We Define ADHD! Empowering Ways to Frame Our Awesome Brains

To kick off ADHD Acceptance month, ADDitude asked you (our readers) to tell us how you define ADHD and its impact. More specifically, we asked: “If you were describing ADHD to a newly diagnosed child, how would you portray it in a way that builds self-esteem, hope, and resolve?”

In this webinar, we will share your responses and explore core ADHD strengths such as creativity, curiosity, problem-solving skills, and resilience with Penn and Kim Holderness, authors of the book ADHD Is Awesome: A Guide To (Mostly) Thriving With ADHD. Along the way, we will also celebrate some of the ways our ADHD brains make us undeniably awesome and essentially irreplaceable.

We know having ADHD is sometimes stressful , but the Holderness Family is very good at showing us how to shift our mindset and lean into the aspects of ADHD that make us unique and wonderful. In this webinar, we will discuss…

• Names that better describe ADHD
• Ways to reframe ADHD through a lens of strength to bolster a child’s or adult’s self-esteem
• Real-world examples of ADHD creativity and curiosity
• Favorite stories of ADHD problem-solving acumen from ADDitude readers
• The ADHD ability to bounce back and keep learning in the face of challenges
• How ADHD can help you win “The Amazing Race” (just kidding, but they actually did win!)
• And much more
