The event drew over 200 registrations, far exceeding initial expectations. Hardy-Jones admitted, "I honestly thought it'd be amazing if we could get maybe 20 women. It really shows the complete lack of support and groups out there."
Throughout the session, webinar attendees shared their experiences of living with ADHD, highlighting common struggles that often go unnoticed. Time management issues, difficulty regulating emotions, and a tendency to overshare were recurring themes. These challenges often lead to feelings of isolation and misunderstanding in both personal and professional settings.
McGuinness shared a relatable story about school enrolment: "I was like, cool, my kids will go to the new school. So over the summer break, I went and bought them the school uniform and I did all the things, got organised and then I took the school on Monday morning and they were like, who are these children? You haven't even enrolled."
What made this webinar unique wasn't just the information shared, but the visible relief as attendees realised they weren't alone in their struggles. One attendee shared, "I'm feeling emotional about all the things that I struggle with, knowing I'm not alone."
Another remarked, "This is the first webinar I've ever spoken in - in my 6 years of webinar-ing!"
The hosts and attendees discussed various coping strategies, from using timers and creating visual reminders to exploring medication options. However, the main takeaway was the need for ongoing support and connection with others who understand the unique challenges of ADHD.
