Tired of ADHD strategies that don’t work? Here’s what actually does. FREE training here : https://programs.tracyotsuka.com/signup ___ Join Tracy as she welcomes guest Isabelle Baker to Episode 92 of her podcast ADHD for Smart Ass Women . Tracy interviewed Isabelle as one of four students who completed her Your ADHD Brain is A-OK! program. That episode aired last week, but Tracy didn’t include Isabelle because she felt that Isabelle needed her own episode. In this episode, Isabelle talks about trauma, never fitting in, giving up, and thinking it was too late for her because she was too old. She also talks about A-OK! and ultimately falling in love with her ADHD brain. Isabelle Baker is from Lakeland, FL. With over 25 years of experience in business development, C-suite partnerships, and enterprise training, Isabelle is now her own CEO. Today, she combines her professional experiences with her love of problem-solving, listening to understand, and relentlessness to serve her clients, whom she loves to see succeed. Some of her best successes are personal: she is passionate about helping children in the foster care system and looks forward to being a coach to those who age out. Isabelle shares her childhood trauma, her struggles with school and social problems, and always feeling different. She discusses her discovery of ADHD, her experience going through the A-OK! Program, and her newfound love and appreciation of her ADHD gifts. Isabelle reveals the key to living successfully with a non-linear brain and her number one workaround.
