Send us Fan Mail#37 - ADHD in our Workplace, in our Kids, and US - with Elizabeth BakerToday’s conversation is real and raw and I couldn’t be more thankful for the vulnerability and honest conversation. My guest today is the wonderful Elizabeth Baker. She is a friend that I met through a mastermind group I belong to. Elizabeth is married with 5 kiddos with ages ranging from 12 to 4! Woah! She’s busy! She grew up on the Canadian prairie in a town of 300 people. She earned a bachelor’s degree from BYU -Idaho in Social Studies Education.She was diagnosed with ADHD at the age of 36 and has been trying to share her story ever since in hopes she can help others on their own journey. Elizabeth is very passionate about speaking out in favor of being curious about ADHD. Today we dive in on these topics: The shame of feeling like there is constantly “something wrong with us” What neurodivergent means How to channel those “why can’t I focus” thoughts Behaviors and character traits of someone who has ADHD Signs that someone on your work team may be struggling with ADHD Understanding how ADHD shows up for and in our kids.ADHD is a real struggle for a lot of working women in the world right now and is still underdiagnosed. In 2018, the CDC reported an increase of 344% in women seeking medication for ADHD, while Google searches in the U.S. related to ADHD in women more than doubled between March 2021 and March 2022. The workplace is where many women with ADHD struggle the most, whether it’s attempting to work the same way as their neurotypical team members, navigating the social scene, living up to expectations, or, notably, finding the confidence to ask for help - all while trying to show up positively for their spouses and children. Many women are trying to mask their symptoms or blame themselves in order to conform with, which we know is so not healthy!Today’s conversation is all about trying to help you if you struggle with ADHD. Both Elizabeth and I get real about how this has affected our own lives and how we think we and you…. are fabulous for it!Connect with Elizabeth here:Website: https://meandmyadhd.today/Email: [email protected]: https://instagram.com/liz.momlifetodayWant to learn more about the Ladies Kickin’ Ass Community?This episode is also available on VIDEO!
