In this episode of More Yourself, I wanted to share a clip from a recent ADHD Women's Wellbeing live session that explored the concept of generativity versus stagnation —a theme that is very prevalent among late-diagnosed ADHD women.
This concept, rooted in Erik Erikson’s psychosocial development theory, invites us to reflect on how we create meaning and contribute to our own lives and to others as we move through the different stages of adulthood. For those of us who received a diagnosis later in life, this understanding can be transformative. It reminds us that our diagnosis isn’t the end, it’s the beginning of a new chapter.
My new book, The ADHD Women's Wellbeing Toolkit, is now available, grab your copy here!
What I discuss:
- Erikson’s 8 stages of psychosocial development viewed through a neurodivergent lens.
- The impact of unconscious masking on ADHD traits and energy levels.
- The concept of generativity vs. stagnation for late-diagnosed ADHD women.
- Seeing a late diagnosis as a new chapter for authenticity and evolution.
- The role of meaningful connection in women's reconnection with their identity post-diagnosis.
- The power of embracing change in midlife and beyond.
