Episode 66
What if the struggles you’ve carried for decades weren’t personal failures — but undiagnosed ADHD finally coming into focus?
In this warm, funny, and deeply relatable episode, Jami is joined by her longtime best friend Lynn Layfield for an honest conversation about friendship, late-diagnosed ADHD, and why finding the right support makes all the difference — especially after 50.
From lost permission slips and cluttered craft rooms to dopamine-seeking habits and “ADHD tax,” Jami and Lynn share real-life stories that will have you laughing, nodding, and saying, “Oh wow… that’s me.” They also pull back the curtain on an exciting new membership community designed specifically for women navigating ADHD later in life — built with accountability, humor, and zero judgment.
This episode is part friendship hangout, part ADHD education, and part sneak peek into what’s coming next for the Grandma Has ADHD community.
Together, Jami and Lynn talk about:
• recognizing ADHD patterns that were mistaken for personality or aging
• why one person’s ADHD can look totally different from another’s
• ADHD and technology — why some of us thrive with it and others avoid it
• clutter, cortisol, and the emotional weight women carry in the home
• impulse spending, unfinished projects, and the “craft supply cycle”
• the real cost of ADHD (hello, ADHD tax)
• why community, body doubling, and accountability actually work
• creating systems that make life easier — not harder
And of course… Lynn answers the famous Button Question: “If you could erase your ADHD forever… would you?”
