In therapy with Em Rusciano

Jordy is BEYOND excited to be joined by Em Rusciano this week. It was Em's honesty & advocacy that gave Jordy that 'oh shit, I am DEFINITELY ADHD' moment. Jordy and Em unravel the layered experiences of neurodivergent women. From the difficult diagnostic experience to what comes after. The conversation is a little scattered because, 2 ADHD women, but we hear all about Em's life both pre and post diagnosis. How is she mothering differently post-diagnosis? What was it like working in the media while undiagnosed? And lastly, a thought that's probably crossed a lot of neurodivergent minds; How would life have been different if she'd been diagnosed earlier?Like the title of this ep suggests, it's a little like a therapy session from someone who is a little further along in their ADHD/autism experience. If you loved this ep and want to learn more, listen to Em's new podcast ANOMALOUS: a 5 part love letter to the neurodivergent community & a roadmap for neurotypical people.SHOW NOTESListen to Anomalous on Apple here or wherever you get your podcastsLinks to episodes mentioned in intro on APPLE:Christie Whelan BrowneGeorgie TunnyLucy DurackMelissa LeongOr search It's All Her wherever you get your podcasts.Stay up to date with the latest at ItsAllHer.com or follow us on Instagram @itsallherofficial Hosted on Acast.
