I enjoyed this book. As an adult woman who is not diagnosed, this book was pretty helpful and insightful. Will be reading it again and recommending it to friends and family.

This book is great for anyone with ADHD. It has really helped me step back and see how I treat myself and how to live with ADHD in a more positive light.

A nice read for someone who is newly diagnosed, probably good for someone in their late twenties or early thirties. I’m glad I read this, I think it has shifted my perspective on a how I treat myself. And it has motivated me to try some new things! Would recommend to a newly diagnosed adhd woman.

Well written, informative and provided a lot of actionable intelligence and ideas for me to implement in my daily life.

As someone newly diagnosed with ADHD, I thought there were a lot of helpful tips and interesting information in this book. I'll definitely be going back to further explore some of her insights and suggestions.

This was a bit of a mixed bag for me.

The good:
* Spoke well to the "female" experience of having neurodivergence- as a parent with an AFAB child with classic AuDHD symptoms who is dismissed because they mask/perform just fine, this will be enlightening and affirming for many.
* The tips were helpful and well researched. It wasn't just "eat well, workout" in the generic sense, but in a "here is how to keep your struggling body on track" kind of way.

The not-as-good:
* A little bit fatphobic?- I can't say the author openly linked weight to health and happiness, but the hyper-focus on how training/shaping/maintaining her body really helped felt like there were some worrisome undertones there.
* A bit out of touch-while all these recommendations were solid, this feel very "conventionally attractive white woman discovers self-care" and didn't necessarily get into options for those who don't have access to grocery stores, therapists, gyms, free time etc. "Just wander the world and find yourself" isn't really advice that is useful to most of us.

Overall, this is a good introduction to the basics that can help people with ADHD, especially those who are femme-presenting. However, the implementation described in this book might not be super accessible.

I need to thank you the author. As a woman I don't think there is enough awareness for us about ADHD. Is always "You are hormonal" and never "hey is because your brain is just different" . Thank you for giving me what I needed. Thank you.

Overall this was a solid read. It is a great beginner book for someone new to learning about ADHD but also had a lot of tips for someone who has been diagnosed for many years looking for more help. It got a little tedious talking about food and dietary options but the tips about staying regulated were very helpful at the end.
