PRIMED for ADHD Podcast with Andrea Toole
If you’re a woman in midlife with ADHD, you’re in the right place.
This podcast will inform you, challenge the way you see yourself and your brain, and remind you that ADHD doesn’t have to control your life.
As a coach, I believe in practical, personalized action.
Through my PRIMED™ framework, I help my clients create strategies that are meaningful, realistic, and sustainable.
While I often speak directly to high-achieving women in midlife, the insights and tools I share are relevant for adults with ADHD at every stage of life.
Because ADHD isn’t about doing more, it’s about building a life for your racing brain, not against it, so it’s easier to be accountable.
As an ADHD coach and educator, I help women take charge of their ADHD, instead of feeling like it’s running the show.
I help women who are ready to stop using ADHD as an excuse. It’s a reason, not an excuse.

Do you have anxiety with your ADHD? Do you engage in high-risk activities or enjoy frightening things? As someone diagnosed with both ADHD and generalized anxiety, one with an aversion to risk, an empath, I don't understand. I understand the neurochemical process involved, but I also don't understand it from a practical perspective.
In this episode, I discuss ADHD in the context of anxiety and high-risk activities and the enjoyment of being spooked.
