Summary
Episode 165 with Brooke Schnittman.
“You try to accommodate and please everyone and it ends up biting you in the ass because you're the one who suffers.”
Brooke is a compassionate ADHD coach who has worked alongside ADHDers and their families since 2006. However, Brooke herself wasn’t officially diagnosed with ADHD until 2019.
She now runs Coaching with Brooke, an international coaching organization based in Boca Raton, FL, and she has rapidly become a leading global authority in the field of ADHD coaching.
She has been featured in magazines and websites such as Forbes, Entrepreneur, ADDitude, and CHADD. Her work has also been featured on news outlets such as CBS, NBC, and FOX. She also hosts the SuccessFULL With ADHD podcast and runs the popular Instagram account, @coachingwithbrooke.
We talk about her new book, Activate Your ADHD Potential: A 12-Step Journey from Chaos to Confidence for Adults with ADHD, as well as her trademarked 3C activation program. We also talk about building and maintaining momentum, and moving past ADHD underwhelm, overwhelm, and other ADHD disruptors.
I’ve been trying to get Brooke on this podcast for years now, so I’m so glad we could finally make this work — it’s a fantastic conversation (no surprise there), and I know you’ll love what she has to say so here is my conversation with Brooke!

| 0:10.6 | Are you exhausted even though it feels like you're not getting anything done? If you're nodding along, |
| 0:15.9 | then I've got some exciting news. I've recently expanded the women and ADHD team by joining forces with a few |
| 0:22.4 | of my favorite ADHD coaches, each of whom I trust wholeheartedly because they share my values |
| 0:28.1 | of compassionate, neurodivergent affirming support. Consistent one-on-one coaching from someone |

| 1:08.8 | then we have more time for things. We all have the same 24 hours |
| 1:12.6 | in a day. It's not that we don't work as efficient as a neurotypical. It's just that we |
| 1:17.3 | expect so much of ourselves and we over-schedule. Hello and welcome to the Women and ADHD podcast. |
| 1:30.1 | I'm your host, Katie Weber. |
| 1:31.6 | I was diagnosed with ADHD at the age of 45, and it completely turned my world upside down. |
| 1:38.0 | I've been looking back at so much of my life, school, jobs, my relationships, all of it with this new lens, and it has been nothing |
| 1:46.7 | short of overwhelming. |
| 1:48.4 | I quickly discovered I was not the only woman to have this experience, and now I interview |
| 1:52.8 | other women who, like me, discovered in adulthood they have ADHD and are finally feeling |
