Ellie Middleton on ADHD in Women
Listen now
Description
This is the podcast where each week we'll meet a guest who’ll help us pay attention to something we should know about, but maybe don’t.    This week we're talking about ADHD in women; how the condition can present differently than people often expect, the privilege of obtaining a diagnosis, and the light bulb moment that finding your community can bring. Ellie Middleton is a writer, activist and content creator. After being diagnosed with ADHD as well as autism at the age of 24, she went on to found the online community (un)masked, which she describes as a safe space offering resources, friends and support to people with autism, ADHD and other neurodivergent conditions. She is the inspiration behind LinkedIn's 'I Am Professional Campaign, and is working hard to break down stereotypes about neurodivergent women.
