Notas del episodio
In this powerful episode of Finding Your Pink , renowned artist and designer Helen Steele joins us to explore the vibrant, challenging, and often misunderstood world of ADHD. Helen shares her journey from a childhood of getting in trouble and doing laps in the garden to burn off energy, to discovering how doodling became a lifeline—eventually leading to a thriving creative career.
Helen opens up about being diagnosed in her 30s, the complexities of ADHD during menopause, the impact of medication, and the inner conflict of not being "neurotypical.
She shares stories of nativity plays in November to manage childhood hyperactivity, the emotional toll of not fitting in, and how anxiety and masking led to an eating disorder. But this is also a story of triumph: of seeing ADHD not as a limitation, but as a superpower.
Plus—don’t miss Helen’s incredible take on the history of pink, and why it’s far more radical and exceptional than you think.
This is an episode about creativity, courage, and embracing difference—and it’s not one to miss.
