ADHD Awareness Month: Real Strategies for Women to Reclaim Focus, Motivation, and Confidence with Chris Wang

In honor of ADHD Awareness Month, I’m sitting down with Chris, the co-founder of Shimmer, to explore the real-life challenges and hidden strengths of living with ADHD. Chris shares his personal journey — from being diagnosed as an adult to realizing the lack of effective behavioral support — and how that inspired her to create Shimmer, a platform designed to help people with ADHD thrive through coaching, community, and tools that actually work.

Chris shares in this episode the rate of ADHD diagnoses in adult women has gone way up, how symptoms often present differently, and why personalized behavioral strategies can be life-changing. We also discuss: 

• The different ADHD types and symptom categories

• Why medication alone isn’t always enough

• How to manage relationships, career, and overwhelm with ADHD

• The best tools, tips, and lifestyle shifts for focus and calm

• The critical role of sleep, exercise, and daily routines in managing ADHD
  

I learned a lot in this one and am so happy Chris was able to come on the pod!
