This Week's Episode: Julie Reichenberger is a counselor in Denver, Colorado. She primarily works with adolescents and adults with ADHD. Julie, who has ADHD herself, found accepting her ADHD to be a real struggle. In this conversation, you will hear Julie's story of discovering she has ADHD. At a certain point, she had what she calls a "final acceptance" of her diagnosis. Some of her stories involve her not being as self-aware at younger ages. We talk about the idea of whether or not things are easier if you're less self-aware. When Julie sits in the ADHD reWired Hot Seat, we talk about her struggle with naming her business. We go through some of the legal and strategic things to consider in this process.
