It would have equipped me with a potent roadmap with which to make my way with more ease, and transform challenges into inner power; what this book beautifully offers. With a thoughtful and concise rendition of the world of ADHD, it’s the book I have wanted in my office’s bookshelf when clients have asked me for recommendations. What this book does that I haven’t come across before is it speaks to the reader with great honesty, in an accessible manner, and deep care for the reader’s well-being, combined with a generous offer of necessary information for the newly diagnosed, and old-timer alike. Even if you don’t know Anais and Melanie personally, you’ll finish the book feeling you’ve met some new friends who understand you!

Critic reviews

"As someone wired in an ADHD way herself, this book is comforting both personally and professionally. In reading Anais and Melanie’s honest and poignant accounts, I reclaimed pieces of my own identity; of having been a child and teenager enclosed in a world that often felt I didn’t belong in. I wish I would have had this book then." (Mariefrance Cote, MA, LMFT)
