Episode description

In this bonus episode, Katie and Sam sit down with Chartered Psychologist Dr Lindsey Roberts to take on some of the biggest myths and misconceptions about ADHD.

From the outdated belief that it only affects hyperactive children, to the harmful idea that it’s caused by poor parenting, they explore where these myths come from, why they persist, and the damage they can do. Lindsey also shares her own late ADHD diagnosis, the life-changing impact of medication, and the urgent need for more compassion, awareness and workplace inclusion.

With warmth, honesty and plenty of straight-talking, this is a myth-busting conversation that challenges stigma, sets the record straight, and reminds us why understanding ADHD matters for everyone.
