If you’ve ever wondered why your daughter seems to struggle quietly while excelling on the surface - or if you’re reflecting on your own experiences as a neurodivergent mum - this episode is for you.
I’m joined by Millie Carr, a passionate educator, author, and mum of three, to unpack the subtle and often misunderstood ways ADHD and autism show up in girls. With lived experience as part of a neurodivergent family, Millie shares her insights on recognising masking, perfectionism, and other traits that can make it harder for girls to be diagnosed or supported.
This episode is here to give you practical tips and validation - whether you’re advocating for your child, yourself, or both.
In this episode:
- The unique ways ADHD and autism present in girls and why they’re often overlooked.
- How masking and perfectionism can make neurodivergent traits harder to recognise.
- Practical tips for navigating the diagnosis process and advocating effectively.
- Reframing ADHD and autism as strengths and building confidence in neurodivergent kids.
Important Resources:
- Learn more about Millie’s work at https://milliecarrbooks.com
- Explore my self-assessment tool for ADHD and Autism
- When and where to seek a diagnosis for your child - eGuide here
