À propos de cet audio
Jennifer Crichton joins us to explore how ADHD has shaped her successful career in radio and journalism, where constant novelty and deadline-driven tasks perfectly match her neurotype. She shares her late diagnosis journey, triggered by early menopause, and the surprising reaction from her parents who immediately recognised her symptoms from childhood.
• Finding the perfect career fit with ADHD as a fast-paced radio producer and journalist
• Following diagnosis breadcrumbs through others' stories and recognising traits
• Overcoming dismissive medical professionals who initially rejected her concerns
• Discovering the crucial connection between hormonal changes and ADHD symptoms
• Creating a holistic management approach beyond medication including exercise, creative outlets, and sobriety
• Building a relationship with another ADHD partner and the complementary coping strategies they've developed
• Using fidget toys, Lego building, and "sweary word" coloring books to manage mental noise
• Finding the value in late diagnosis as validation rather than seeing it as a missed opportunity
