E082: A Successful Mama's ADHD Diagnosis Journey with Dina Quondamatteo, The ADHD Lawyer

Our guest this week is Dina Quondamatteo, better known as The ADHD Lawyer. Dina has an innate ability to be strong and vulnerable simultaneously, with infectious enthusiasm and drive to encourage others with ADHD. We talk about juggling school and raising twins, getting to know your life long roommate named ADHD, and why she went back to law school at age 40 - and was persistent enough to get accommodations for the Bar Exam! She lives by her daily rituals, and encourages us to begin our day with gratitude and intention. Dina is part of the late diagnosis club, learning the name for her uniqueness at the age of 40. Get ready to laugh and cringe as you hear parts of your life woven through Dina's story as she shares her ADHD journey with us, and witness her perseverance and persistence in the face of insurmountable obstacles.   Dina's story is part of our March Mama Madness Series, so stay tuned for part 2! In our next episode, Dina and I dive into our discussion on self-care, how we can use movement and exercise as part of our ADHD treatment, her love of rituals, and how she stays positive through it all. Each week of our series on self-care, our guest will share an area of self care that we can use to take care of our ADHD brain, body, mind, and soul . I cannot wait for you to, not only learn what gives you energy, but know wholeheartedly that it is totally doable to take care of ourselves when we make it ADHD friendly. We're starting with simplicity - baby steps and we're aiming for progress over perfection.  Come'on.
