ADHD AF Laura Mears-Reynolds

Knee Deep in Life LEGEND Laura Belbin empowers women through humour and realism in all it's sweary, messy glory.  She gives the finger to those who have ever labelled anyone as 'too' anything and wants you all to know YOU ARE ENOUGH!
The legendary Laura is about to take her stand up comedy on tour... and guess what it's called 'TOO MUCH' - we're cut from the same cloth and  I BLOODY LOVE THIS WOMAN! Can't say thank you enough for this very special conversation (which was actually 2 hours long continuing long after we stopped recording, THAT'S HOW AMAZING SHE IS!) Nobody should ever 'avoid eye contact in the playground' with this absolute ICON who implores everyone to celebrate every lump, bump and imperfection of life and to show kindness to ourselves and to all.

TW: Contains very strong language, graphic sexual content and mentions of sensitive subject matter including: Suicide, Depression, Suicidal ideation Home/Work/Family/Relationship Struggles, Parenthood struggles, mental health difficulties, and bullying.

HAPPY EASTER BUNNIES! We certainly are ahead of finally revealing the BIG news in the next episode: on TUESDAY! As explained on socials, ADHDAF Alien Nation is the LAST EVER Tour! I'll be explaining why, and making ENOROMOUS ANNOUNCEMENTS about what myself and a team of LEGENDS have been working hard on behind the scenes... a brand new chapter for ADHDAF!
Exciting/emotional times!

Thank you to everyone who shared their Most ADHD Things this month to make this episode and thanks to my husband Big for co-hosting these monthly specials.
Apologies for glitchy sound, aim to have this fixed for next time!

I created the infamous last question from every ADHD AF Interview, 'What is the most ADHD thing you've done this week?' to unite the ADHD Community with shame eradication, camaraderie and lols!  These personal stories are commented on the weekly socials posts to get ADHDers connected, because Peer Support is invaluable in when dealing with a diagnosis later in life.
Raising ADHD Awareness,and breaking the stigma by poking fun at the calamities and chaos the condition can cause. Turning tragedy into comedy, laughing at the things that would usually make us cry.
My quality of life and self worth greatly improved with the knowledge that these mishaps are not personal failings,and that I'm not alone in them...my hope is that in sharing these silly episodes,yours will too. We're all in this together!

If you are struggling YOU ARE NOT ALONE and there is free and immediate support out there so please do REACH OUT!
