Publisher's summary

Go from chaos to calm: clear the clutter in your mind and create a personal system that works for your unique brain.

The ADHD brain comes with some unique challenges, and until we recognize what they are, they will keep getting in our way. Starting new things, stopping others, concentrating, studying, getting stuff done, paying the bills, and getting on with life just seems so much harder for you than for others. That’s because it actually is, and it is time we faced up to this.

ADHD brains are not wrong, weak, or broken–just different. And because the world is set up for neurotypical people, those with ADHD struggle to fit in with these systems which are not matched to them or their needs at all. It’s like trying to run a PS4 game on an Xbox: It simply doesn’t work.

It’s time to let go of things that are simply not working for you and engage with a way of being that aligns better with your strengths, your needs, and who you really are.

In this supportive and inspirational audiobook, you will discover:

  • The simplest hacks for the most common ADHD stumbling blocks, with methods based on the latest research and neuroscience
  • How to see yourself in a better, more positive light and start rebuilding your self-worth and zest for life
  • Real-life stories, advice, and tips from women who have made their ADHD work for them and not against them
  • The basic must-knows for women with ADHD in dating, love, and friendship for better connections with those who matter
  • The secrets to improving your focus, time management, and other executive functioning skills
  • How to succeed at your job, studies, and in life in general using ADHD strategies that really work
  • The top money tips and tricks to get your impulse spending under control and start growing your savings

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Understanding an ADHD Diagnosis in Females

As a woman with ADHD who did not get her diagnosis until my mid-50s, this book is a breath of fresh air.  With its practical insights, I understand better now why my earlier years were so discouraging, and why I always felt as though I worked ten times harder than anyone else just to make half as much progress.

Ms. Henderson covers a lot of ground and provides a lot of information I hadn't known until I got my diagnosis.  But there is still so much stigma and denial in our society about the truth that females suffer with the challenges of ADHD as much as men.  And in some ways, with the societal "norm" of assuming all women should be able to handle their health, their appearance, their career, their house, their pets, their kids, their husband, and their marriage, etc. etc. etc., the challenges of ADHD on women can take an even bigger toll.

I like the pauses in narration here--they give listeners time to jot down notes, to capture the great advice this book offers.  The interactive elements too, provide the listener moments to pause to consider the lessons taught.

This would be a great resource for any woman who gets an ADHD diagnosis--it would go a long way to smoothing the transition to understanding in a way most recipients of the diagnosis never experience.  It would also be a great gift for friends and/or loved ones who desire to be understanding and supportive.

Empowering and practical!

A game-changer for ADHD warriors! Personally, I have ADHD, the book helps me to empower that difference rather treating it as a shortcomings. Another thing is the practical hacks and real stories make it relatable and motivating. The tips on relationships, career, and finances make it a well-rounded guide for personal transformation. 100% I recommend this book!

Thank goodness I found this book.

As a woman I excel at multitasking. However, I found myself getting less done on a regular basis and after doing some research, I realized my multitasking was ADHD. This book has been a godsend. Finally someone understands me and I realized I’m not alone. Even better, this book gave me actionable steps to help me be more productive and better focused.
