From Masking to Meaning: ADHD, Autism, and the Truth About Neurodivergent Minds

What does it actually mean to have ADHD? What is masking — and what does it cost? And why might your anxiety or depression be a symptom of something deeper? In this episode, Andrew unpacks why ADHD isn't a deficit of attention but a difference in how attention works, what it really costs autistic people to appear "fine" at work every day, and why forcing a reluctant child into therapy can close the door for years. Whether you're navigating a diagnosis, supporting someone who is, or simply trying to understand your own brain better — this conversation will change how you see yourself and the people around you.
