The Motherkind Podcast

Is it ADHD or is it the mental load? With Dr Samantha Hiew

48 min • 1 juni 2023

So many of our Motherkind community are being diagnosed with ADHD, wondering if they have ADHD or may be curious about it. I asked Dr Samantha Hiew, a leading voice and expert on ADHD for women, who was diagnosed herself aged 40 right after the birth of her second child. 


We talk about: 

  • Why there is a huge rise in ADHD diagnoses in women 
  • What are the characteristics of ADHD for women
  • How does ADHD intersect with Motherhood 


But most importantly… I ask her whether it’s neurodivergence or the stress of carrying the mental load of motherhood.
