Description

“Telling neurodivergent people to try harder is like telling someone with Type 1 diabetes to just make insulin.”

That line stopped me in my tracks… and it was only one of the powerful moments from the ADHD Conference I just MC’d here in NZ.

If you ever get the chance to attend an ADHD conference… do it. The energy, the learning, the ‘OMG same’ moments - truly amazing!

In this episode, I’m sharing the biggest lessons from each speaker, plus some behind-the-scenes as the MC from the most recent ADHD Conference here in NZ.

Here’s a taste of what we cover:
