Managing Emotions During the ADHD Job Hunt with Dr. Doug Herr Part II
Season 20
Episode 3
Published 6 years, 7 months ago
Description
We started the conversation last week with our guest, Dr. Doug Herr, with the assumption that you’re not working by some level of choice. But what if you’ve been fired, or your contract hasn’t been renewed, or you’re feeling trapped by evaluations that seem to be targeting your ADHD?
This week, Dr. Doug is back to talk about managing the emotional blocks of the job hunt when the circumstances aren’t so rosy.
