ADHD Double-Dose

Megan and Ashley are finally back, after a break. This episode sees us discuss People Pleasing, a common ADHD trait where we have a tendency to say "yes" to the requests of others, even if it means more difficulty and stress for us. We may even say yes to things we have no interest in doing. We discuss the reasons for this, as well as some useful ways to avoid automatic People Pleasing. Enjoy!

This is a special episode of the ADHD DoubleDose Podcast. Today we're joined by the creator of The ADHD Toolkit, Canadian certified ADHD Educator, Kendall Delamont. Kendall is also a qualified teacher, has two degrees, and knows all about ADHD.....because she has it. She was a joy to talk to, and provided some genuinely enlightening insights into how to overcome some of the challenges living with ADHD presents. Enjoy, and thanks so much for your time Kendall.

We spend most of our lives at work. So it makes sense that those with ADHD encounter particular challenges in that space. From executive dysfunction issues, to boredom, to super productivity, Megan and Ashley engage in an honest chat about what it's like to work with ADHD. Also, Megan wants a parrot and Ashley goes to woolies.

It's time. Megan & Ashley discuss the medications typically used to treat ADHD. We talk positives, negatives, myths and the process. All mixed in with a double dose of our own experiences. We also receive a lovely email. Enjoy!

Megan and Ashley are lucky enough to be joined by the very excellent Dr James Van Cuylenburg. Clinical Psychologist and co-host of the You're A Good Kid podcast, James is very experienced and has also appeared as an expert guest on podcasts such as The Imperfects. It was a pleasure to chat with James about all things ADHD! If you haven't listened to You're A Good Kid, now's the time. https://www.youreagoodkid.com.au/ Follow that link!
