    Ep. 89: Creative Living with ADHD, with Ellen Langford

    For ADHD Awareness Month, we talk with painter Ellen Langford about her ADHD journey and how it intertwines with her creative life. Ellen shares the gifts and challenges of neurodivergence as an artist and small business owner, and the strategies that help her thrive. Ellen Langford is a painter whose body of work is inspired by landscapes, chance meetings, and the cross-currents of the South. As a former paramedic in central Mississippi, she was moved by the personal stories of her patients and the quiet rituals of their lives. Ellen has studied her craft in cities such as New York, San Francisco, DC, and Italy, among other places, but her work took on its recognizable narrative quality when she returned home to Jackson, Mississippi. As a parent and animal lover, Ellen often incorporates children and animals into her paintings, color, movement, and texture to build the story worlds her figures inhabit.  You can find Ellen's work at ellenlangford.com, on Instagram at @ellenlangfordpaints, and Facebook at Ellen Langford Paints. You can support Ellen's lifelong dream to hike the Appalachian Trail here.
