Finding our voice and releasing shame after an ADHD diagnosis

"Once you know you're never going to be the one-lane woman, you're alright with it."

TW - Kate and Natalie do talk about some aspects of sexual trauma during this episode.

This week’s guest is Natalie Lee, best known for her Instagram account Style Me Sunday.  Natalie began her career as a midwife before starting her fashion blog, Style Me Sunday, in July 2012. Over nearly a decade, it has grown and evolved to so much more than fashion - she helps women overcome their own struggles and now has over 100k followers on Instagram. She is soon-to-be a published author and her book Feeling Myself about shedding sexual shame and finding freedom will be available to purchase this summer.

During this episode, Kate and Natalie speak about:

  • The desire to be more authentic and honest
  • How ADHD affects our memory and executive functioning and the impact this has on our self-esteem and social connections
  • How ADHD impacts our relationships and friendships
  • Parenting as an ADHD adult and the layers of shame
  • Getting bored and feeling restricted in our careers
  • Being intuitive with your career and weaving in your many interests
  • Understanding the masking of our challenges
  • Using Instagram as a platform to discuss ADHD
  • Why Natalie wanted to write a book about finding sexual freedom and shedding - and processing - sexual shame
  • ADHD and sexual trauma - and using somatic therapy to help release old trauma
  • Figuring out why we feel disconnected or dissociated from our old traumas
  • Changing the narrative around old stigmas of ADHD
  • How Natalie looks after her own wellbeing, which includes taking time out, proper breaks and journalling
