Navigating ADHD in Relationships

The Steph & Craig Show

Are you one of the millions of people who’ve TikTok diagnosed themselves with ADHD? Maybe you fall somewhere on the neurodivergent spectrum and have been trying to make sense of it all.

On today’s episode Steph and Craig explore what it’s like living with ADHD and being neurodivergent together. Both have discovered they are on the spectrum later in their adult life and have been unpacking the realities for the past several years.

They both share personal anecdotes of what it was like growing up during the 80’s and never having clarity around being neurodivergent, as well as the ongoing process of learning more about what it truly means.

Through humor and vulnerability, they highlight the importance of self compassion and understanding while doing their best to embrace their new understanding of living with ADHD.
