If not for my mother’s grasp. We all believed the same lore I wonder how long till the veil is lifted from all eyes. The dream dies slowly The truth eventually bears its ugly head. 3pm walking in the dark alone no one to hold my hand. I repeat well trained steps. Key in hand… lock the door behind yourself.

She's here to share her journey, from her late ADHD diagnosis to the ups and downs of not one, but two PhD journeys. Yep, you heard that right—two! From her humble beginnings studying history to her bold leap into the realm of code, Verity's career path was anything but straightforward. But boy, is it fascinating? Oh, and meds? Verity is not holding back on sharing her personal experiences. From the highs to the lows, she's giving us the real deal. But here's the best part: Verity's not just here to talk about the tough stuff. Nope, she's dishing out some seriously helpful tips for managing ADHD like a boss. Think clear instructions, killer communication skills, and most importantly, a big ol' dose of self-compassion. Verity's all about breaking down barriers for folks with disabilities and shining a light on ADHD awareness. Trust me, you won't want to miss this one! If Verity's story hits close to home and you're on the lookout for a little extra support with your ADHD journey, I'm here to lend an ear.

S2E5: Chanti - Thrills, Chills, and ADHD: A Writer's Journey
Hey there, folks! Welcome back to Wondering Zoe, where we get up close and personal with some seriously cool people. Today, we've got Chanti in the hot seat—a writer, event wizard, and all-around awesome human. She only found out about her ADHD later on, and the way she figured it out is downright hilarious! You've gotta hear this story! When chatting about her childhood, Chanti dropped this gem: "I was a total charmer as a kid, but let's be real, I was also a bit of a weirdo." She opened up about her ADHD journey from way back then till now. Back in the day, there was zilch support for neurodivergent students, and awareness? Forget about it! She had to navigate it all without much confidence in her abilities, no matter how awesome they were! It wasn't until Chanti stumbled into a creative writing course that her passion for storytelling truly ignited. Did Chanti jump straight into the writing gig after her college stint? Nope! Despite hitting up an arts college in the UK to fine-tune her writing chops, she had to hustle with a bunch of other jobs before she could really immerse herself in the writing world. Now, fast forward a bit, and Chanti's got some seriously killer novels under her belt—literally. She published Angel Manor (Lucifer Falls Book 1) and Doll Manor (Lucifer Falls Book 2) and other works. If you're into heart-pounding, edge-of-your-seat horror reads, Chanti's your gal. And hey, if you're itching to check out more of Chanti's work, head over to her website at https://www.chantalnoordeloos.com/ (https://www.chantalnoordeloos.com/) and prepare to be spooked! If Chanti's story hits close to home and you're on the lookout for a little extra support with your ADHD journey, I'm here to lend an ear. Shoot me a message at WonderingZoe0526@gmail.com, and let's chat. Remember, you're not alone, and together, we've got this.

S2E4: Veronica - Riding the ADHD Rollercoaster: A Mom's Odyssey through Academia
Meet Dr. Veronica Allen, an astronomy researcher, a mom, and the unofficial queen of chaos. In this rollercoaster ride of a story, Veronica spills the beans on the wild world of academia, parenting, and navigating life with ADHD. She's not just a scientist; she's a mom on a mission, fighting for her daughter in a school system that often feels like it's stuck in the Stone Age. But Veronica doesn't just stop at her daughter's battles—she takes us behind the scenes of her own academic escapades, where the pressure cooker of expectations meets the whirlwind of ADHD, all while donning the mom cape. Picture this: juggling research papers, mom duties, and ADHD quirks like a boss. Veronica's journey isn't a walk in the park; it's more like a sprint through a hurricane. But in the midst of the chaos, she's carving a path for herself and everyone else who doesn't quite fit the academic mold. Forget the fancy words and complicated narratives. This is Veronica's story—raw, real, and ridiculously relatable. Join us as we dive into the world of ADHD, academia, and everything in between. Spoiler alert: it's not always pretty, but it's one hell of a ride. (Admitting it outright: I turned to ChatGPT for this, and it reads surprisingly well.) Feel free to visit Veronica's website at https://www.astrochemistveronica.com/ (https://www.astrochemistveronica.com/) and get in touch with her through https://www.astrochemistveronica.com/contact (https://www.astrochemistveronica.com/contact).

