In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Sarah Oreck, co-founder and CEO of Mavida Health, to discuss the importance of maternal mental health care and, specifically, all things ADHD. Dr. Sarah shares what Mavida Health does and why they are filling a gap in the mental health space, why ADHD is a big part of their support platform, and how ADHD is often misunderstood, starting in childhood. She shares lifestyle techniques to help work with ADHD symptoms, why it seems like so many mothers are struggling with ADHD right now, and why it’s so important to know how your hormones affect both your physical and mental health. We talk about executive functioning and why it’s so important, how to communicate your mental health needs to your partner, and why task paralysis happens. Finally, she discusses the relationship between ADHD and overstimulation, and the struggle of being jealous of people we perceive as “making it work” better than we are.

Key Takeaway / Points:

  • What is Mavida Health and what do they do for maternal mental health?
  • How ADHD is often dealt with in childhood and misunderstood
  • On the differences between ADD and ADHD
  • Where I am with my ADHD right now and why I’m ready to go on medication
  • On lifestyle techniques to help work with ADHD
  • Why it seems like so many mothers are struggling with ADHD right now
  • On knowing your own body and being aware of how your hormones affect your mental and physical health

  • How to communicate your mental health needs to your partner
  • On task paralysis and why it happens
  • On the relationship between ADHD and overstimulation
  • On being jealous of people we perceive are “making it work” better than we are
