In today’s episode, I talk to a genuine trailblazer - Dr. Larry Jones.

Dr. Jones is a retired pediatrician who won CHADD’s Lifetime Achievement Award in 2022. He is the founder of the 501(c)3 nonprofit Enable Tables, and the co-author of “Falling Through the Ceiling: Our ADHD Family Memoir", both with his wife Audrey.

Dr. Jones shares his road to becoming a doctor as a black man in the 1970s. With the support of his family and community, he graduated both undergrad and medical school at Johns Hopkins, and became a pediatrician all while navigating the challenges of undiagnosed ADHD and the institutionalized racism of the 1970s. He shares insights into the importance of community and lessons he’s learned as both a father and a pediatrician, and discusses his company Enable Tables, which teaches parents and educators how to support, motivate, and instruct ADHD children to perform in well in school and live stable, productive, resilient lives.
