    Aug 15 2025

    "Welcome back, Trauma Bonded Besties! We are so excited to have you here for another episode. This week, we’re taking a deep dive into a topic that’s close to home for so many of us—ADHD. We’ll be sharing not just how it plays a role in our own daily lives and relationships, but also the bigger picture: how ADHD affects our education system, from the way classrooms are structured to how students are supported (or not). Whether you have ADHD yourself, love someone who does, or just want to better understand it, this conversation is packed with insights, personal stories, and maybe even a few laughs along the way. So buckle up, besties—this is going to be a good one!"
