I love your show - is the show on a break?
Really looking forward to the next episode❣️

I am so in love with this podcast. I myself am a later-diagnosed woman who is now a mental health clinician. I love listening to you two unmask in real time, normalize our experiences, and just be FUN AND SHINY!!! Thanks for this amazing resource.
Every episode teaches me something new about ADHD and about myself. Funny and smart and relatable!
