Ep. 25 - Guest ADHD Expert, Brooke Schnittman

Brooke Schnittman went from being a Middle and Elementary School Administrator, (at my alma matter Jericho high school:), to helping others understand the dynamics of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), a coaching business for ADHD'ers called Coaching with Brooke (CWB).   A graduate of Penn State and NYU grad school, Brooke Schnittman worked her ass off and is still turning out great content with a large social media following.   She realized the school system needed more help and she became an ADHD coach, to realize later at the age of 35 she too had ADHD and so does the majority of her blended family. How does she address her journey? Medication? Diagnosis? Ongoing support? Medicating family members and herself  through the Adderall Shortage?!?!    She discusses her earlier experience with a diagnosis of generalized anxiety disorder and how she dealt with bullying through her ADHD diagnosis, by way of her auditory processing disorder.   My questions about concerns for tolerance levels and getting addicted vs the benefits....in addition to some more shared Brooke Statistics and the fact that ....   PILLS DON'T TEACH SKILLS!!!!   Esteem and Behaviors are always an important component!   Listen up as Brooke shares her stories of Coaching with Brooke!   @coachingwithbrooke on Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, and TikTok www.coachingwithbrooke.com [http://www.coachingwithbrooke.com/]   Contact Jamie https://lightswitchlearning.com/product/bridging-the-gap-between-school-and-home/ jamie@teamesteemmethod.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamielevine8/ https://www.instagram.com/teamesteem_/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/team-esteem-llc/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jamieblevine https://www.facebook.com/TeamEsteemLLC YouTube https://m.youtube.com/channel/UCsK7ONq0Oph1AGTq9tDWHJw Websites: www.teamesteemmethod.com www.jamielevinemsed.com Resources: https://childmind.org/article/one-on-one-help-in-the-classroom/

Ep. 24 - Rhiannon Richards, a social media expert for Coaching with Brooke (an ADHD coaching business) discusses her late Autism diagnosis at the age of 24.

Rhianonnon Richards and I met in an awkward round about social media type of way and I gladly welcomed her to Mom Esteem ! Listen up as Rhiannon candidly speaks out about her social struggles, like when she realized she was "a little off" and the masking she would do to fit in at school. Feeling like the 3rd wheel, trying to fit in. Figuring out how to interrupt and jump into a sentence. It's a skill! Who knew:) How her mom was always there for her. She describes the difference between neurotypical and neurodiverse and the different thinking tendencies behind that. How we express empathy differently,  misunderstandings . The difference between being honest and open vs undertones of sarcasm and communication nuances. My own social media fears, posting and imposter syndrome. The perfectionist fear that's holding me back! OUCH! Listen up on how her social media posts are helping people... Putting terms out there to be researched  Her most popular "Getting out of bed" post!  How her love for graphic design and ADHD coaching worksheets led her to take over the Coaching with Brooke social media title.  Interesting  ADHD symptom tests - Adapted from an official diagnoses test and her boyfriend, ADHD counterpart!  Being able to affect people, POSITIVELY, with her wide reach through social media posts! Our common struggles .... Of how getting a diagnosis makes you feel "less shameful" in addition to how it  "Helps to approach things differently"  And how meds keep you more sedated...essentially,  more real talk!   Contact Jamie https://lightswitchlearning.com/product/bridging-the-gap-between-school-and-home/ jamie@teamesteemmethod.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamielevine8/ https://www.instagram.com/teamesteem_/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/team-esteem-llc/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jamieblevine https://www.facebook.com/TeamEsteemLLC YouTube https://m.youtube.com/channel/UCsK7ONq0Oph1AGTq9tDWHJw Websites: www.teamesteemmethod.com www.jamielevinemsed.com Resources: https://childmind.org/article/one-on-one-help-in-the-classroom/
