Adult ADHD Diagnosis in Women: A Sister Conversation About Motherhood & Identity

In this episode, I’m sitting down with my youngest sister for an honest, laughter-filled conversation about growing up seven years apart and how our relationship has evolved over time. We talk about who we were as kids, how our personalities showed up early, and what it’s been like reconnecting as adults in completely different life seasons.She shares what motherhood to three boys has taught her, how she recently found her place working in a school, and what it’s meant to step into a career that feels aligned. We also talk openly about her ADHD diagnosis as an adult — how it reframed her childhood, motherhood, and sense of self in ways she didn’t expect.This episode is about sisterhood, identity shifts, late realizations, and the freedom that can come from finally understanding yourself more clearly. If you’ve ever felt “behind,” misunderstood, or like you were figuring things out later than everyone else — this conversation is for you.As always, this podcast is intended for educational andinformational purposes only.
