Refocused, A Podcast All About ADHD

Lindsay Guentzel was almost 35 years old when she was diagnosed with ADHD. It turned out to be the answer she didn't know she was looking for. The journalist and mental health advocate is now exploring the often misunderstood world of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder. Discover tools and mindset shifts to help you start living your best life. Those old, outdated assumptions about ADHD? Refocused with Lindsay Guentzel is changing that narrative. Those stigmas have held us back for long enough. It's time to refocus our energy and we hope you'll join us. Want to join the conversation?

    Dani Donovan and Finding Her Way Through ADHD Content Creation

    In the midst of our little rest-n-relaxation break we’ve been taking the last couple of month, we somehow found ourselves diving into another project that we can’t wait to share with you soon! While we iron out those details, enjoy another incredible conversation we had back in 2022 during ADHD Awareness Month. Today’s guest is a name we know you’ll recognize. Dani Donovan is one of the OGs of ADHD content creation, sharing her journey and perspective on how the disorder shows up in her life so generously with the world. Hear her share why she’s chosen this path and what its meant for her. Hint: Little Dani is screaming at the irony! Dani and Lindsay also talk breaking down ADHD stereotypes, being a woman with ADHD and managing friendships, and the importance of workplace accommodations for neurodivergent people. To learn more about Dani and the work she is doing for the ADHD community, check out her website here. And if you haven’t already, make sure to pick up Dani’s book, The Anti-Planner: How to Get Sh*t Done When You Don't Feel Like It, available now!

    Sarah Dimeo, ADHD, and Burnout

    The Refocused team is getting some much needed R&R and while we do that, we’re replaying some of the incredible conversations we had during our very first Refocused, Together in 2022. Today, we’re going back to our conversation with Sarah Dimeo. Sarah was diagnosed with ADHD when she was 37 and happened years before the pandemic started. There’s so much to relate to in Sarah’s story – her struggles with setting boundaries and prioritization with her career, the immense amount of work she’s had to put in on building her self-love and acceptance, and the lessons she had to learn – some of them over and over again – to finally find her way out of the burnout cycle.