S2E3: Will - Embrace your ADHD self to better interact with the world
Will is an Australian currently pursuing his Ph.D. in astrophysics in the Netherlands. Chatting with Will, I discovered that we share quite a few common quirks. Neither of us particularly enjoys the endless meetings that seem to go nowhere, and we find small talk to be a bit of a chore. Instead, we prefer diving into meaningful conversations on topics that genuinely pique our interest. However, unlike me, Will has a real passion for sports, and he's convinced that without regular physical activity, he'd likely go a little stir-crazy. In this episode, we delve into his diagnosis journey, his thoughts on ADHD medications, and his personal growth as someone living with ADHD. And, of course, we took a lighthearted detour to understand why people frequently feign intense attention when others are speaking, even when they're not truly engaged in the conversation. This episode was recorded while me traveling in Madrid, and Will was in Leiden. This episode marks the third installment of the second season of "Wondering Zoe." In this season, I've invited eight friends to share their love-hate relationship with ADHD. And for those of you who are new to the topic, tuning in to this season of my podcast can serve as an excellent starting point. I also want to extend an invitation. If you're looking for an ADHD coach to help you understand your symptoms and find ways to tackle challenges that suit you in your learning, work, relationships, and life, feel free to reach out to me at WonderingZoe0526@gmail.com (mailto:WonderingZoe0526@gmail.com).

S2E2: Martha - Now, go flourish!
Welcome to Season 2 of Wondering Zoe! This season is all about ADHD. In this episode, we're joined by Martha, a passionate entrepreneur and executive/academic coach who has a coaching practice called "Now Go Flourish (http://nowgoflourish.com)" . She is a mom, fitness, adventure and spiritual junkie who is deeply committed to her own personal growth and making a positive difference in other people’s lives. What truly intrigued me about Martha is that she was raised by an ADHD mom, and her childhood was pretty wild. But from a young age, Martha decided to chart a different course for herself. Even though she's on the spectrum herself, Martha is honestly one of the most organized people I've ever known. Now, she has a coaching practice to help others "go flourish". Martha specializes in coaching entrepreneurs, students, and young adults to develop the executive function skills they need to be successful while balancing work, education, families, extra-curricular activities, etc. AND having time for the things they love. She is a certified ACC coach through the Human Potential Institute and the International Coaching Federation, currently enhancing her credentials with the ADDCA (Accredited ADHD Coach Training Program). That's how we crossed paths, similar to how I met Claire in Season 2, Episode 1. Martha and her team provide individualized coaching based on client’s needs and goals. She partners with clients to clarify values/vision and plan, prioritize, and manage time for optimal efficiency and effectiveness. Her coaching program also includes strategies to meet the most audacious business or academic goals, and overall wellness objectives to increase focus, maximize productivity, tap into motivation, reduce stress, and increase self-esteem and self-efficacy. Martha asks powerful questions, challenges assumptions and partners with clients to provide tools, strategies, and accountability to truly flourish. If you're intrigued by Martha's coaching, she generously provides a complimentary 30-minute trial consultation. To schedule an appointment, simply visit her website (https://nowgoflourish.com/). And just to clarify, I'm not receiving any compensation from Martha for mentioning this :D About me Hi, I am Zoe Ye, a human being who failed to live a conventional life.

S2E1: Claire - Looking back on my life, I'm like a vegan trying to work in a butcher shop
Welcome to Season 2 of Wondering Zoe! This season is all about ADHD. If you don't know much about ADHD, tuning in to this season of my podcast can serve as an excellent starting point. I met Claire at an ADHD coach training course provided by ADDCA, and it was quite an experience. Most of the people in the course had endured their fair share of ADHD struggles. Often, within just a few minutes of the class starting, tears would start flowing, not just from the students but from the teacher too (who is an ADHDer herself). It's not really an exaggeration to say that most classes began and ended with tears. The symptoms of ADHD may not always be apparent during childhood, and they vary from person to person. Those who are diagnosed with ADHD as adults often have a pervasive feeling of "I seem to be different from others," but many times they can't quite pinpoint what exactly makes them different. Before receiving an ADHD diagnosis, many are diagnosed with conditions such as depression, anxiety, self-esteem problems, and social difficulties. However, the root causes of these issues may actually originate from ADHD. Without a deep understanding of the neuroscience, symptoms, and patterns of ADHD, treatment often focuses on addressing surface-level problems and fails to address the core issues. Our guest in this episode, Claire, discovered her ADHD recently. She finally found answers to the challenges that had plagued her since the age of five, giving her life a new direction. Claire had worked in the insurance industry for over twenty years, but it was never her true passion. Despite attempts to break free, she kept returning to square one. However, this time, she held firm to her resolve. She wanted to help fellow ADHDers like herself, to educate them about ADHD, and to guide them in finding their own ways to navigate self-discovery and life's challenges. Her mission is to help them discover their strengths and savor more of life's pleasures. Let's tune in to Claire's journey of living with ADHD and her discovery. Her storytelling is incredibly infectious, and it brought tears to my eyes several times during the interview. As we recorded this episode, I was in Paris, and she was in the UK. We completed the recording remotely. If you need an ADHD coach to help you understand your ADHD and find the best ways to study, work, love, and live, feel free to contact Claire at manipura1089@gmail.com. I appreciate your feedback on my podcast too! Feel free to reach out to me at WonderingZoe0526@gmail.com. Thank you! About me Hi, I am Zoe Ye, a human being who failed to live a conventional life.

