đź§  Smart but Struggling? The Truth About ADHD in Women with Tracy Otsuka

• Jeannine Deramo • Season 1 • Episode 33

What if the chaos in your head isn’t a character flaw — but a clue?

In this candid conversation with Otsuka, certified ADHD coach and author of ADHD for Smart Ass Women, we explore how so many bright, high-achieving women go undiagnosed for decades and what happens when they finally understand how their brains actually work.

🔑 WHAT WE COVER

✔️Why ADHD in women often hides beneath perfectionism and people-pleasing
✔️The connection between hormones, anxiety, and working memory
✔️How to tell the difference between “disorganized” and neurodivergent
✔️What changes when you stop forcing yourself to think like everyone else
✔️How to challenge the status quo and build a life that fits your brain

👉 THIS WEEK’S ACTION STEP
Notice one area where you keep trying to do it “the right way.” Ask yourself: "What if my brain’s way is the right way?" Try one small shift that honors your natural rhythm instead of fighting it.
