Transforming ADHD Challenges into Strengths Using Positive Psychology

Welcome to the ADHD Women's Wellbeing Summer Series, where we're revisiting inspirational conversations from the subscription Toolkit Series.

On this week's Summer Toolkit episode, Kate is joined by Katherine Tiddy, a positive psychology practitioner, coach and founder of the Work Happy Project. Katherine shares how focusing on your strengths can lead to growth, resilience, and lasting wellbeing, especially for women with ADHD. From burnout to flourishing, she offers practical insights and empowering tools to help you reconnect with what lights you up and move forward with purpose.
