Publisher's summary

The beloved authors of Dirty Laundry break down the harmful stereotypes about people with ADHD to help you stop being your worst fear-leader, start bigging yourself up, and live your best neurodivergent life.

When “ADHD wife” Roxanne Pink and neurotypical husband Richard Pink asked their community of 2.5 million what the biggest ADHD struggle is, the thousands of replies changed everything. As they learned, the real enemy isn’t productivity or focus, but the toxic ADHD core beliefs we’ve internalized.

With candor and kindness, they share personal stories to highlight and reframe the 10 big lies that ADHD people believe about themselves. From “I am lazy” to “Everybody hates me” and “I quit everything I start,” Small Talk will empower ADHDers and those who love them to navigate life with compassion, humor, and hope. Whether you were diagnosed early or are new to the neurospicy community, Small Talk will change your relationship with yourself and others.

Learn how to:

Identify your limiting ADHD beliefs

Break free from neurotypical standards

Support and understand your ADHDers

Adopt a self-kindness mindset

Communicate your needs & boundaries

Celebrate the joys of ADHD

An urgently needed message!!

Thank you Rox and Richard for sharing so much of your stories, experiences, and what you learned to speak to all of us and give voice to what we're experiencing too. Though our stories won't necessarily be exactly like yours, there is so very much that is in common, while still being within the context of unique experience, that this book is an amazing gift for all of us and for our loved ones. THANK YOU for the courage to make this happen precisely when you did, and THANK YOU for being yourselves for us too!! ❤️

Highly recommended for Neurodivergents and the neurotypicals that love them!!!!!

This book is full of helpful information both for neurodivergents (ND) and their loved ones that want to support them, as well as plenty of stories of the struggles of neurodivergence which is relatable for the NDs and hopefully revealing new info for the Neurotypical loved ones of NDs.

They team up really well to read this book in such a “conversation with friends sitting on the couch” type of manner that was so inviting for me. I already have been watching them on their social medias and loved their content from there first.

I can see this book changing the lives of NDs, and being extremely beneficial.

Bonus? For me, their accents , especially Rox’s are lovely to my American ears. Additionally, her music is so purely punk like I grew up with, she is extremely talented and I love all of it I’ve heard.

Catalyst for Actual Joy

I’ve been SO productive at work today after listening to this and Dirty Laundry (twice or maybe thrice)…. I’ve also shared this with neurodivergent work friends (there are many of us in social services). Watching the glimmer of recognition as it registers for others is one of the core joys of my life, so thank you very dearly for creating these moments of connection and joy. Listening to your book feels like a major shift toward loving kindness, and I’m already seeing the ripple effects.

thank you <3

this audible made me cry the entire time lol but as a 30 yr old first time mom who recently been diagnosed with ADHD this means a lot that you shared your story. your book is what I needed, not how to be more productive. is had put an insight about myself, my marriage problems, and showed me a path I'm looking forward to exploring. one that one day I might need to show a love one or even my son. you guys are amazing and I'm glad I came across your tik too page that lead me here. so happy you didn't give up and that you changed the direction of the book not saying the first one wouldn't have been just as amazing, you have saved me.

Another ADHD Wife

Roxanne Pink is like the British mirror of me. I have struggled with all these lies and am listening to it again, because I want to be able to help my ADHD son not grow up to believe these things the way I did. Diagnosis came around 40 in a sudden reaction to my son being diagnosed and everything made sense. i just bought Dirty Laundry too. I am so glad to have found my people and know Im not just not trying hard enough or the worst person in the world.
