How To Ask For Help At Work and Reduce Burnout with Leanne Maskell

If you're currently feeling overwhelmed and burnt out, join me for a new live workshop on Friday, 24th May, at 1 p.m. All details are here.

On today's ADHD Women's Wellbeing 'Wisdom' we have the incredible Leanne Maskell. Leanne is an ADHD coach, author, and activist, having presented to the World Health Organization on improving global access to support for ADHD. 

Previously working in mental health and disability law, Leanne set up ADHD Works to empower as many people as possible to learn how to make ADHD work for them through courses, talks, and coaching. After being diagnosed with ADHD aged 25, Leanne published three books, including ‘ADHD: an A to Z’.

During today's conversation, Kate and Leanne talk about

• Advocating for adjustments in the workplace
• Masking ADHD in the workplace
• Talking about your ADHD diagnosis at work
• Reasonable diversity adjustments, training and policies in the workplace
• Corporate neurodiversity
• Celebrating achievements alongside RSD
• Knowing our rights within the workplace
• Leanne's books, coaching and courses
• Burnout and our ADHD brains
• Advocacy and our sense of social justice
• How Leanne changed her relationship with social media
• The power of ADHD coaching

Also my new four-part workshop series, Regulating Your ADHD Nervous System, is available here.
