Do you often find it difficult to voice your thoughts and feelings due to attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)? Have you ever had to conquer your fear of speaking when dealing with ADHD? In this episode, Lori Jewett shares how you can overcome the fear of public speaking and ADHD to have a clear and concise message.
Lori is a youth leader, social media and event coordinator at Big Jackson church, a co-host, All About The Benefits podcast host, and a soon-to-be author. Lori is also a wife, a mom, an avid runner, and an ADHD speaker.
What is really intriguing about Lori is that despite having ADHD, being exempted from speech class in high school, and failing in public speaking at college, this has not prevented her from becoming a speaker and getting her message out there to change the world, and you can do it too.
