Team Women & ADHD: A look back, a look a...

Katy Weber
About this episode

Episode 200 with Katy and Team Women & ADHD.


“Before any of us knew we had ADHD, we were all asking the same frustrated question: ‘What’s wrong with me??’”


Episode 200! 🎉 In this special milestone episode, I’m taking a moment to reflect on what I’ve learned after nearly five years of hosting this podcast and talking with hundreds of brilliant women and adults socialized as girls with ADHD. 


I share 10 of the most common themes I’ve observed over the years — from misdiagnosis and executive dysfunction to the healing power of community and the growing recognition that ADHD in women rarely looks the way it’s “supposed to.”


Then I’m joined by a few of the incredible coaches who make up Team Women & ADHD — Emily, Taucha, and Lindsey — for a heartfelt and insightful conversation about what brought each of them to this work and why coaching can be so transformational for neurodivergent women.


Together, we talk about shame, support, mindset, and what it really means to build a life that works with your brain, not against it.


Whether you’ve been here since Episode 1 or this is your first time tuning in — thank you. I’m so glad we’re taking this journey together!
