Bonner Black: Brain Balancing & Bird Watching
Update: 2025-11-18
Description
In this episode of The Write Brain podcast, Ellis and Dr. Melillo sit down with singer-songwriter and viral bird-watcher Bonner Black to talk about ADHD, maladaptive daydreaming, and the brutal emotional comedown after big performances and life wins.
Bonner opens up about panic attacks, self-harm, and growing up as a homeschooled, right-brained kid on a Tennessee farm—plus how bird-watching unexpectedly became one of the most powerful tools for calming her nervous system and activating her left brain.
They break down right-brain vs left-brain ADHD, why creatives often feel intense shame and self-loathing after being in the spotlight, and the hopeful reality that you can retrain your brain without losing your gifts.
