I really enjoyed this conversation with ADHD coach Monica Hassal of Connect ADHD. Monica and I met at last year’s ADHD Conference, and she’s been a big supporter of this show. I am overjoyed to finally have her on! She's incredibly knowledgeable, as evidenced by this episode. I'm sure I'll have her back on in the future. You can learn more about her work at ConnectADHD.com.
In today’s episode, we discuss Executive Function, why ADHD rarely travels alone, and the various layers that underly problem behaviors through Monica’s outstanding Volcano of Attention deficit Hyperactivity Disorder.

I really enjoyed my conversation with Juma Innis. Juma is the director of The Message. Juma and his team at provide schools with workshop residencies, assemblies, and concerts in order to empower teens for success in a 21st century powered by media. They teach teens to think more critically about the messages they're being exposed to by helping schools, both the teachers and the students, develop awareness around media literacy education and the needs of our youth.
In today’s episode, we talk about meeting kids where they are, how generational and other blindspots can keep us from connecting, validating the foolishness and silliness of youth, accounting for our shared humanity, and the power of music as a unifying force.
