ADHD and Work: How to Thrive

Kate Moryoussef
About this episode

On today's ADHD Women's Wellbeing 'Wisdom' we have Leanne Maskell. Leanne is an ADHD coach, author, and activist, having presented to the World Health Organization on improving global access to support for ADHD. 

Previously working in mental health and disability law, Leanne set up ADHD Works to empower as many people as possible to learn how to make ADHD work for them through books, courses, talks, and coaching.

During today's conversation, Kate and Leanne talk about

  • Advocating for adjustments in the workplace
  • Masking ADHD in the workplace
  • Talking about your ADHD diagnosis at work
  • Reasonable diversity adjustments, training and policies in the workplace
  • Corporate neurodiversity
  • Celebrating achievements alongside RSD
  • Knowing our rights within the workplace
  • Burnout and our ADHD brains
  • Advocacy and our sense of social justice

Kate's new four-part on-demand workshop series, Regulating Your ADHD Nervous System, is available here.

Welcome to a recap episode of ADHD Women's Wellbeing Wisdom! Have a look at some of Kate's workshops and free resources here.

Kate Moryoussef is a women’s ADHD Lifestyle and wellbeing coach and EFT practitioner who helps overwhelmed and unfulfilled newly diagnosed ADHD women find more calm, balance, hope, health, compassion, creativity, and clarity.
