This podcast episode features a rich conversation with Lucy Lucraft, a midlife, ADHD-diagnosed mother, journalist turned podcast producer, and advocate for a free Palestine.
Lucy & I delve into midlife experiences, discussing the challenges and weirdness of navigating the 'middle bit' of life, from peri-menopause and its symptoms, which can intersect with ADHD symptoms, to the adjustments in relationships and self-perception.
Lucy shares her late-in-life diagnosis of ADHD and autism, how it has reshaped her understanding of her needs and interactions and we ponder the societal pressures to achieve and conform, discussing the desire to want less and live a softer, more content life amidst messy midlife changes.
