Customer Reviews
This series started a chain events that are currently improving my life tenfold
I would highly, HIGHLY recommend this series to ANYONE who has ADHD. There’s a whole world of information I did not know exists. I can relate so much to Peter and the guest speakers he brings on bring their weight in gold. I would like to reference the first episode as being the most life altering for me. Now that I know about Dr. Hallowell and his books I’ve been searching countlessly for more information on the subject and am excited overtime a new episode comes out. Peter if you’re reading this, do not stop this podcast, it is literally changing my life the more I listen. There’s so much that can be an advantage to ADHD and I’ve found myself to be a success story of that but never knowing the reason, I just always knew I was a bit different. Thanks again, hope to be on the show in the future :)
Great show!
Just listened to the interview with Emily Anhalt, Psy.D. and loved it! Such a great host and really interesting and insightful guests.
Great positive take aways!
This interview with Emily was very uplifting to listen to. I like that she found ways to make her ADD work for her without medication but then also emphasized that sometimes meds are needed and it is ok.
