Katherine Ellison: Learning from ADHD mistakes

Episode 58 with Katherine Ellison

"I try to talk openly about my mistakes and humiliating moments in order to normalize them and make them less shameful."

Katherine is a Pultizer prize-winning journalist, author and public speaker. 

She's written or co-written several books about ADHD, and is a regular contributor to ADDitude magazine. She also recently gave a Ted Talk on the gifts of having ADHD during a pandemic.

Her most recent book is "Mothers & Murders: A True Story of Love, Lies, Obsession ...And Second Chances," a memoir about a major mistake she made as a young reporter and how she recovered and came back stronger than ever.
