  • 488 - You’ve Been Diagnosed With ADHD. Here’s What Everyone Misses Next | ADHD Expert

    Your brain isn't broken. It might just be swimming upstream.

    This week I'm joined by Sarah Warley, Founder of BeBright and The Key Clinic, for a deep dive into ADHD, autism, and the "post-diagnostic gap," because after years of watching families get handed a label with no map for what comes next, she built the clinic to answer the question nobody else was asking: what's actually driving the symptoms?


    What we explore together:


    •Why understanding what's actually driving your symptoms matters more than the diagnosis itself


    •The neurodiversity clusters: ADHD, autism, dyslexia, dyspraxia, and why almost no one fits neatly into just one


    •Why labels can be both a relief and a trap, and how to know which one you're in


    •Retained primitive reflexes from infancy that quietly shape adult anxiety, focus and coordination


    •Why the "Great ADHD Myth" documentary got the debate dangerously wrong


    •What neurodivergent burnout actually looks like, and why it hits the highest achievers hardest


    Love, Sarah Ann 💛

  • 487 - What It's Like Growing Up As A Sociopath | Patric Gagne

    This week's Live Well Be Well Moment with Patric Gagne, author and self-identified sociopath.

    We delve into Patric's childhood, when she first realised she was different from everyone around her, what school and friendships looked like, and how she learned to mask — and why understanding this changes everything about how we think about sociopathy in young people.

  • 485 - Why Grief Hurts So Much and How to Live Fully Again | David Kessler

    This week I'm joined by David Kessler, grief expert, author and one of the most important voices in the world on loss, healing and what it means to find meaning after the people we love are gone.

    We explore grief in all its forms, why we get it so wrong, and what it actually looks like to move through loss rather than around it.

    David Kessler co-authored On Grief and Grieving with Elisabeth Kübler-Ross and is the author of six books on grief and loss, including Finding Meaning, which adds a sixth stage to the five stages of grief. He is the founder of grief.com, one of the largest grief resources in the world, and has worked with thousands of people through loss — including after the death of his own son.

    He is widely regarded as the world's foremost expert on grief and has spent his career changing the way we understand and talk about one of the most universal human experiences.

    What we explore together:

    Why the five stages of grief were never meant to be linear — and what that means for how we heal What grief actually is, and why it extends far beyond death Why we are so bad at sitting with other people’s pain — and what to do instead The sixth stage of grief: finding meaning — what it is, and what it isn’t Why your loved one’s physical death is permanent, but your loss of hope is temporary What David learned about grief from losing his own son Why love is the one thing that never dies — and how that changes everything
