BONUS: University Life with ADHD
Episode description
In this bonus episode, Katie and Sam reflect on their conversation with ADHD coach Stephanie Camilleri and open up about their own university experiences- from last-minute essays and hyperfocus marathons to the struggles of living away from home for the first time.
They share how undiagnosed ADHD shaped their student years, why disappointment and overwhelm hit so hard, and the ways medication, planning and scaffolding can make all the difference. The discussion also turns to parenting- how much to help, when to step back, and why language and communication matter so much when supporting a student with ADHD.
With honesty, warmth and plenty of lived experience, this is a thoughtful follow-up to Stephanie’s episode and a reminder that while university can be tough for ADHD students, there are ways to navigate the wobbles and find your footing.
