Why ADHD Isn’t Actually Rising (We’re Just Finally Seeing It)
from You Can Do It: The Podcast for Neurodivergent Adults, Deep Creatives, and Out-of-the-Box Thinkers · host Kimberly Frey
In this episode, I explore the growing curiosity around the rise in ADHD diagnoses, especially among adults and women. Using the powerful metaphor of Galileo’s stars, I reframe the conversation: it’s not that ADHD is suddenly more common; it’s that we’ve finally developed the tools, language, and awareness to recognize it. From shifts in pediatric care and education to the impact of social media and self-discovery, I unpack why so many are now finding clarity and connection through diagnosis. I also share personal insights from my work as a coach and educator, highlighting the relief and empowerment that come from understanding how differently wired brains truly work.Are you an adult newly diagnosed with ADHD or autism? Or someone who is stuck in a mid-career crisis, feeling overwhelmed, or as if your life is out of balance? Let’s take the first step towards clarity together.
