I was invited to do a speaking spot at the “Get on the right ADHD Trail” which is a free summit for Men with ADHD, and I was interviewed by Cathy Goett.
We had a fun conversation just diving into parenting and advocacy and sharing lots of tips.
There were a few things that I wanted to add onto my conversation (because 30 minutes is not enough time), so I recorded this episode. I hope that I’ve set the questions up enough, so you don’t have to hear the summit conversation, but I encourage you to check out the summit conversation anyway.
And just to be a fanboy for a moment, look at all the people in this summit – holy cow, I am blown away to be in their company.
I recorded this episode the day before Owen's psych ed so I had a lot on my mind.
A very special thanks to Brendan Mahan for making this happen.
