In this bonus episode, Katie reflects on Sam’s conversation with content creator Holly Morris, whose story explored what it really means to be labelled “away with the fairies.”

Together, Sam and Katie dig deeper into how language shapes the way women experience and understand ADHD. Katie opens up about her own school years- from masking and “hiding in plain sight” to the pressure of fitting into expectations that didn’t suit her ADHD at all.

They discuss the power of labels like “bossy”, “ditsy”, and “dreamer” and how phrases that seem harmless can shape self-esteem, identity, and even the way ADHD presents in girls and women.

It’s a thoughtful, personal follow-up to Holly’s episode, exploring how awareness starts with the words we use and why changing the language around ADHD in women matters more than we think.

New episodes of You're Wrong About ADHD are available every Wednesday and Friday. Got a question or story for the team? Send it to [email protected]
