"They're just not trying hard enough." If you've ever thought this about a struggling kid, Dr. Ashnoo Nanavati is here to change your mind. This board-certified child and adolescent psychiatrist joins hosts Dr. Christopher Villarreal and Dr. Deb Anderson to debunk the most damaging ADHD myths and reveal what's really going on.

Learn why ADHD isn't about effort or willpower, why teachers often see concerns before parents do, and how to navigate those first conversations with your pediatrician. Dr. Nanavati reframes ADHD from deficit to difference, highlighting the creativity and innovative thinking that often comes with ADHD brains.

Whether you're a parent questioning behaviors you're seeing or an educator seeking better understanding, this episode offers the science-backed perspective that changes everything.
