Allow Me To Interrupt with Dr. Gilly Kahn: ADHD, Women and the Power of Support

In this powerful conversation, clinical psychologist and author Dr. Gilly Kahn joins us to talk about the often-misunderstood world of ADHD in women. Too often, ADHD is defined through the lens of restless little boys, which leaves girls and women misdiagnosed, mislabeled, and misunderstood.

Dr. Kahn opens up about the emotional dysregulation so many women live with, the shame and “too muchness” they’re told to carry, and how community and compassion can shift the story. We explore why the diagnostic criteria still fails women, what it really feels like to parent while managing ADHD (in yourself or your kids), and why connection and validation matter just as much as tools and strategies.

This isn’t a dry, clinical take...it’s honest, hopeful, and deeply human. You’ll walk away with practical insights, a new lens for understanding ADHD, and permission to stop blaming yourself for systems that were never built with women in mind.
