About this listen

Jade Al Mulla, leadership coach and Famiigo CEO, shares her journey of receiving an ADHD diagnosis as an adult and navigating the complex emotions of identity, success, and cultural expectations with compassion and humour. Half Emirati, half American, fully unforgettable.

  • Meeting through roller derby, a full-contact sport on skates that became unlikely therapy for women in the UAE
  • Receiving an ADHD diagnosis as an adult and the complex feelings of grief, relief, and identity questioning that followed
  • The concept of the "hobby graveyard" – that collection of abandoned interests gathering dust in the closet
  • Finding that success can be more terrifying than failure when it threatens connections to our past
  • The "snow globe moment" when everything you thought you knew about yourself gets shaken up
  • Cultural differences in approaching neurodiversity and how the UAE is making rapid progress
  • Practical strategies like daily journaling and pattern recognition for managing ADHD
  • Creating Famiigo, an app designed to help families find activities and make memories together
  • The importance of doing one thing that scares you, like appearing on a podcast
