Summary

Episode 25 with Liz Cordeiro.

"No one judges me like I judge me."

Liz was diagnosed with combined type ADHD in 2020. Following her diagnosis, she started her Glitter Brain blog, in which she shares her journey, her stories, her tips, and educational information about ADHD and related conditions. She currently lives in Northern Virginia, and when she’s not blogging, she enjoys spending time with her husband and dog, cooking, and running.

We talk about chronic struggles with negative self-talk and self-image, as well as the pendulum of mood swings that lead so many of us to wonder if we have bipolar disorder. And Liz shares about her long & winding road to a diagnosis and sobriety. Enjoy!
