    It's Neuro-Spicy Month here at Rethink Your Rules!

    Today, Jenny gave a presentation about ADHD at a neurodiversity focused CME. So, we're revisiting some prior RYR episodes about ADHD. (Especially since they are the most downloaded episodes ever!)

    This week, we're taking a deep dive into the reasons many women - especially smart women - don’t find out they have ADHD until their 40’s. (If ever.)

    You’ll learn:
    • Common misconceptions about ADHD in general
    • How adhd presents in females vs males
    • How girls “mask” their ADHD
    • The effect of hormones on ADHD

    And more!

    If you’ve been curious why so many people seem to be getting diagnosed with ADHD lately, or wondered whether you might have it yourself, this episode is a great place to start.
