In this episode, the conversation centers around the unique challenges that women with ADHD and other neurodivergent traits may face when moving through divorce and major relationship changes. Leanne Gawley, founder of The ADHD Advantage, joins the podcast to share her personal experiences as a late-diagnosed adult with ADHD and how this discovery reshaped her approach to both her personal and professional life.
Leanne discusses how her own journey, sparked by advocating for her son and later recognizing similar patterns in herself and her husband, highlighted the often-missed ways ADHD presents in women, particularly the internalized struggles and strong feelings of self-blame.
Mardi and Leanne move the discussion into the practical realities of navigating stressful life events for neurodivergent individuals, particularly when organization, deadlines, and overwhelming administrative tasks become unavoidable. Leanne offers supportive strategies, including breaking tasks into manageable steps, celebrating small achievements, and designing routines that honor rather than fight against how her brain works. She also speaks to the importance of having professionals who are understanding and flexible, especially for clients whose thought processes and needs may not fit standard expectations.
