In this episode, we dive deep into why so many high-performing women with ADHD go under-diagnosed for years—and why the common approaches to managing ADHD often fall short. If you’ve ever felt like you’ve tried everything—whether it’s the medical route with medication and therapy, or the spiritual route with Human Design and energy work—only to still feel stuck, this episode is for you.

We’ll explore:

• Why women are so often missed in the ADHD diagnosis process and how many of us develop coping strategies that eventually break down.
• Why relying solely on the medical model doesn’t address the whole picture, and how it overlooks the deeper energetic and spiritual needs we have as women.
• How swinging all the way to the spiritual approach can leave you feeling more burned out, impulsive, and out of alignment than before.
• And most importantly, how the both/and approach—combining brain-based strategies with Human Design and Gene Keys—can finally help you find the clarity and balance you’ve been searching for.

Join me as I unpack how you can stop choosing between extremes and instead embrace a holistic approach to thrive with ADHD.
