Failing at Normal: An ADHD Success Story

Before we go any further, listen to Jessica McCabe tell us her life story. Once a gifted child with a bright future, she later lived a life of constant failures because of one thing – her ADHD diagnosis. She realized that she was not alone until one thing changed everything. Her YouTube channel, How to ADHD, is dedicated to helping not only people with ADHD, but also their caregivers and teachers, and reminding them that they are not alone.

As you listen to Jessica, consider not only her struggles, but also her successes. What strengths and positive attributes do you notice she has?
