ADHD for Smart Ass Women

fullDescription

An unprecedented guide for any woman with ADHD looking to celebrate her unique brilliance and to embark on a journey of self-discovery.

ADHD is one of the most common neurological disor­ders in the United States—yet a staggering 75 percent of girls and women remain undiagnosed. Due to the gen­der gap in medical research, which does not account for symptoms manifesting differently in women—leading to increased problems with anxiety, depression, work­ing memory, sleep, energy, and concentration—many ADHD women are left to navigate a society that fails to understand their struggles and gifts. But what if every woman had the resources and support to uncover the hidden wonders of her neurodivergent brain?

Enter certified ADHD coach and podcast host Tracy Otsuka. Armed with her experience coaching thou­sands of women, cutting-edge medical research, and personal insights from her own diagnosis, she presents a revelatory guide tailored specifically for girls and women with ADHD. In it, Otsuka offers an entirely new set of tools, systems, and strategies to access a world of boundless productivity, focus, and confidence.

With her signature wit and levity—in entertaining chapters designed for ADHD readers—Otsuka explores the unique challenges that ADHD women face and illuminates the extraordinary qualities that set them apart: overflowing creativity, laser-focused attention, deep empathy, and fearless entrepreneurial spirit. Even without an official diagnosis, readers will be equipped with the tools to conquer any to-do list and to tap into their true purpose, personally or professionally.

By dismantling the long-standing stereotypes and misinformation surrounding women with ADHD, Otsuka offers a beacon of hope for any woman looking to transform her symptoms into strengths. Comprehensive, lively, and long overdue, ADHD for Smart Ass Women is the key to unlocking unparalleled potential and to understanding your truly magnifi­cent and brilliant brain.

Are you ready to discover your superpower?

     September 25, 2023
     Otsuka adapts her podcast of the same name into an accessible debut guide aimed at helping women to harness their neurodivergent traits to achieve their goals. She begins by explaining what ADHD is (and isn’t), why women struggle to get diagnosed, and how it affects them differently from men—for example, women are more likely to experience inattentive-type ADHD, which is typified by a quiet demeanor and difficulties with focus and organization. Elsewhere, Otsuka helps readers “determine your personal values, strengths, skills, passions, and purpose,” explaining that defining for oneself what “a life of meaning” looks like can help those with ADHD to “pursue work, activities, or ambitions that align with who truly are.” While the advice sections are far-reaching in scope, they sometimes lack the depth that listeners of Otsuka’s podcast may expect, especially in the author’s abbreviated discussion of ADHD in relationships. Still, those new to their diagnoses will glean as much valuable insight from Otsuka’s strategies (for example, how to use diet and exercise to reduce certain ADHD symptoms) as from her explanations of such matters as why emotional regulation is more difficult for neurodivergent women than neurotypical women. Delivered in lucid and unpretentious prose, this is a solid starting point for those just beginning to learn about ADHD and its effects on the brain.
