Getting an ADHD diagnosis later in life can be overwhelming—but it can also be life-changing. In this week’s episode I’m joined by Dave from the Wise Squirrels community. Diagnosed with ADHD as an adult, Dave shares how finally having a name for his neurodivergence brought clarity, healing, and a renewed sense of self.
Whether you’re a neurodivergent adult trying to make sense of your past, or you’re a parent raising an ADHD child and wondering what their future could look like—this conversation is full of encouragement, laughter, and insight. Dave opens up about the emotional weight of living undiagnosed, and how receiving a diagnosis gave him the language to understand his experiences and reframe the way he sees himself. We talk about the mindset shifts that come with understanding your brain, the grief and relief that often follow a diagnosis, and how embracing his ADHD has helped him thrive as an entrepreneur and creative thinker.
If you’ve ever wondered whether it’s “too late” to understand yourself, this episode will remind you that self-awareness has no expiration date. And if you’re parenting a neurodivergent child, Dave’s story offers a glimpse into what’s possible when we recognize neurodiversity not just as something to manage—but as something that can fuel purpose, connection, and joy.
👉 If you or your child has ADHD, or you’re part of the neurodivergent community seeking connection and encouragement—this one’s for you.
Hit play and get ready for a real, refreshing conversation about embracing who you are, at any stage of life.
