Text me! Tell me something good!When you hear “ADHD,” do you picture a little boy who can’t sit still in class—or maybe an adult who keeps forgetting their keys? That’s the story we’ve been told, but it’s not the whole truth. This week I’m visiting with documentarian and journalist Danielle Elliott, who created the podcast series Climbing the Walls. She’s digging into what ADHD really looks like for women—the messy, complicated, real-life version that doesn’t fit the stereotypes.We talk about everything from the winding road of diagnosis to treatment options that go way beyond just medication, and how shame sneaks in when women hold themselves to impossible standards. Danielle also shares why hormones might be one of the most important missing pieces in ADHD research and how hearing other women’s stories can be such a lifeline.If you’ve ever wondered what’s actually behind the headlines about ADHD—or if you’ve quietly asked yourself, “Could this be me?”—you’re going to want to hear this one. And when you’re done, go check out Danielle’s series Climbing the Walls—it’s packed with powerful stories and perspectives that every woman should hear.If this episode speaks to you, I’d love to hear your story—click the “Tell Me Something Good” button or send me a DM over on Instagram @astoriedtable._________________________________________________________________________________Hosts:Amy Kathleen Smith | Insta @astoriedtable | www.astoriedtable.comEdited by:Ben Hill | http://benhillsound.com/ | https://www.linkedin.com/in/benhillsound/References:Danielle Elliot | danielleelliot.com Understood.org | Climbing The Walls Podcast SeriesHosts: Amy Kathleen Smith | Insta @astoriedtable | www.astoriedtable.com Edited by: Ben Hill* | http://benhillsound.com/ | https://www.linkedin.com/in/benhillsound/ *starting with episode 60
