    Finding Magic in ADHD: An Honest Conversation

    Finding Magic in ADHD: An Honest Conversation

    Revisiting this conversation with Adva from 2022. We delved into the complex and often misunderstood world of ADHD. I had the privilege of speaking to her last year and being educated on what ADHD means, she courageously shares her journey of self-discovery and acceptance after being diagnosed with ADHD as an adult, at the age of 37. Our discussion highlights the importance of understanding this neurological difference and dismantling long-standing misconceptions. We explore the challenges around medication, societal expectations, and the need for improved ADHD awareness and representation. Adva provided an inside look into her upcoming book, aiming to offer hope, connection, and a more optimistic view about living with ADHD.

    Cracking the Code of Silence: A Woman's Fearless Crusade to Reclaim History

    Cracking the Code of Silence: A Woman's Fearless Crusade to Reclaim History

    This episode I was joined by Joanne Inrator who talked to me about the challenges she faced and overcame during her decade-long search for restitution for 16 Wallstrasse, a major center-city Berlin property that was taken from her family by the Nazis. 

    Her book has been featured in international magazine articles and museum exhibits.
     Joanne was born and raised in New York City. Her parents fled Hitler's Germany as refugees. As a psychiatrist for 30 years, she conducted groundbreaking research on brain imaging of the criminally insane. The associated paper was published in the journal Biological Psychiatry and is frequently cited. The New Yorker magazine wrote about her scientific work.
