The gender gap reaches beyond the workplace: it also impacts medical diagnoses! While 13% of boys are diagnosed with ADHD, only 4.2% of girls are, and it’s not because girls don’t have it: it’s because we are misdiagnosed! To make matters worse, the older we get, the harder it is for medical professionals to diagnose and treat us properly. Often the only time a medical professional will notice it is if we have children who are diagnosed. By then, you’re used to living in the chaos of your home and brain!

Beneficial for any martial arts enthusiast
As an avid Brazilian jiu-jitsu practitioner, I was able to truly appreciate this audiobook. The chapter I got the most out of was the chapter covering Attacks From Multiple Assailants where I learned not only how to defend myself from more than one attacker, I also learned how to effectively attack them. To master this technique, as I learned for this audiobook, you will have to diligently practice three-man drills and even semi free sparring. Regardless of your martial arts discipline, this audiobook will teach you a great deal about Karate.

Learned a lot!
This book starts with a history of karate, which I found very interesting. I think it's really cool that it started out as an ancient war fighting style. With the invention of modern weapons, that style of fighting was no longer needed, but I love that it's still practiced as a way to remember and pay homage to Japanese heritage. And it's also good for building children's strength and confidence.
