ADHD seems to be more and more common. Today my guest Jennifer Shutts, an ADHD expert shares what it means to be neurodivergent and how ADHD impacts the lives of those who have it.
We talk about:
- What ADHD is and how it affects people
- The two types of ADHD
- 13 executive function challenges that affect people with ADHD
- Whether ADHD has always been around
- The impact of social media on ADHD
- 3 main differences between neurodivergent and neurotypical people

- Tips to help neurodivergent people with task initiation
This conversation was insightful, enlightening and super useful to give me a better understanding of how I can support clients and people I know who are neurodivergent. I hope it’s helpful for you too.
