Ep 172. All About ADHD with Jess from I am Paying Attention

Join this FREE Anxiety Masterclass at https://calmer-you.com/anxiety


Jess Joy is one half of, and co-founder of I Am Paying Attention. Jess and her best friend and now business partner, Charlotte Mia, created the community-led ADHD + Autism platform a little over a year ago after supporting each other as they began their neurodivergent journeys. They’ve been raising awareness about the reality of what it’s like to be late-diagnosed since.


We discuss:

  • Jess' story of being diagnosed with ADHD during the pandemic
  • The signs of ADHD and how they show up in women
  • How ADHA is linked with anxiety
  • Practical things that can help
