Forget the outdated picture of ADHD as hyper little boys who can’t sit still. In this episode, Shannon sits down with ADHD coach Jessica Covington to explore what it really looks like—especially for women navigating midlife, hormones, and the hidden shame that so often comes with a “fancy brain.”
Jessica shares how her son’s diagnosis led to her own, why most ADHD support gets the order of healing backwards, and the bottom-up, body-first approach she’s used to help women turn frustration into self-compassion.
Inside the Episode:
- Why thinking of ADHD as a “brain style” instead of a disorder changes everything
- The 4 foundational pillars Jessica uses to help women work with their minds, not against them
- How movement can literally “light up” the brain and unlock focus
- The role of nutrition, blood sugar stability, and magnesium in ADHD support
- Practical tips for memory, focus, and task management that actually work in real life
- The shame cycle women with ADHD face—and how to break it for good
If you’ve ever wondered whether you might have ADHD, felt like you’re “falling apart” in midlife, or just want tools that go beyond planners and to-do lists, this conversation will open your eyes to a more compassionate—and effective—way forward.
