ADHD AF

By: Laura Mears-Reynolds
  • Summary

  • Late diagnosed ADHDer turned Activist Laura Mears-Reynolds invites you aboard the late ADHD diagnosis roller coaster! After a lifetime of unknowingly battling a brain disorder and feeling like an alien, I’ve discovered there’s a whole planet of us! YOU ARE NOT ALONE!

    Join me and the Leopard Print Army in ‘unmasking’ and owning our ‘TOO MUCH’-ness! With the help of very special guests, including the likes of: bestselling Authors Clementine Ford & Davinia Taylor, ITV This Morning's Dr Nighat Arif, The ADHD Adults, ADHD Love, Catieosaurus, Life Actuator, BBC Morning Live’s Riyadh Khalaf, Forever Yours Betty, Adulting ADHD and many more!

    Only an expert by my own lived experience which I share with a hope to help others and push for systemic change so that ADHDers can be treated both medically and with the respect they deserve.
    Together we will make change happen! (And we can have a few laughs along the way at the most ADHD things we’ve done!)

    All episodes prior to Oct ‘23 feature & were edited by Dawn Farmer. Laura continues the ‘safari’ solo, as hell hath no fury like a ‘hun’ late diagnosed with ADHD.

  • TITBIT: ADHD Unmasking Hack - Meghann Birks Coaching
    May 7 2024

    Many late discovered ADHD adults find it hard to know where to begin when it comes to ADHD Unmasking. In this micro-episode ADHD Coach Meghann Birks gives us her top tip to help unpick those negative beliefs we've accumulated to help us find our authentic selves.

    I had the pleasure of being interviewed by Meghann on her amazing Podcast: Sisters in Stoke and we've been in semi constant contact ever since. This Canadian LEGEND lives in Melbourne and she's all heart, humour and wisdom. Meghann invites us all to ''f**k around and find out!"
    We go on a little side-quest about internalised mysogyny, beauty standards and body image issues, but somehow Meghann uses her time wizardry to cram her Unmasking knowledge into a short TITBIT episode.
    I look forward to sharing more from Meghann soon!

    TW: Contains swearing and some potentially triggering topics including: Body Image Struggles, Self crticism, internalised misogyny, the patriarchy, beauty standards and unhealthy ideas about weight. But only to highlight the toxicity of all of the above!
    SELF DIAGNOSIS IS VALID AND YOU ARE ENOUGH!
