For years, I built a life that looked good on the outside — organized, accomplished, in control. But behind that carefully curated image was a constant undercurrent of worry, confusion, and shame. I didn’t know I had ADHD. I just thought I was failing at being a person in ways no one else seemed to struggle with. In this episode, I share the story of my late diagnosis and how it’s helped me reframe my entire life — from childhood to career to relationships. This is an honest look at what it means to mask, to cope, and finally, to begin again with compassion and clarity.
