Guest Bio

Simon Arnold

I am the author of The Thirteen-Hour Life Coach, a detailed biography of living with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and having to design my own success strategies because no help was available. I found the strategies to be so useful, I was finding my life was getting better and better. I had to share my new found strategies with everyone. So I launched a podcast of the same name.

In The Thirteen-Hour Life Coach Podcast, I talk with guests about a topic to help people with ADHD (and those that think they have it) to live an amazing life. I am currently on the forth season and already have guests lined up for season five. I have found that as I use my own strategies and learn from my guests, I am constantly refining these ADHD skills, which is now categoried as HFADHD (High Functioning ADHD).

A second book is currently being written, I am fluent in both German and English and believe people with ADHD can really change themselves and their world for the better.

Host Bio

Hi, I’m Ashleigh Tolliver, and this podcast is a road map to Parenting That Kid. As a mother of twins with ADHD symptoms, I know what it means to parent a child who does not fit into the ‘box’ modern society has put children into. My mission is to help other parents of “that kid” feel less alone, more confident and more equipped by asking the tough questions to the professionals, gathering tools and resources and connecting with other moms who are wrestling with the same struggles.

If recording my journey as I seek a clear starting point, community and effort to normalize a life with children who are at times highly emotional, unregulated, unfocused, or the opposite- hyper focused, supports at least one parent, then my time is not wasted. And if it doesn’t, well, there’s documented proof that moms deserve a glass of wine.

Cheers
