When ADHD world expert, Dr Ned Hallowell told me he also constantly worries and catastrophises, I breathed a sigh of relief. "I'm not alone," I thought, listening intently to how he combats his incessant ADHD imagination!

On today's short episode, I'm delighted to welcome back the incredible ADHD world expert Dr Edward Hallowell, a board-certified child and adult psychiatrist, to the ADHD Women's Wellbeing Podcast for our second episode together.

Not only is Dr Ned an ADHD leader, but he's also a diagnosed patient, and he has dedicated his whole career to empowering and supporting people with ADHD. He's passionate about helping neurodivergent patients thrive and develop in life with new awareness, tools and strategies. He has written a new book, ADHD Explained, which can be bought here.

He has spent the past four decades helping thousands of adults and children live happy and productive lives through his strength-based approach to neurodiversity and has ADHD and dyslexia.

During this ADHD Women's Wellbeing Podcast episode, Kate and Dr Hallowell speak about:

• Dr Ned's newest book - ADHD Explained
• The Default Mode Network, ADHD and learning to switch channels
• The TPN and creativity
• Holding our attention well enough to hold the TPN

Today we have Dr. Jordan Peterson on the podcast. Dr. Peterson has taught mythology to lawyers, doctors and business people, consulted for the UN Secretary General, helped his clinical clients manage depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder, anxiety, and schizophrenia, served as an adviser to senior partners of major Canadian law firms, and lectured extensively in North America and Europe. With his students and colleagues at Harvard and the University of Toronto, Dr. Peterson has published over a hundred scientific papers. Dr. Peterson is also author of two books: Maps of Meaning: The Architecture of Belief and 12 Rules for Life: An Antidote to Chaos, which is a #1 bestseller.

In this wide-ranging conversation we discuss the following topics:

– Why “learned irrelevance” is incredibly important

– Why creativity requires keeping a childlike wonder

– How hallucinogens clear the “doors of perception”

– The “shared vulnerability” model of the creativity-mental illness connection

– The neuroscience of openness to experience

– The personality of personal correctness

– The practical implications of gender differences

– The function of the state in helping to make sure there is equality of individual expression

– How agreeableness and conscientiousness orient us differently in the social world

– The difference between pathological altruism and genuine compassion

– The link between pathological altruism and vulnerable narcissism

– The difference between responsibility and culpability

– How to help people take responsibility and make their lives better
