In this week's episode, we're diving into a fascinating and often overlooked area of ADHD: interoception.

What happens when a top sales leader turns inward, rewires her patterns, and reclaims her identity? The answer might surprise you. In this intimate episode of The Soul Fusion Podcast, Penny sits down with certified hypnotist and entrepreneur Tina Madsen for a powerful conversation on what it really takes to shift your identity, regulate your nervous system, and live from a place of presence—even in the chaos of parenting, ADHD, and building a life that actually feels good. Tina's journey is not just inspiring—it's a masterclass in resilience, self-leadership, and what happens when you finally learn how to work with your subconscious mind instead of against it. With a background as a former elite athlete and global sales leader (top 1% in her company), Tina knew how to perform. But it wasn't until she said yes to hypnosis that she learned how to be at ease in her body, mind, and life. And yes… something is shifting behind the scenes of the Soul Fusion world. There's more unfolding in this episode than just Tina's personal story.

Dr. Kathleen Nadeau is someone who I'd call one of the godmothers of ADHD in women. She was one of the first people to stand up to the medical establishment and say, “Yes, ADHD affects women and girls, and we need to do something about it.”She persisted against the gatekeepers who'd call her and her peers “ADHD wannabes,” responding to their dismissal by writing books, conducting research, and being fierce advocates. Dr. Nadeau is also one of my personal heroes, and someone I've looked up to for years. That's all to say: I'm very excited to share with you this week's episode of Hyperfocus. Listen or watch as we discuss the history of ADHD in women and girls, what the DSM misses on ADHD, gender inequality in the medical community, and more. Related resourcesDr. Nadeau's biography at The Chesapeake CenterMissUnderstood: The ADHD in Women ChannelWhat is the ADHD tax?Timestamps(1:55) Dr. Nadeau's early days and “ADHD wannabes”(14:33) How should we diagnose ADHD in women?(16:30) Women being shut out of the medical establishment(20:25) “Ask the women”For a transcript of this episode and more resources, visit the Hyperfocus episode page on Understood.We'd love to hear from you.

From parenting struggles to podcasting success, Katy Weber's ADHD journey has reshaped her life. Diagnosed at 45, Katy—a health coach and founder of Women & ADHD—found herself rethinking everything she thought she knew about ADHD. This unexpected self-discovery helped her understand how ADHD had influenced her as a mother, professional, and individual. Through her podcast, she's built a supportive, encouraging space for neurodivergent women to connect, share stories, and find community.Katy's story is one of resilience and self-discovery, full of twists that many will find relatable. Before entering the ADHD advocacy world, Katy spent years as a journalist, covering a range of human experiences and honing her ability to tell powerful stories. With experience at publications like National Geographic and PsychCentral, she now brings her storytelling expertise to Women & ADHD, sharing stories and insights that make listeners feel seen and understood. This episode captures her journey from the fast-paced world of New York City to finding a new sense of balance in the Hudson Valley, where she has found purpose in health coaching and community-building.Through Women & ADHD, Katy addresses topics that resonate with her listeners on a personal level, such as the complex relationship between ADHD and binge eating and moving beyond diet culture to embrace a more holistic approach to health. She shares how ADHD affects not only personal identity but also how women show up in their work and family lives. Katy's story goes beyond diagnosis; it's a journey of learning, unlearning, and embracing the strengths that come with ADHD. Her message is clear: it's never too late to understand your own mind and rewrite your narrative in ways that are both empowering and authentic.Resources:Website: https://www.womenandadhd.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/womenandadhdpodcast LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/womenandadhd Learn more by connecting with Tracy through Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, Pinterest, or visit adhdforsmartwomen.com.Are You Ready to Discover Your Brilliance?

Several years ago, Rhoberta Shaler, PhD, interviewed me on the topic of whether women with ADHD are at greater risk for entering into a relationship with a narcissist or toxic partner on her podcast “Save Your Sanity.” I have not done any qualitative research on the subject, but based on my experience as a psychotherapist and a coach, I have seen plenty of evidence that it may be true. I was contemplating recording a solo episode on the topic when I learned that Dr Shaler passed away unexpectedly in April 2024. So, instead of recording something on my own, I decided to share the best parts of the original interview on her show in honor of her important work. In this episode, Dr Shaler and I explore how women with ADHD, who tend to be quite intuitive often miss the warning signs that the person they are involved is a narcissist. We unpack everything from the addictive allure of unpredictable partners to the internalized shame that makes us more vulnerable to remain in unhealthy relationships. Our dialog offers a fresh perspective on the dopamine deficiency that drives us, insights on how rejection sensitivity, impulsivity, and the hidden brilliance of ADHD play a part in partner selection. If you have ever found yourself in a manipulative relationship, or questioned your self-worth, this conversation will provide the validation you need to seek out more information and healing. Mic Drop Moment: "I think we are born with a brain that is very intuitive because we can make connections between things and sense things that are maybe not self evident to others. So I believe that women with ADHD can sense the abnormality in the hijackle's approach in their behavior, in the inconsistencies between how they may behave at one time and then another, but we override our ability to lean into, to trust our instincts and our intuition because of the persistent self doubt and all the negative messages that we have internalized."

