Description

How do you navigate the world, when you feel like you've never been able to understand your own mind? Join us this week on Up Past Bedtime as Bella shares her deeply personal journey of being diagnosed with ADHD and ASD at 28, unpacking the profound impact it had on her marriage, parenting, and self-perception. 


We also explore the financial and emotional toll of undiagnosed ADHD and postpartum depression, illustrating the struggles Bella faced managing a household: From impulse control issues to emotional regulation. We candidly discuss the challenges we've faced particularly in the last 12 months, the importance of seeking proper medical help and go into detail about the long journey towards a diagnosis.


We wanted to take a moment to express our deep gratitude to our supportive community and the women who reached out with their own stories, Bella will be forever grateful for your willingness to be vulnerable with her throughout her own diagnosis journey.
