Tired of ADHD strategies that don’t work? Here’s what actually does. FREE training here: https://programs.tracyotsuka.com/signup___I'm sure you've heard me say a million times that our best purposes give meaning to our past, we become incredible teachers when we're driven by passion and personal connection. My guest in this episode, Dr. Susan Varaghese, knows firsthand just how important that personal connection is for living her purpose.Dr. Varghese is a General Practitioner and Family Physician who first discovered she has ADHD when perimenopause started to wreak havoc on her previously manageable symptoms. As far as Susan could tell, no one in the medical community was talking about how much perimenopause and menopause can exacerbate the mental and physical symptoms of ADHD, so, being the leader she is, she decided to do it herself.Join me this episode for an insightful conversation with the incredible Dr. Susan Varghese, where she breaks down the role estrogen plays in our ADHD symptoms, the overlaps between ADHD and menopause (some of which even surprised me!), and so much more.______________Resources:Instagram: @drsusanvargheseWebsite: www.drsusanvarghese.comSend a Message: Your Name | Email | Message If this podcast helps you understand your ADHD brain, Shift helps you train it.
