As a kid growing up I always wondered what was wrong with me. No matter how hard I tried my efforts never translated to any form of academic success.
Diagnosed with ADHD (Inattentive Type) at age 30, I began taking prescribed medication and it was as if the fog had lifted and I was no longer sleepwalking through life. My brain had been woken from a 30-year nap. As the cylinders started moving and shaking the cobwebs off the pieces of the puzzle that were my life slowly started to come together. Things I was never able to achieve I could suddenly do with relative ease.
I went from the bottom of the class to the top, earning a Masters of Education degree in Counselling Psychology with a cumulative grade point average of 3.8 from the University of New Brunswick in 2011.
This story is as important for me to share as it is for you to hear. ADHD isn’t what’s wrong with me; it’s what is right with me. Understanding my thought process has not only improved my life in every regard but has also made it possible for me to help others understand that this isn’t the end but merely the beginning.
I share my experience and expertise as someone who self-identifies as having Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder and a Canadian Certified Counsellor through one on one counselling sessions, family counselling, coaching for business owners and employees, keynote and public speaking engagements.
