Episode 1: Forging Connections

Welcome to the first episode of the ClayeDHD Podcast! This is a podcast where I talk about ADHD hyperfixations, some history and how you might discover this hyperfocus for yourself! This week is the mesmerizing dance of hammer and anvil, the transformative power of heated metal, and the spectacular (and sometimes fiery!) blunders that come with it. From ancient blades to modern-day sculpture, join us as we melt, mold, and marvel at the alchemy of turning raw metal into art. Plus, stick around for a teaser of next week's fantastical journey! 🔥🔨🌟
