After a recent conversation about ADHD with a family member, it dawned on me that this subject is not really discussed much in women and is typically considered a disorder in children, particularly boys.  I started looking into ADHD in midlife women, and I was surprised to find that it goes largely undiagnosed in women and girls, as the signs are not as obvious as they are in males.Katy Weber, coach, author and podcaster, took her own diagnosis of adult ADHD to build a platform to support other women, who want to explore and understand who they are through this new lens of ADHD.  She wants clients to lean into their strengths and use them to their advantage to move forward, to identify obstacles, and create strategies to live a more fulfilling and gratifying life. Not only does Katy Weber have a successful coaching business, but she has a very popular podcast called Women and ADHD.In this episode Katy and I discuss:- Her own journey to get to the diagnosis of ADHD- Deciding to do a podcast to help other women with ADHD- The differences between males and females in regard to signs of ADHD and eventual diagnosis- The impact of ADHD in adult women - relationships/work/dealing with everyday tasks- Executive Function and its definition- Medication and self-medicating - the importance of nutrition and movement- Our children with ADHD- What Katy has learned from her podcast guestsRecommended reading:Katy Weber wrote an excellent book on ditching diets and getting back to a whole food philosophy called Worth It: A Journey to Food & Body Freedom: Six Essential Steps to Ditching the Diets & Nourishing Your Body From the Inside OutA Radical Guide for Women with ADHD by Sari Solden MS,  Michelle Frank PsyDThis is the workbook to which Katy refers in the podcast.
