Katherine Ellison won a Pulitzer Prize in journalism just four years after being sued for $11 million for a careless reporting mistake. In her conversation with Simon, Katherine opens up about her inattentive symptoms and life before her ADHD diagnosis at 48. Despite her long-undiagnosed symptoms, she fulfilled her dream of being a foreign correspondent, spending 15 years reporting from Asia and Latin America, and is also proud that her two adult children are still speaking to her. In recent years, Katherine has authored and co-authored 12 books, including the outstanding ‘Buzz: A Year of Paying Attention’, which is about parenting her son who also has ADHD. Yet before understanding how her brain works, she thought of herself as ‘flawed’, clumsy, and careless. Having learnt so much about ADHD in order to write that book, she shares a wealth of knowledge and insight in this episode.Katherine Ellison www.facebook.com/katherineellisonofficial www.twitter.com/kathellison  Simon Mundie www.simonmundie.com www.tinyurl.com/youtubesimonmundie www.instagram.com/simonmundie Qbtech www.qbtech.com www.instagram.com/qbtech www.twitter.com/qbtechADHD www.facebook.com  Hosted on Acast.
