“Is this an ADHD thing?”
This question comes up a lot!
It’s hard to say because there is a wide spectrum on how ADHD symptoms present in your day to day activities. At the same time, there is so much value in knowing you aren’t the only one struggling with something.
In today’s episode, I’m sharing the themes that I see in the symptoms of ADHD in women that I work with so that you can feel comfortable in knowing how ADHD shows up in women in real life.
Included in this episode is a checklist of ADHD symptoms that you can fill out and take with you to your doctor appointment, so you can feel confident and prepared to ask about an ADHD diagnosis.
This list is particularly helpful for women who don’t present the typical ADHD symptoms, so if you’re curious about inattentive ADHD or how successful, high-achieving women with graduate degrees have ADHD, this episode is for you!
This episode is part of our Best Of Series, and originally aired in September 2022 as episode 158.

Wish you could get a sneak peek before joining? You can!
You’re invited to Successful Mama Meetup’s very first Open House!
Join us on July 26, 2023 for either of our meetups, and meet the other moms, see who you’d hang out with at the retreat, so you know we’re the kinda people you wanna hang out with before you jump in. (hint, we’re pretty amazing IMHO.)
No charge, no pressure. Just come hang out at one or both of the events!
Let me know you wanna come right here and I’ll send you the zoom link.
And since it's on Zoom, everyone can come no matter what part of the world you live in. And for our mamas in Asia and Australia, the second meetup is on Thursday, July 27th for you.
If you’re listening to this episode after July and want to come to the next Open House, join the waitlist, and I’ll let you know next time I host one!
