Doors to the Membership are now open! (10-17 June 2025) - JOIN TODAY: www.navigatingadultadhd.com/membershipIn this episode, we’re talking all about ADHD medication: how to know if it’s working, what the different types are, what to look out for (both the good and the not-so-good), and what to do if you’re not sure it’s the right fit.We’ll cover: • The 3 main types of ADHD meds • Signs your medication is helping (and what’s totally normal in the beginning) • Common red flags that mean it might not be the right one for you • Why meds can help — but aren’t the full solution💛 Important Reminder: ADHD medication is just one tool — it doesn’t build the emotional regulation, mindset shifts, or systems we need to truly thrive.That’s why I created the Navigating Adult ADHD Membership — and doors are OPEN this week only!Inside the membership, we focus on the things meds can’t do: 🧠 Emotional regulation 💬 Self-coaching & mindset ✨ ADHD-friendly strategies that actually work (even when motivation doesn’t)If you’re ready to stop trying to figure this out alone — and want support, structure, and community to help you feel better and move forward — this is your moment.➡️ Join us at www.navigatingadultadhd.com/membership before doors close Tuesday, June 17th.
