In part two of our three-part ADHD series, Jackie is joined again by ADHD coach and I Have ADHD podcast host Kristen Carder to talk about something a lot of grown-ass women are quietly wondering about: treatment.

In the first episode, we unpacked how ADHD actually shows up in women—and why it’s so often missed or confused with things like perimenopause, burnout, or major life transitions. In this episode, we go deeper into what helps once you start asking, Okay… now what?

We talk about ADHD medication—who it might help, who might not need it, and what it really looks like in real life—along with non-medication options like exercise, therapy, and coaching. We also break down the differences between therapy and coaching, why trauma-informed care matters, and what questions to ask so you can find support that actually fits your brain and your life.

This conversation is not medical advice, and it’s not here to diagnose you or anyone you love. It is here to help you understand your options so you can make more informed, empowered decisions.

If you’ve ever wondered whether ADHD treatment could make life feel less overwhelming—or you’re trying to support a child, partner, or friend—this episode will help you see the landscape more clearly.

Up next: In the final episode of this series, we talk about ADHD, anxiety, and depression—because the symptoms can overlap in confusing ways. How do you know what’s really going on?
