Feisty: Reclaiming ADHD Female Identity

What happens when women with ADHD get called “bossy,” “too blunt,” “difficult,” or “too much”? In this episode of Backpacking Through ADHD, host Tera Greenwood flips the script on the word feisty. From family stories to workplace moments, Tera explores how the very traits often criticized in ADHD women—intensity, passion, boldness—are actually strengths. This episode is about reclaiming labels, setting boundaries, and refusing to shrink into someone else’s version of “acceptable.” Tune in to hear how “feisty” becomes a force: unapologetic, empowering, and deeply tied to the ADHD female experience.
