Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (Also known as ADHD) presents itself in three main symptoms: inattention and hyperactivity or impulsivity. Hyperactivity and impulsivity are closely related and oftentimes coexist with inattention. Women and girls with ADHD most often go undiagnosed for several reasons. This is due in part because women tend do have less obvious or less misbehaved characteristics than men do.

Bravo!
The new, much awaited bible on how to work with your brain, not against it.
Best I've listened to or read! Easy to understand with any harder term broken down. Examples given from a wide range of people's experiences e.g. on time blindness.
Go on, read it, or listen to it yourself for insights on Brains for Hearts, or Brains for Brains.
I've taken some notes about what to action in my life over the upcoming months. Good thing I did eventually buy a 2024 calendar before listening on audible.

I’m not broken! The gift Jess gives her ADHD community.
As someone diagnosed with ADHD in my mid-30’s, I found Jess’s YouTube channel a big help to understand myself and explain my brain to others (dealing with assumptions and stereotypes along the way). And so, I couldn’t wait to read Jess’s book. Full disclosure, I bought both the hardcover book and the audiobook - I’ve needed both for the way I learn.
Jess has done a fantastic job with her team collating the research on ADHD from experts and infusing it with her own lived experiences, and those of other “Brains” from around the world.
This book doesn’t promise to be a fix-all. All of us “Brains” are different. But the tools she provides are practical, grounded in research, and informed by lived experience. Throughout the book I think “that’s me she’s described”, but importantly I’m left understanding why I have been struggling, and without feeling any judgement. I’m simply learning.
Finally, the best part of the audiobook is having Jess read it herself. Her experience on YouTube has made her an expert on delivery, conveying the enthusiasm, empathy, and encouragement that she’s known for. Thank-you for this gift of a resource to the ADHD community and our loved ones!!

What I needed to hear and know I could trust.
As a newly minted ADHD’er, this is the book I really needed. Explanations of my brain that were clear, accurate, well researched, and delivered in a way that was easy to follow, relateable, engaging, informative and amusing.
I have listened and read simultaneously to support my focus and found this worked really well.
The book follows a very similar style to her uTube vlog by the same name. ‘How to ADHD’, the vlog, was actually recommended to me by a specialist, so it was great to know her work was reliable and trustworthy as I was reading, not just experienced based, thought the personal experience is what makes this book so good. She knows this. She lives it. It’s not just an area of interest for Jessica, it’s her own life journey. Thank you Jessica!

Worth the Wait
Thank you Jessica, for putting this thorough, captivating and relevant piece of work together. I can relate in so many ways!
I would like to review it properly on my website soon (okay let's just say I've put this on my mental list 🤪).
There were parts when I cried with you (especially the end), laughed with you (oh so relatable!), and parts when I was so GRATEFUL that you did the work of teasing out the information.
I've been meaning to start my blog properly for years (I've been paying for the domain for 3 years already 🙃) but hadn't because I couldn't face the emotions of my subject matter: ADHD and being diagnosed later in life.
So again, thank you from the bottom of my heart ❤️

While not diagnosed I can relate and be checked up.
When listening to this book, what I took as normal was something that I now know has some gaps that I could not answer. I am trying the strategies and now know why creativity need boundaries. I am a member of the YouTube channel and it has been amazing to learn how to adjust.

The perfect starting point
I’m 38 and was just diagnosed with ADHD. This is the most helpful resource I’ve found so far. I especially appreciate the care put in to make the book ADHD brain friendly, with information being broken up into small bites. Even the citation list is accessible!
The clinical information was helpful but so were the personal anecdotes which made me feel a little less alone.

Authentic, from the heart (and the brain!)
I'm so glad the audiobook is read by Jessica, because it wouldn't have the same authenticity if someone else was reading the words from her heart and mind.
Don't think of this as just a book. Think of it as as an instruction manual for the ADHD brain that you can refer yourself (or someone else) back to whenever you (or they) need it.
Nothing will ever be a comprehensive be all / end all guide to 'How to ADHD', but this is about the closest anyone could hope to get.

I've researched heaps since my mature aged diagnosis for ADHD. I related to so much of Jessica's book and learned a few new things along the way. The takeaway is about embracing our divergent brains and celebrating who we are, the way we are.
Very enjoyable book that I will listen to again and again for some affirmation.
