Individuals with ADHD often experience periods of success along with failures or poor performance. This inconsistency can lead to self-doubt that may cause them to create barriers to protect themselves, like adopting different personas to hide in plain sight. In this episode, host Jeff Copper (https://digcoaching.com) talks to ADDiva Linda Roggli (http://www.addiva.net) who shares her experiences both as a coach and personally with ADHD. Join them as they shed light on the “perfectionist,” the “ditz,” the “superhero,” and other personas used to deflect and protect. More importantly, Linda talks about its long-term effects and the exhaustion it causes. If you identify with this, don’t miss this show!
