Book Review: "The Extraordinaries" by TJ Klune

Hello my beloveds. I'm here to let you know that The ADHD Manual Podcast is going on hiatus. 

I have simply too many ideas that I want to develop, so the pod is taking a break while I work on breathing new life into TAM. I will be back with public updates on November 16th at the latest!

Today I'm here with something different: a listener interviews me about time blindness/time perception differences in ADHD and how loved ones can support ADHDers struggling with it.

Thank you for joining me Laura!
