Listen "Being Understood with Keltie McLaren"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode of Rebelling, I’m joined by certified ADHD coach Keltie McLaren, who works with values-driven independent creatives to help them stop fighting their brains and start building systems that actually work for them.We talk about what it means to understand ourselves, others, and the spaces between us. We talk about trust, how understanding isn’t a destination, but something we practice: through vulnerability, curiosity, and reflection, rather than control, performance, or self-criticism. The heart of this conversation is when we recognize that real understanding is relational, not performative. It doesn’t come from perfect clarity or knowing what someone else wants you to say, but from being seen as you are, even in discomfort or uncertainty. We change understanding from a private self-improvement project into something connective, dynamic, and vulnerable. Understanding isn’t all about achieving clarity. It’s about being in the ongoing conversation with ourselves, with others, and with difference. Because you don’t connect by making people understand you. You connect by letting yourself be understood.Where to find Keltie:newsletter: adhdembraced.substack.comweb: adhd-embraced.cominstagram: @adhd.embracedlinkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/keltie/