S1E8: Avi - Four Countries, Two Sons, One Self
Today, we're joined by Avi, a mother of two, originally from Israel and currently living in the Netherlands. Her journey has taken her from Israel to Japan, the United States, back to Israel, and finally to the Netherlands. In our conversation, she shares her experiences, from the initial excitement of immersing herself in new cultures to the challenges of bureaucracy and healthcare abroad. In Japan, she navigated the subtleties of communication, learning that "maybe" can mean "no" in certain situations, a sharp contrast to the directness of her Israeli culture. She also shared her experience of giving birth to her first child in Japan. In the United States, Avi faced the challenges of adapting to cold winters while raising a child. She encountered difficulties in finding a job in her field, but her resilience eventually led her to a career change. Throughout her journey, she prefers to view these experiences as opportunities for personal and family growth rather than sacrifices. Did you enjoy Avi's episode? Get ready for more intrigue with Felicia's episode (https://www.buzzsprout.com/2196358/13357823) and Hiddo's episode (https://wonderingzoe.buzzsprout.com/2196358/13438528-s1e7-hiddo-from-netherlands-to-nippon-my-life-in-japan-through-a-dutch-lens) to learn more about their different experiences in Japan!

S1E7: Hiddo - From Netherlands to Nippon: My Life in Japan Through a Dutch Lens
Meet Hiddo, a Dutch astronomer who unexpectedly found himself living an adventure in Japan. Join him through his unique experiences: relishing the finest sake, enduring scorching summer mountain hikes (and surviving on streams in the mountains), challenging the cycling skills of the Japanese (very Dutch!!!), and discovering traces of Dutch heritage gracefully preserved in the charming city of Nagasaki. I pointed out that as a person standing at a towering height (perhaps almost 2 meters!) with a fair complexion, Hiddo easily stands out in the crowds of Japan. However, he seemed to have no trouble fitting into the new culture. Want to hear more? Check out this episode! Enjoyed Hiddo's episode? Get ready for more intrigue with Felicia's episode (https://www.buzzsprout.com/2196358/13357823).

Step into the world of Carmen, a Dutch-born Chinese whose life's intricacies unfurled long before she could fully grasp them. Amidst the cobblestone streets of her childhood and the corridors of her school, the weight of her ethnicity marked her, molding her responses and character in ways unseen. She also spent a year and a half in the UK, gaining insights into the cultural differences between the UK and the Netherlands. Currently, she is visiting her relatives in Hong Kong. The recording of this episode took place remotely, with me being in Helsinki.

S1E5: Felicia - Singaporean Finance to Dutch UX Design: Dare to Try, Dare to Thrive
Get ready for Felicia's incredible stories! During our chat, I constantly felt like I was at a fantastic stand-up comedy show (by the way, Felicia is considering doing stand-up). A finance graduate, language wizard, and talented UX designer, Felicia resides in the Netherlands but originally hails from Singapore. Her journey is extraordinary – it all started with an awe-inspiring backpacking adventure in Europe that sparked her thirst for more. She next embarked on a thrilling 5-month expedition across Asia! Her passion for Japan led her to work there, immersing herself in its delicate and sometimes dodgy (you'll have to hear her story about her first day at work in Japan!) culture. However, her adventurous spirit eventually led her to the Netherlands for a 180-degree career shift into User Experience Design. Felicia's ability to follow her heart and make her dreams come true is truly inspiring. Let's send her our best wishes as she continues to carve her unique path in life!
