In this new episode I dive deep into the world of ADHD with Selena Thomson, a late-diagnosed mum, and lawyer… who shares her unfiltered journey from anxiety and depression to unshakable self-acceptance.

Selena shares her experiences, from the "fuzzy vision" before medication to the crucial realisation that pills alone couldn't erase a lifetime of suppressed identity. 

Discover why ADHD is actually "unregulated attention", and how embracing flexibility in work and education is key to unlocking the potential within neurodivergent minds.

This episode is a raw look at motherhood with ADHD, battling rejection sensitivity, and the power of brutal authenticity in building a life surrounded by your true tribe.

Selena's story is a testament to why women, especially, should "delusionally love themselves" and recognise the "beauty in the chaos".
