Do you often feel misunderstood (as a woman with ADHD)? It's an awful feeling. Maybe it even feels like rejection. 

In today's episode I cover four key reasons I believe those of us with ADHD feel misunderstood:

  1. Environments not designed for our ADHD brains
  2. Lack of affirmation
  3. Masking
  4. Lingering stigma

At the end of the episode, I will give you actionable steps you can follow if you are struggling with feeling misunderstood. I hope you find this episode helpful and encouraging!
