Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Episode 92 - Why Knowing You Have ADHD Matters At ANY Age
Q: What is the one takeaway for someone discovering ADHD later in life?
Things change, and when you retire or become an empty nester, your previous coping strategies may not sustain you; it's about building new systems that work with your brain and gradually creating external structures.
Episode 91 - ADHD & Adult Friends with Caroline Maguire
Q: Were you at the 2024 Pen Holderness Conference?
Yes, Caroline confirms attending the 2024 conference, and they discuss the broader context of events and how such gatherings connect with themes in the book and coaching work.
Episode 89 - Try Not To Get Into That Time Machine & Other Ways To Stop Ruminating
Q: For listeners who cannot take stimulant medications, what options exist?
Kristen discusses integrative and functional medicine as a path to identify root causes, use micronutrient optimization (e.g., magnesium glycinate), and collaborate with qualified providers who can combine non-pharmacological strategies with meds if appropriate. She underscores that many people can benefit from a multifaceted approach.
Episode 89 - Try Not To Get Into That Time Machine & Other Ways To Stop Ruminating
Q: What is CBT and why is it especially relevant for ADHD in adults?
CBT is about how thoughts drive emotions and behaviors. Kristen explains that ADHD often involves negative core beliefs formed early in life, which CBT helps to challenge with evidence, reframe, and replace with more realistic thinking. This process can reduce rumination and improve functioning.
Episode 89 - Try Not To Get Into That Time Machine & Other Ways To Stop Ruminating
Q: First and foremost, can you share your ADHD journey and how you came to work in this field?
Kristen describes self-diagnosing in her 40s, transitioning from architecture to psychology and art therapy, and embracing ADHD as a central thread in her professional niche. She emphasizes a long-standing curiosity about human behavior, the influence of hormones and life stages, and the value of CBT and integrative approaches in treatment.
