Honestly saved my life. Found you during a burnout period and you gave me clarity and understanding and I always say knowledge is power. You’ve been helping me get through it and understand my brain little by little. Thank you !
As someone who's intimately familiar with the unique challenges of navigating life with a neurodivergent brain, I cannot recommend the Overcoming Distractions podcast highly enough. David Greenwood's 'street-smart' approach to managing adult ADHD is refreshingly practical and grounded in real-world experience.
Love the joyful discussions between you guys. Just listening to my first episode and can’t wait to tuck into more. I am recently diagnosed and you are helping me a lot and putting a big smile on my face.
Please change the awful annoying theme music.
I have been listening to this podcast consistently for about a year now and I find it to be so encouraging. I have ADHD and co-own a business and I feel like this is my community. Thank you for what you do, David!
