So many of our Motherkind community are being diagnosed with ADHD, wondering if they have ADHD or may be curious about it. I asked Dr Samantha Hiew, a leading voice and expert on ADHD for women, who was diagnosed herself aged 40 right after the birth of her second child.
We talk about:
Why there is a huge rise in ADHD diagnoses in women
What are the characteristics of ADHD for women
How does ADHD intersect with Motherhood
But most importantly… I ask her whether it’s neurodivergence or the stress of carrying the mental load of motherhood.
