Episode description

Today we’re launching our brand new ‘101 Series’ where each episode we’ll be taking a deep dive into causes, treatments and potential superpowers for some of the most common mental disorders on the planet.

To start off, Steve and I explore the world of ADHD (Attention Deficit Disorder), including:

  • Some of the most famous/successful people throughout history with ADHD

  • The difference between inattention and hyperactivity

  • Social and relational drawbacks of the disorder beyond the classroom/workplace

  • What’s going on in the brain of somebody who has ADHD

  • And why people with ADHD have the ability to hyperfocus (including how you can tap into that!)


Really hope you enjoy and be sure to subscribe on your favourite podcast platform to be notified when we drop part two next week.
