We talk about the challenges of travel with ADHD.  Go check out her blog post she wrote about this. It’s really worth reading. We also talk about learning to make accommodations for ourselves, which includes asking for help.
Terry shares with us a few tips from her upcoming book “Queen of Distraction,” which is due out in October.
“Don’t do it because you have to, do it because you can.”
