In today’s episode, I sit down with Jeannie, the CEO and Founder of ADHD Wise UK, @adhdwiseuk a wonderful organization that is making a real difference in the lives of individuals, families, and schools navigating the complexities of ADHD. Jeannie brings a wealth of knowledge and a deeply personal perspective to the conversation, and I’m so excited to share her insights with you.
We dive into her own experiences in school, where she faced the challenges of ADHD firsthand, and discuss how that journey shaped her passion for helping others understand the condition beyond just the clinical diagnosis. We explore the importance of recognizing ADHD as not just a set of symptoms but a unique life experience—one that affects individuals in profound ways, influencing everything from learning to self-esteem to relationships.
Jeannie shares her invaluable expertise on how we can better support students with ADHD, creating environments that foster understanding, compassion, and growth. Her approach is both thoughtful and empowering, and it’s clear that she’s deeply committed to helping those affected by ADHD see their strengths, not just their struggles.
Whether you’re a parent, educator, or someone navigating ADHD yourself, this episode is filled with practical insights, real-world wisdom, and a reminder that there’s so much more to the ADHD experience than what meets the eye.
