Fun, Failures and F**k Ups - Do what you LOVE and want to WORK hard for with Andrea McDowell

Join me for my new group coaching Ask Me Anything four-session programme beginning on 27th June - all details are here

When we finally understand how our ADHD can help us to succeed, we can lean into it. But it can feel so challenging when we're in the dark and have no idea why we keep hitting the same obstacles.

We discuss this on today's ADHD Women's Wellbeing Podcast with guest Andrea McDowell, who also says it sometimes involves winging it and pivoting, even when we're terrified we may fail. Andrea believes in saying yes, winging it and finding the team to help!

After closing her original business, Andrea poured her heart and soul into her garden to support her mental well-being and give her something to focus on during this time. This eventually became her next venture, Dahlia Beach—a Plant Your Own Flower Garden based in Oxfordshire.

During today's ADHD Women's Wellbeing Podcast episode, I chat with the inspiring Andrea all about:

  • Being a multi-passionate ADHD entrepreneur
  • Seeing gaps in the market
  • Owning our failures, why we shouldn't be afraid to fail and accepting the mistakes we make
  • Following our dreams with ADHD and harnessing our ADHD traits
  • Being a maverick and staying true to our convictions
  • Using hyper-focus to flourish and being brave in our choices
  • Discovering ADHD and Perimenopause
  • Using HRT to help her perimenopause symptoms
  • Admin breakdowns in business and finding people to help fill the gaps
  • Creating an ADHD-friendly business
