Today’s episode features an enlightening conversation about ADHD with Tracy Otsuka of ADHD for Smart Ass Women.
In this episode, Tracy and I dive deep into the nuances of ADHD, particularly in women. We explore how positive emotion and recognizing individual strengths can significantly enhance the lives of those affected by ADHD.
Here are three key takeaways:
⭐ Positive Emotion is Crucial: By age 12, a child with ADHD may have heard 20,000 more negative messages than a child without ADHD. Surround yourself with positive people and environments to boost productivity and well-being.
⭐ Focus on Strengths and Interests: ADHD brains have an interest-based nervous system, excelling in tasks they are passionate about. Find your strengths, talents, and passions, and use them to find purpose and achieve success.
⭐ ADHD in Women and Girls: Recognizing ADHD in women is challenging, as it often presents as inattention and internalized symptoms, leading to misdiagnoses of anxiety and depression. Understanding these differences is crucial for effective management and support.
