There is a cost to ADHD masking... what is yours?

In today's episode, we will explore the cost of ADHD masking—when adapting to fit in becomes exhausting and damaging.

We will also discuss when masking is helpful, when it’s harmful, and we will go over a few simple strategies: notice when you mask, assess the cost, interrupt dysregulation, choose your response, and create spaces where you can be authentically yourself.

I hope you find something helpful or encouraging in today's episode. Happy listening!

Have you ever felt defined by what you're going through? As a woman with ADHD, it can sometimes feel like we are defined by the times that we show up late, the times that we forget, or the chaos that we feel.

In today's episode, I want to remind you that you are not defined by your circumstances or your experiences with ADHD.
