    4.9: ADHD

    This episode is with the amazing Parul Singh, founder of Parallel Minds, and we talk everything ADHD; a really personal one for me, given my own recent ADHD diagnosis. We talk about own own experiences with ADHD and how parents can look out for the signs of ADHD either in themselves or in their children. We also discuss why it's so important to get a diagnosis so appropriate help and support can be put into place and the right labels can be attached to our children.

    I'm joined by Mike Nicholson, founder of Progressive Masculinity to talk about the impact that social media influencers are having on young boys. A former teacher, we talk about Mike's work with schools to demonstrate how modern masculinity doesn't have to be what a number of influencers say it should be and that being a man does not equate to being dominant and assertive, especially in relationships.
