Description:

This episode is a bit different, Moira didn’t come up with any of it. She does have a few comments here and there but instead she is sharing Canada’s Centre for ADHD Advocacy paper calling for better understanding, diagnosis, treatment and support of women and girls with ADHD. If you ever wanted one episode or document to share with someone, a loved one, a medical professional, anyone about how and why Women and Girls with ADHD deserve better this is it.
 
Welcome to the ADHD Friendly Lifestyle Podcast, for those of us with ADHD, who have had enough of trying harder and want to live a more comfortable, healthy, and happy life with less frustration and overwhelm. It’s time to get rid of guilt and shame–around having ADHD, our needs, and challenges through stories, knowledge, and humor to speak up about the experience of women, moms, and being late diagnosed with ADHD. 
 
We can build acceptance and growing our self-compassion over time, to help us take care of ourselves, ask for help when we need it, and be comfortable with who we are. Join me, Moira Maybin, as I share knowledge about ADHD to make your life easier, and what choices you have to make your tomorrow a more ADHD Friendly day.
