Maybe it's depression and anxiety, or…maybe it's undiagnosed ADHD?
My name is Torrian and I am your hood, holy, and hyper-focused host. I am also a Sista with ADHD! Join me and guests as we dive into the intersection of living with ADHD as a Black woman.
Together, we are learning to embrace radical self acceptance, advocate, and accommodate until we create a life we actually LOVE!
