasts that don't get to the point are a waste of time.
The irony of this speaker talking about racism but completely neglecting to talk about the AAPI comnunity.
👏👏👏
really missed on this one Kristen. sounds like a lot of insider baseball. I was 15 minutes in before I was figuring out what you were even talking about.
as a adhder .i have a social phobia and anxiety .most of the time i can't go out .because i think that i might get lost and because of this i think that These thoughts have paralyzed my mind.please talk about this in your another podcast .maby it can helps me .
lordy I want to join Focused but I def can't swing $199 a month although I'm sure it's worth it.....
That's imposter syndrome. 200 IS huge! congrats!
I had to pause this episode because it brought up feelings in me that I was unprepared for. I’m recently diagnosed as an adult and hearing you describe your shame for things in your younger years really made me feel so sad for my younger self
I'd really like to check out some of those resources you mentioned, but I can't seem to find them where they should be. Have they been removed since this is an old episode?
Hey Kristen! This episode blew my mind!!! Let me share a little about myself to explain why. I am 34 years old, mom of two, Norwegian nurse with a bachelor's degree, and at the moment in my 3rd year of "sickleave". I put it in the quote marks because I, and everyone else, believed I had an incapacitating depression due to several issues spanning from my childhood to my early 20s. I have received therapy, medication and a lot of help, and i can't believe that my boyfriend hasn't left yet... A couple of months ago I accidentally (and finally) persuaded my therapist to examine me for ADHD, which he categorically turned down when we first met, and I met all the criteria except for one area. I'm not visible hyperactive. So a new journey began. I started testing out stimulants a month ago and discovered that my ADHD had impacts far beyond what I suspected, and that most of my symptoms for depression probably was my ADHD. My depression is real, but also probably a symptom of undiagnosed ADHD.
Is there only one type of adhd.
It won't let me play this episode 😭
this has helped me out so much
I love your podcast! It's like a goldmine of useful info. I also love how you cannot help yourself from externalising those thoughts that come up. Mega cute :)
This is the best thing I have ever heard.
mind blowing
These podcasts are really helping me look into my recent diagnosis of ADHD at the age of 42. I'm a single MUM and right now finding life a struggle. Thank you for your positive words.
