Ep 79: ADHD Advocacy with Leanne Maskell

SEND Parenting Podcast

Episode 79
This week we are joined by the ADHD coach and advocate, Leanne Maskell to talk all about her journey to late diagnosis and thriving within ADHD.
Through hearing about Leanne's struggles and journey to a late diagnosis at 25, we illuminate a lot of fascinating, lesser-discussed elements of ADHD like rejection-sensitive dysphoria, ADHD in girls, and the genuine mortal danger of late diagnosis.
Through her work in researching, writing, and educating about ADHD, Leanne shares with us how she has learnt to love and appreciate the true strengths of ADHD, and how it can lead to an authentic and individual life. She also shares practical advice in how to support and coach our ADHD children, and dealing with ADHD when combined with screens and the internet.
This episode promises a wealth of knowledge, empathy, and actionable steps for anyone affected by ADHD and is a must-listen for anyone with a child with ADHD.
