Standing up for ADHD with Kat Brown

November 9, 2026 · 28 min

Show notes

It can be really destabilising when someone you know questions or even dismisses your ADHD.

Aside from being awkward and frustrating, those conversations can cause major self doubt when you've been trying so hard to manage life.

In this episode, Katie and Sam speak to Kat Brown, author of It’s Not a Bloody Trend: Understanding Life as an ADHD Adult, about how to tackle those awkward conversations head on, without being confrontational (well, maybe a bit).

Kat also talks about being diagnosed with ADHD as an adult and how she had to learn acceptance after a lifetime of feeling different.

This is a really encouraging episode for anyone newly diagnosed or anyone starting to grow weary of the constant debates around ADHD.
