What is the difference between knowing about ADHD and owning our ADHD? If we as adults with ADHD are going to thrive in life and in professional settings, we have to understand how to own our ADHD. It’s important for us to understand our individual ADHD, as well as how our brain operates. It is equally important for those with ADHD to be able to take charge. In this episode of Overcoming Distractions Podcast, David Greenwood interviews Jeff Copper about what it takes to actually be in charge of your ADHD and take ownership of it. https://digcoaching.com/owning-adhd

ADHD coach Jeff Copper has been invited to participate as one of four panelists in the Neurodiversity Inclusion in Coaching event sponsored by International Coaching Federation (ICF). Neurodiversity includes ADHD, autism, anxiety, dyslexia, and other neurological conditions. This panel discussion will be significant because some coaches worldwide are not equipped to serve neurodiverse clients even with such a wide range of neurodisabilities. The session takes place May 10, 2022, at Noon EDT. Registration is available to ICF members only. Learn more at https://digcoaching.com/icw-neurodiversity/

Check out Jeff Copper’s article in CHADD’s April 2022 edition of Attention Magazine on “Embrace Miscellaneous Organization for Your Ideas.” Organization can be pretty, but it doesn’t have to be. Even if the system looks ugly, it doesn’t mean you are not organized. If you can find what you’re looking for, you are organized. The article was written in the hope that adults with ADHD would feel validated and finally give themselves permission to acknowledge they are, in fact, organized. www.digcoaching.com/attention-42022

During October’s ADHD Awareness Month, you’ll see a ton of information about ADHD everywhere. Most of it is about kids, but ADDA is just for adults. That’s why ADDA created the TADD Talk program. A riff on TED Talks, TADD Talks are shorter – 9 minutes (half the length of a TED Talk – because, you know, ADHD!) ADDA’s TADD Talks program brings 31 of the best experts in adult ADHD together and invites each expert to give a “TADD” Talk. I’m thrilled to give one of their now-famous TADD Talks, and I’ll be sharing My ADHD Hero’s Journey on October 6, 2021, alongside experts like Sari Solden, Dr. Ari Tuckman, Linda Walker, Linda Roggli, and more! Sign up right now to receive your daily dose of TADD Talk Story greatness. www.digcoaching.com/tadd/
Jeff Copper appears as a guest expert on ADHD Love with Yakini Pierce. He talks about working memory and how it is affected by ADHD. He also gives us a brief attention exercise.

As an ADHD coach, I have witnessed an ongoing debate around ADHD, whether it’s a gift or a curse, that unfairly has pitted Dr. Ned Hallowell and Dr. Russell Barkley against each other, with Dr. Barkley as “Dr. Evil” and Dr. Hallowell as “Pollyanna.” The conversations are often polarizing and emotional, and when we don’t understand the workings of ADHD, it can look like a curse. If you are struggling with ADHD, my new eBook, “ADHD: The Gift of Hope,” will help you understand the condition as one of HOPE, rather than a curse or a gift. Then, you can manage ADHD challenges as you never have before. Learn more: www.digcoaching.com/adhd-the-gift-of-hope/
