✨ Introduction to Late Diagnosis ADHD Women & Hormones: Why Your Brain Feels Different (and What to Do About It!) ✨

🔎 Introduction: What This Session Is (and Isn’t!)

Many women go through life never realising they have ADHD—until challenges with work, parenting, or hormonal changes (like perimenopause) push things to breaking point.

If you’ve been diagnosed as an adult—or suspect you have ADHD but were never diagnosed as a child—this session is for you.

This 60-minute introduction will help you understand why so many women are diagnosed late, why ADHD symptoms can suddenly feel worse with age, and what you can do about it.

🔹 We’re just scratching the surface—this isn’t an in-depth deep dive, but you will walk away with a clearer understanding of what’s happening and some practical first steps.

💡 What You’ll Learn (A High-Level Overview in Just 60 Minutes!):

✅ Late Diagnosis & ADHD: Why so many women go undiagnosed for decades.
✅ Hormones & ADHD: How perimenopause, menopause & monthly cycles affect ADHD symptoms.
✅ ADHD in Women: How it presents differently and why it’s often missed.
✅ Memory, Focus & Organisation: Why ADHD “brain fog” gets worse and how to manage it.
✅ Emotional Regulation & Burnout: Why emotions can feel overwhelming—and quick tools to help.
✅ Next Steps: Where to go from here and how to advocate for yourself.

🎯 This is just the beginning—if you want to go deeper, we’ll discuss next steps at the end!
