It was a slap in the face getting diagnosed with ADHD in my mid-30s.

It was a sucker punch to learn - from Google - how hormones relate to ADHD at nearly 40.

During COVID lockdown, I became acutely aware of our hormones' relationship with ADHD after my period started getting super wonky (it had been as predictable as a Timex before). This led me on an incredibly frustrating journey ... and I'll definitely tell you the full story someday once I get some resolution. But the bottom line is we aren't talking enough about ADHD and hormones. 

Why Am I Doing This?
Since my epiphany/hormonal crisis, I have refocused my podcast entirely on ADHD and hormones. I'm interviewing patients, I'm interviewing experts. I wouldn't be surprised if this ends in an intricate web of index cards and yarn thumb-tacked to my office walls.

By talking about it, I hope to save other women from having to find out the hard way. (Also, it's just super interesting when it isn't frustrating AF.)

Why Support The Podcast?
Your support helps amplify my efforts so that estrogen and ADHD is no longer a fringe topic among our community but an absolute staple. I have a tons of ideas on getting this information out there, and the more support I get the farther it can travel.

From production help to software fees, there are basic expenses that patrons can help cover. If I got enough help, I could even do this as a full-time job someday. Imagine the possibilities if there was somebody out there who's full-time job was to get the word out about this?

If that's not reason enough to become a patron, you also can access my podcast archives (pre-hormonal talk) and/or join the super casual accountability group, which has just enough structure to work but not so much that it's a drag.
