Description
Do you have ADHD or are another neurodiverse condition? And are you also an athlete? Or do you work a full time job? And are you also an athlete? Or are you like Katie and do both? Katie Bingle, has run for Great Britain and continued to compete at a high level, whilst also entering the world of full time work. She shares her experience of moving through the cycle of injury and into full time work. She and me both also have ADHD and in this episode we discuss the ways in which ADHD impacts training and mindset, and Katie reflects upon the potential impact ADHD has had on training, eating, and competing. A lot to be learned from this episode, especially if the content resonates with you. As always it is important to note neither of us are medical professionals and only speak based on our own lived experiences. ADHD presents itself differently in all individuals and a range of different conditions and factors can result in the manifestation of certain ADHD symptoms despite ADHD not being the cause. If you feel you really related to some of these experiences check out ADHD UK - Homepage - ADHD UK And consult with your GP about further next steps, as only a qualified psychiatrist can diagnose. ---------------------------------------------- Be sure to follow the podcast @fitterfasterandhappier on Instagram for guest requests, questions, updates, and more. #adhd #femaleathlete #femalerunner #athleteadhd #neurodiversity #workingathlete
