Adult ADHD ADD Tips and Support Podcast – Our Seven Year Anniversary! This podcast is an audio companion to the book “The Drummer and the Great Mountain – A Guidebook to Transforming Adult ADD / ADHD.”

In this episode, we will be celebrating the seven year anniversary of the publication of “The Drummer and the Great Mountain.” We will be reflecting on some of the core motivations for writing the book, what were the main influences, who were the key players involved in bringing the book to a wider audience, how our community (and the ADHD community at large) has evolved over the last seven years, and where we’re going with the podcast and our work as we move forward.

Onward!
