Alrighty folks, welcome back to Season 1, Episode 2, "ADHD with Jonesy" on Transacting Value Podcast!

In this episode, Porter and Jonesy discuss Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). Jonesy has firsthand experience with the disorder. They discuss how you discuss your emotions or your perspective, the struggle to learn and focus, and reframing symptoms as strengths. If you have an attention deficit diagnosis or symptoms, or if you know someone who does, this is the place for you. 

Some takeaway ideas from today’s discussion:

• Getting distracted is a natural part of being human, but don’t use that as a crutch or an excuse. Put in some effort to focus on the task at hand. 
• Describing something to someone can never carry the same weight as them experiencing it for themselves.
• There is no opportunity for subconscious control of consciousness.
• Instead of labeling actions “impulsive,” what if we put a positive spin on it and called it “living in the moment”? 

Full disclosure, neither Porter nor Jonesy are licensed psychologists, psychiatrists, or psychotropic users. If you need legitimate medical advice, contact your doctor or online resources like Military One Source or CHADD for assistance.
