S5 E21 - Untangling ADHD: Medication & Holistic Treatments with Joseph Pack

Is ADHD medication right for me?
Do I have to take it every single day?
Am I a failure if I decide to stop?

These are the questions so many of us quietly carry around — and in this episode, I sit down with Joseph Pack, founder of Drug Free ADHD, to bring them out into the open.

Together, we untangle:


🧡 The hidden risks of long-term medication — from sleep disruption to chronic illness.
🧡 The shame stories around starting, stopping, or changing meds (and why none of it means failure).
🧡 Heart rate variability (HRV) as a simple way to see how your body is really coping.
🧡 Why “one-size-fits-all” ADHD care is dangerous — and what a personalised approach can look like.
🧡 The power of lived experience over textbook answers — and why sometimes, you’ve just got to “make it exist first.”

This isn’t about being pro- or anti-medication. It’s about real talk, no judgement, and giving you the knowledge and permission to make informed choices that actually work for your life.

ADHD COACHING

IT’S TIME TO TURN YOUR ADHD STRUGGLES INTO STRENGTHS AND SHOW UP IN THE WAY YOU WERE ALWAYS MEANT TO!


Have you ever felt the need to change who you are in order to fit in?

me too!

And I’ve spent so many years hectically running around this world trying to be everything and everyone else but my true myself

Party girl, house wife, rebel, addict, yogi…. To name a few

Hoping that eventually, something would work and something would fix me and make me normal…

None of it ever did.

But two things in my life that have allowed me to live a more meaningful and authentic life and that is Yoga & My ADHD Diagnosis, which is why I am on a Mission to support as many individuals with ADHD to turn their struggle into strength with ADHD through Movement & ADHD Coaching.