Today I am joined with the delightful and insightful Tracy Otsuka! Tracy shares her personal journey of discovering her own ADHD after her son's diagnosis and how it led her to become a passionate advocate for women with ADHD. With her unique blend of humor, vulnerability, and wisdom, Tracy challenges the traditional narrative surrounding ADHD and sheds light on the remarkable strengths and brilliance of women with this neurodivergent superpower.As the host of the top-ranking podcast "ADHD for Smart Ass Women," Tracy has empowered thousands of women to embrace their unique brain wiring and uncover their hidden potential. Join me as we explore Tracy's inspiring story, from her early struggles with masking and self-doubt to her triumphant journey of self-discovery and advocacy. Tracy has never encountered a woman with ADHD who wasn't truly brilliant in some aspect. Tracy brings a wealth of personal and professional experience to the table. A lawyer by training, a lifelong learner, and a certified ADHD coach, Otsuka is dedicated to shifting the narrative surrounding ADHD. Her own diagnosis, which came eight months after her son's, clarified her life's many puzzles. However, she quickly realized the discourse around ADHD often focuses on the struggles, overshadowing the strengths. Otsuka discovered that her ADHD was the source of some of her most remarkable abilities. Notably, while there's frequent discussion of successful men with ADHD, women with the condition tend to be overlooked. Otsuka aims to change that, providing a space to recognize, support, and celebrate women with ADHD. These women are her tribe, and she stands as a fervent supporter and advocate for their recognition and success. Episode Highlights:[3:54] - Tracy shares how her son's struggles in school led to his ADHD diagnosis at age 12.[8:06] - The surprising realization that Tracy herself had ADHD, after her son's diagnosis.[13:27] - Navigating law school with undiagnosed ADHD and the constant feeling of not being "smart enough."[15:26] - The challenges of writing a book with ADHD and the fear of forgetting its contents.[19:05] - Brooke and Tracy bond over their shared experiences with working memory struggles.[21:20] - Tracy opens up about the devastating loss of her mother.[34:33] - The story behind the bold and unapologetic name "ADHD for Smart Ass Women."[39:18] - Tracy's nuanced perspective on whether ADHD is a superpower or a deficit.[41:18] - Strategies for staying in the task-positive network (TPN) and avoiding burnout. Connect with Tracy Otsuka:Podcast & Book: “ADHD for Smart Ass Women”: https://adhdforsmartwomen.com/  Thank you for tuning into "SuccessFULL with ADHD."

Imagine my surprise when I found my name at the center of a heated discussion on Reddit and it wasn't in the Super Healthy Hot Babes forum. No. It was the ADHD Women forum. What??My tips for a healthy habit loop sat at the top of a thread, and the responses? Women in tears, angry, and ready to throw fists.Listen, I think they had every reason to feel that way, and I love a push to learn more. *In walks guest and ADHD Expert Brooke Schnittman stage left*.Brooke is an awesome author, podcast host, entrepreneur and ADHD woman herself.She blew my mind and really changed how I will approach and understand people with ADHD from now on. And I'm not one to make bold claims (wait, yes, I am), and I think you will too.So let's get to the nitty gritty. Can ADHD women (or men or children) form healthy habits? Well yes. But Brooke explains that the need to form habits goes way beyond fitness or health goals, habits become crucial to an ADHD person's very basic needs. Okay, I will eat my words when I say that brushing your teeth isn't a chore.  When it comes down to it, ADHD women rebel at the nearest sign of structure, but the truth is they need it to thrive. Structure, schedules, routines, microchanges, tools, rewards, medication—these are the mix bag of things ADHD women need to make things happen.But don't forget about the superpowers; people with ADHD have these internal processes and hyperfixations that can totally outdo us neurotypicals. It's a double edged sword.Tune in to hear how ADHD looks different based on your gender or age, common signs, and the accepted testing formats.And if you were listening to this episode and thinking, FINALLY SOMEONE UNDERSTANDS ME as you break down to your knees in answered prayer.Then, hey, this one was for you! Reach out to Brooke, reach out to a coach, find a way to get your life structured, and secure those habits in a way that helps you thrive. It's not as easy as brushing your teeth; it's as HARD as brushing your teeth, but you CAN do it.  What's Inside:How does the habit loop work for people with ADHD?How does ADHD differ in women compared to men and children?How can people with ADHD structure their lives for better performance?What tools and supports are available to those with ADHD?Yes, I can say that after this experience, I can see how it may not be easy to brush your teeth or take a shower. There is so much more that goes into it. Do you have ADHD?
