Welcome to the I Have ADHD podcast, where it's all about education, encouragement, and coaching for adults with ADHD.

I'm your host, Kristen Carter, and I have ADHD. Let's chat about the frustrations, humor,

and challenges of adulting, relationships,

0:22.8

working, and achieving with this neurodevelopmental disorder. I'll help you understand your unique brain,

0:29.7

unlock your potential, and move from point A to point B. Hey, what's up? This is Kristen Carter,

0:36.0

and you're listening to the I have ADHD podcast. I am

0:39.9

medicated, caffeinated, regulated, ready to roll. Happy to be here. Happy to be here with you. I feel like I

1:53.3

One of their employees had actually been in my focused ADHD coaching program over a year ago

1:59.4

and listened to the podcast, was a fan of a podcast, and

2:03.6

recommended that I come and speak at SpaceX. I'm still like I can't even get the words out

2:10.5

without freaking out because I am a person who looks at innovative companies like this as something that is just something to be

2:18.9

celebrated. And I'm very, very excited about that, especially having somebody who is
