S5 E23 - ADHD Untangled Rewind - ADHD and Hormones with Dr James Brown

In today's ADHD Rewind I'm re-Introducing our extraordinary guest, a figure I've eagerly awaited on this podcast since it began—a true hero in my eyes.Ladies and gentlemen, please join us in welcoming the remarkable Professor James Brown!Not only is Professor James Brown one of the esteemed hosts of the ADHD Adults podcast, but he also wears the hat of a charity owner and is the proud spouse of a previous ADHD Untangled guest, the incredible Mrs. ADHD.With over two decades of dedicated research into the intricate world of hormones, James is a true authority on the subject. Given some recent personal challenges I've faced and the shared struggles of our friends and clients, it was imperative that we tapped into his wealth of knowledge. Engaging in a conversation about hormones was genuinely enlightening, and James's passion for the topic was evident throughout our discussion.A profound revelation for me was discovering that hormones play a pivotal role in virtually every aspect of our lives. This episode offered me reassurance in understanding that the ebb and flow of emotions and experiences, whether throughout the month or our life journey, is perfectly normal. It's not merely us feeling like we're on an emotional rollercoaster; hormones are at the heart of this intricate process.Get the tissues out as this  episode is a tear jerker as James shares honestly and openly  about his own struggles and strengths with ADHD,  sharing his passion and determination for helping others through his podcast. It was an absolute honour and pleasure to interview James and was extremely comforting to know that YES hormones affect every aspect of your life and solidifies the notion that it is OK not to feel OK sometimes!I really hope that you enjoy this one and fall in love with the absolutely amazing Professor James Brown! Podcast Website: Visit us at theadhdadults.uk Social Media: Follow us @theadhdadults Charity Website: Explore more about our charity at adhdadult.uk Charity's Social Media: Connect with us @adhdadultuk Let's get Untangled and show the world what we are made of! 🧡ADHD COACHING IT’S TIME TO TURN YOUR ADHD STRUGGLES INTO STRENGTHS AND SHOW UP IN THE WAY YOU WERE ALWAYS MEANT TO!

S5 E21 - Untangling ADHD: Medication & Holistic Treatments with Joseph Pack

Is ADHD medication right for me?Do I have to take it every single day?Am I a failure if I decide to stop?These are the questions so many of us quietly carry around — and in this episode, I sit down with Joseph Pack, founder of Drug Free ADHD, to bring them out into the open.Together, we untangle:🧡 The hidden risks of long-term medication — from sleep disruption to chronic illness.🧡 The shame stories around starting, stopping, or changing meds (and why none of it means failure).🧡 Heart rate variability (HRV) as a simple way to see how your body is really coping.🧡 Why “one-size-fits-all” ADHD care is dangerous — and what a personalised approach can look like.🧡 The power of lived experience over textbook answers — and why sometimes, you’ve just got to “make it exist first.”This isn’t about being pro- or anti-medication. It’s about real talk, no judgement, and giving you the knowledge and permission to make informed choices that actually work for your life.Follow Joseph here:✨ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/josephpackcom✨ Website: https://www.drugfreeadhd.com/Let’s get untangled and show the world what we’re made of 🧡ADHD COACHING IT’S TIME TO TURN YOUR ADHD STRUGGLES INTO STRENGTHS AND SHOW UP IN THE WAY YOU WERE ALWAYS MEANT TO!

It’s exactly why I created the ADHD Yoga Foundation Training to support teachers in breaking barriers and building spaces where ADHD and neurodivergent students feel seen, safe, and included.Dianne’s story is a reminder that ADHD brains deserve tools that honour how we experience the world and yoga can be one of the most transformative of those tools.Follow Dianne:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/diannebondyyogaofficialLet's get untangled and show the world what we're made of! 🧡ADHD COACHING IT’S TIME TO TURN YOUR ADHD STRUGGLES INTO STRENGTHS AND SHOW UP IN THE WAY YOU WERE ALWAYS MEANT TO!
