Jeremy's Journey: ADHD as an adult

Hi I’m Krutika, and today’s conversation is with Jeremy.

Have you ever stopped to think just how incredible our brains are? They’re the command centre for everything we do and the reason we are who we are.

Each brain is so wonderfully unique, yet society and constructs of everyday life expect us to do things in a way that is, well…neurotypical!

Jeremy, asks a powerful question: ‘What is normal, anyway?’

He was diagnosed with ADHD as an adult in 2021, finally getting the validation that explained so much about how his brain works. Instead of fighting against it, he’s learned to embrace ADHD as his superpower.

I’m so inspired by Jeremy’s acceptance, self-awareness, and resilience. This conversation opened my eyes in so many ways, and I think it just might do the same for you.
