The Neurodivergent Woman Podcast

The Neurodivergent Woman Podcast is hosted by clinical psychologist Monique Mitchelson and clinical neuropsychologist Dr Michelle Livock.

This is a podcast that showcases neurodivergent women from all walks of life. We aim to understand their experiences and amplify their voices. We also aim to educate and inform the world about neurodivergence, from ADHD to Autism and everything in between.

We share information on neurodiversity in girls and women, how to navigate the neurotypical world, as well as interviewing women about their lived experience of neurodiversity. We cover all the important topics, from relationships and work through to latest evidence, therapeutic strategies, mental health, and identity and self expression.

This podcast is also for the families, friends, partners, bosses, colleagues, and health professionals of neurodivergent people.

How to ADHD

How to ADHD with Jessica McCabe

Have ADHD? Know someone with ADHD? Want to learn more? You're in the right place!

Most weeks I post a new video with tips, tricks and insights into the ADHD brain.

This channel is my ADHD toolbox -- a place to keep all the strategies I've learned about having and living with ADHD. It's also grown into an amazing community of brains (and hearts!) who support and help each other.

Anyone looking to learn more about ADHD is welcome here!

Russell Barkley, Ph.D.

Taking Charge of Adult ADHD Book

This channel is dedicated to disseminating the science about ADHD.

It is based on Dr. Barkley's 45 years of clinical practice, research, and teaching and his many books and scientific papers.

In 2023, he was named by Research.com as the 37th most influential researcher in the US and 65th in the world in terms of the impact of his research on psychological science as attested to by how often his research is cited by others.

He has recently retired. In anticipation of his retirement, he has created videos of more than 30 hours of his lectures that have been posted here for laypeople and professionals alike. Although the initial videos posted here are in their original length as given at conferences, most videos have now been broken down into shorter segments, numbered sequentially, and organized into playlists for ease of viewing.
