ADHD for Smart Ass Women

An unprecedented guide for any woman with ADHD looking to celebrate her unique brilliance and to embark on a journey of self-discovery. ADHD is one of the most common neurological disor­ders in the United States—yet a staggering 75 percent of girls and women remain undiagnosed. Due to the gen­der gap in medical research, which does not account for symptoms manifesting differently in women—leading to increased problems with anxiety, depression, work­ing memory, sleep, energy, and concentration—many ADHD women are left to navigate a society that fails to understand their struggles and gifts. But what if every woman had the resources and support to uncover the hidden wonders of her neurodivergent brain? Enter certified ADHD coach and podcast host Tracy Otsuka.

In it, Otsuka offers an entirely new set of tools, systems, and strategies to improve executive function skills and to access a world of boundless productivity, focus, and confidence. With her signature wit and levity—in entertaining chapters ed for ADHD readers—Otsuka explores the unique challenges that ADHD women face, from emotional dysregulation to time management, and illuminates the extraordinary qualities that set them apart: overflowing creativity, laser-focused attention, deep empathy, and fearless entrepreneurial spirit.
