365. The BEST advice for managing ADHD in your 20s ft. Chris Wang

365. The BEST advice for managing ADHD in your 20s ft. Chris Wang

Getting diagnosed with ADHD as an adult can feel like both a relief and a reckoning. Suddenly your past makes so much more sense… but now you’re faced with learning a whole new way of managing your brain, your time, your relationships and your self-worth.

In this episode, I’m joined by Chris Wang, founder and CEO of Shimmer, who was diagnosed with ADHD at 28. Together we unpack what ADHD really looks like in your twenties, including:

  • The three ADHD subtypes and why women are so often missed
  • How late diagnosis can completely rewrite your identity (in a good way)
  • Why traditional productivity advice often fails ADHD brains
  • The role of urgency, novelty and accountability
  • What actually is rejection sensitivity dysphoria (RSD)?
  • What ADHD–ADHD relationships can look like vs ADHD–neurotypical dynamics?

If you’ve ever wondered, “Do I just suck at being an adult, or is my brain wired differently?”, this episode is for you.
