Evie and Julian to delve deep into the complexities of ADHD. They discuss common myths, personal experiences, and practical advice for managing ADHD symptoms. Evie shares her journey of creating a YouTube channel focused on ADHD and productivity, and they explore the nuances of attentional dysregulation, the impact of societal expectations, and coping strategies. Join them for an insightful conversation aimed at fostering understanding and compassion for those with ADHD.
Evie somehow managed to live in 5 countries and yet spent 10 years in Academia. She has a psychology degree, a bit over 3 years of coaching experience, and was diagnosed with ADHD.
