In this week’s episode of The ADHD Women’s Wellbeing Podcast, Kate is joined by Dr Judith Mohring, an internationally respected consultant organisational psychiatrist, coach, therapist and trainer with over 25 years’ experience working across clinical, leadership and organisational settings.Judith brings a deeply compassionate and clinically grounded perspective to understanding ADHD in women, particularly through the lens of hormones, emotional regulation, stress and life stages.Drawing on her work training clinicians, leaders and organisations, and her passion for psychoeducation, this conversation gently challenges the idea that ADHD is static or one-size-fits-all.My new book, The ADHD Women's Wellbeing Toolkit, is now available, grab your copy here!Key Takeaways:What it really means for neurodivergence to be diverseThe role hormonal changes (including perimenopause, PMDD and postmenopause depression) play in emotional overwhelm for womenThe impact of falling progesterone during perimenopause on ADHD symptoms, anxiety and emotional regulationWhy emotional regulation can feel more difficult during periods of stress, ageing or major life transitionsThe value of ADHD psychoeducation and neurodiversity education in helping women understand their brains and advocate for mental health supportHow greater understanding of neurobiology can reshape the way we approach self-careThe practical role of DBT for ADHD, including mindfulness and emotion regulation tools, in everyday lifeHow building an ecosystem of ADHD lifestyle tools (including mindfulness, sleep, movement and community) can support long-term wellbeingWhy raising ADHD awareness and education is essential for compassionate, effective careThis is a validating and empowering episode that invites you to see your ADHD not as something to fix, but as something to understand — with flexibility, curiosity, and kindness.Timestamps: 10:33: Empowering Women with ADHD: Advocacy and Support14:40: Understanding ADHD and Emotional Regulation23:08: The Ecosystem of Neurodiversity28:03: Transitioning from Medication to Holistic Wellbeing35:44: The Power of Journaling and Externalising ThoughtsJoin the More Yourself Community - the doors are now open!More Yourself is a compassionate space for late-diagnosed ADHD women to connect, reflect, and come home to who they really are.
