  • Have been listening since episode 1

    I actually appreciate someone who shows up no matter how much they are struggling, hiding it badly but doing an interesting show regardless. Late diagnosis, female AUDhd diagnosed a year before the host. Was validating to hear her be so raw and open about every stage after diagnosis that we all go through. She did it live. Impressive. I’ll listen until either the show goes dark (Never!) or the world goes dark.
