  • In this episode, Sam welcomes Bailey Pilant, a licensed mental health counselor and certified ADHD clinical therapist, to discuss the complex relationship between hormones, ADHD, and women’s mental health.

  • The science behind hormone cycles and their impact on executive functioning and ADHD symptoms.
  • How PCOS and other neuroendocrine disorders can complicate ADHD and mental health.
  • The importance of understanding the overlap between different conditions and why women’s health is often oversimplified or dismissed.
  • PMDD (Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder), its symptoms, and its connection to neurodivergence.
  • Practical strategies for cycle syncing: tracking hormones, adjusting routines, and building self-compassion.
  • The impact of societal messaging and marketing on women’s perceptions of their own health and productivity.
