An ADHD coach on burnout (Jaye Lin’s story)  
Podcast: ADHD Aha!
Published On: Tue Apr 16 2024
Description: ADHD coach Jaye Lin is no stranger to ADHD burnout. As an Asian American former gifted kid with undiagnosed ADHD, her parents thought she was just being lazy and not applying herself. This pressure and shame followed until her 30s, when her anxiety peaked while she was working at a high-pressure job.  Jaye’s therapist thought she was drug-seeking when she wanted to be screened for ADHD. Now, Jaye builds communities and helps others prioritize what’s important when tunnel vision takes over our lives.  To get a transcript of this show and check out more episodes, visit the “ADHD Aha!” podcast page at Understood.We love hearing from our listeners.
