  • Team Women & ADHD: A look back, a look ahead
    Jul 7 2025

    Episode 200 with Katy and Team Women & ADHD.


    “Before any of us knew we had ADHD, we were all asking the same frustrated question: ‘What’s wrong with me??’”


    Episode 200! 🎉 In this special milestone episode, I’m taking a moment to reflect on what I’ve learned after nearly five years of hosting this podcast and talking with hundreds of brilliant women and adults socialized as girls with ADHD.


    I share 10 of the most common themes I’ve observed over the years — from misdiagnosis and executive dysfunction to the healing power of community and the growing recognition that ADHD in women rarely looks the way it’s “supposed to.”


    Then I’m joined by a few of the incredible coaches who make up Team Women & ADHD — Emily, Taucha, and Lindsey — for a heartfelt and insightful conversation about what brought each of them to this work and why coaching can be so transformational for neurodivergent women.


    Together, we talk about shame, support, mindset, and what it really means to build a life that works with your brain, not against it.


    Whether you’ve been here since Episode 1 or this is your first time tuning in — thank you. I’m so glad we’re taking this journey together!

  • Shannan Palma: Easing neurodivergent mental load with AI
    Jun 2 2025

    Episode 199 with Shannan Palma.


    “Sometimes I know exactly what to do — but I just can’t make my body do it. And then comes the shame spiral, the anger, the anxiety.”


    Shannan is the founder and CEO of ITI Assistive Technologies and co-leader of the Autistic Self-Reliance Support Network (ASR). Shannan is autistic and has ADHD, and she’s building the kinds of tools she wished had existed when she was struggling most. Prior to her dual diagnosis, Shannan was a professor who left academia due to severe burnout. After her diagnosis, she started looking for resources and support, but soon recognized a huge gap in support for autistic and ADHD adults — especially when it came to executive functioning and decision-making.


    In this episode, Shannan and I discuss:


    • Shannan’s path from academia to diagnosis and advocacy
    • Her AI-powered decision support app Decide, designed specifically for neurodivergent brains by a team of autistic and ADHD developers
    • How AI tools can support the mental load of neurodivergent life
    • The concept of “bottom-up” processing in neurodivergent brains
    • The urgent need for adult-focused research and how the tojisha-kenkyu method of self-directed research can be used among autistic adults.

  • Raquel Devillé: Regulating our neurodivergent nervous systems
    May 5 2025

    Episode 198 with Raquel Devillé.


    “The idea of just sitting still to meditate was always terrifying. I need movement — something active — otherwise I can’t calm down.”


    Raquel is a therapist, yoga teacher, and the author of It’s Not Your Period! Beyond Moods and Myths: Understanding Unexplainable Emotions and the Hidden Roots of Pain, Stress, and Anxiety. Originally from Portugal and now based in Belgium, Raquel was diagnosed with ADHD and autism in adulthood after recognizing the signs through her children’s experiences.


    Drawing from her personal journey and professional training, Raquel developed the EnCorps Method — a body-centered, practical framework designed to help neurodivergent individuals manage sensory overwhelm, chronic stress, and emotional dysregulation. Her work offers a refreshing, empowering path to self-acceptance and nervous system regulation.


    In this episode, Raquel and I discuss:


    • The connections between chronic stress, masking, sensory overwhelm, and chronic pain
    • How TRE (Tension & Trauma Release Exercises) helps discharge stress stored in the body
    • Why stillness-based meditation often doesn’t work for ADHDers — and what does
    • Practical ways to weave body-based practices like TRE and somatic healing into daily life
    • Highlights from her EnCorps Method, including embracing sensations, nurturing the body, and stabilizing the nervous system over time


    Whether you're newly diagnosed or deep into your neurodivergence journey, Raquel’s approach offers some fascinating and tangible strategies for stabilizing the nervous system over time

Amazing podcast! So glad I stumbled on this

As someone diagnosed later (30s) I find this podcast so validating and relatable. Thank you Katy for starting this!

Helps me understand myself

I have been binge-listening to this series for the past month and seeing parts of myself reflected in all of the interviews. I think I have already spent most of my life feeling my way toward hacks that make me more functional in various situations, and I have always been fairly lucky in naturally getting the structure I need at school and at work, but I love having this new lens to work with. It makes the process of “getting better at life” conscious rather than unconscious, and so much faster and more effective! What a gift. Thanks for this contribution.

Amazing!

This podcast gives me AH HA moments every single episode. I was diagnosed last year at age 53 and so much makes sense now. I'm grieving what could have been, but Katie and her guests help me refocus on what STILL can be!

Thank you!

I've been struggling lately more than ever before. With a diagnosis 6 years ago I am still learning what it is to have adhd. The medication saved my life. I really needed to hear validation though. I needed to know someone else out there can help me navigate life. I am literally crying right now because it's such a relief to have found your podcast! Thank you!

I have never had more clarify!

I accidentally stumbled on this podcast in audible and I'm so grateful I did. I have never felt more validated and understood. I truly feel less "crazy" when I hear I'm really not alone.
Thank you so much for making this because I'm so she it helps so many others!
