In this episode, I sit down with my school friend Jade to unpack her entire ADHD diagnosis journey: what finally prompted her to seek answers, the childhood signs she now recognises, and how her life has shifted both before and after putting a name on her experience.

 

🔸 What You’ll Hear:

• The subtle signs in school and uni

• What led to the decision for a diagnosis in adulthood and motherhood

• How Jade navigated the assessment process: gathering school reports, pushing past gender bias, and finding a neuro-affirming psychiatrist

• Life post diagnosis

• A guest perspective on what an ADHD diagnosis really means—and how naming it can transform your relationships, work, and self-understanding

 

Whether you’re supporting someone with ADHD or exploring a diagnosis for yourself, Jade’s candid story offers support. It's a great way to explore what the process and experience of an adult ADHD diagnosis can look like.
