Welcome to the Attention Deficit Disorder Expert Podcast Series by Attitude magazine.

Hello everyone and we're glad you can attend Attitudes Weekly ADHD experts webinar. We do hope that everyone is staying safe and staying well.

Just some housekeeping before we get started.

If you've listened to one of our webinars before,

you know we offer attendees a certificate of attendance. When the webinar ends,

post-event survey will pop up. It will list three questions about the quality of

the webinar, followed by three questions titled required for certificate.

If you would like a certificate of attendance email to you you should answer those

three questions. If you don't want one, then don't bother answering the questions, obviously.

Today's topic is reassessing goals and priorities after COVID-19.

I just, let's be honest, life is already is was challenging enough without the heavy weight of trying to get through a pandemic with our spirit sense of joy

and brain intact. We're all feeling a little unsettled and at the same time drained as we try to maintain some kind of balance in our life. Grocery shopping has become a full-time job unto itself,

as the food supply chain is not as seamless as it once was.

Our kids feel lonely without being able to hang out with friends. We worry about our

jobs. And as if that weren't enough, we can't help but think about what the new normal

will be like after the COVID crisis dies down.

Neurotypical brains are challenged and ADHD brains are under siege.

We need new strategies to guide us toward a joyful and productive life after the pandemic.

Thankfully we have Michelle Novavavli here to provide some direction and guidance.

Michelle is an internationally recognized expert in the field of ADHD.

She's the former president and CEO of the National Attention Deficit Disorder Association known as Atta.

She's the best-selling author, psychologist, coach, and parent of a young adult with ADHD.
