✨ The countdown is on! Only 3 days to go! ✨

Our meeting is just around the corner, and we are tackling one of the most heavy, pervasive feelings in the ADHD experience: the gap between wanting to do something and actually doing it. 🧠⚡

If you’ve ever beat yourself up for "procrastinating" or felt the heavy weight of being called "lazy," this workshop is for you. We’re diving deep into the science of emotional regulation, unpacking why our brains stall out, and learning how to replace shame with actionable self-compassion.

Come as you are. You aren't lazy, and you don’t have to figure this out alone. 💛

Our next meeting is just around the corner, and we are diving into a topic that so many of us have been curious about, or quietly wondering about for years: ADHD, Autism & AuDHD 🧩✨

For many women, an ADHD diagnosis is just the beginning of the story. Questions like "could I also be autistic?" or "why do I still feel like something is missing?" are more common in our community than you might think. This month, we are creating a space to explore what ADHD, autism, and AuDHD actually look like in women, how they overlap, how they differ, and why so many of us go unrecognized for so long.

Whether you are newly curious, recently diagnosed, or simply want to understand yourself a little better, this conversation is for you.

☀️ OFFICIAL SUMMER BREAK NOTICE! ☀️

Hey WHams! 🌸

Just a quick heads-up that our Women's ADHD Support Group is officially on summer break to rest, recharge, and practice some of that much-needed self-care.
📌 When do we return? We will be back and ready to connect on Wednesday, September 16th!

🍦 Want to hang out this summer? Just because our official meetings are on pause doesn't mean the community has to be! If anyone feels inspired to host a casual meetup, a coffee date, or a virtual co-working/body-doubling session over the break, please feel free to post it here in the group and invite everyone!

We are so grateful for this incredible community. Keep an eye on the group over the break, and stay tuned for more updates as we get closer to September.
Wishing you all a wonderful, low-stress, and dopamine-filled summer! Take things one day at a time. 💜

P.S. Go ahead and put September 16th in your calendar right now before your brain deletes this post! 🗓️⚡️

✨ The countdown is on! Only 3 days to go! ✨

Our June meeting is just around the corner, and we are diving into a topic that hits close to home for so many of us: "Retelling Your Story." 📖✨

Living with ADHD often means carrying around old narratives—stories about being "lazy," "forgetful," or "not living up to your potential." This Wednesday, we are creating a safe space to unpack those old labels, reframe our past struggles with a lens of self-compassion, and start writing a new narrative that actually fits who we are today.

Whether you were diagnosed late in life or are just looking to shift your mindset, this workshop is for you.

Come as you are. Your story matters, and you don’t have to write the next chapter alone. 💛

✨ Our June meeting is just one week away! ✨

Do you still feel like the awkward, out-of-place "odd one out"? You aren't stuck in that old narrative forever—you might be experiencing "Ugly Duckling Syndrome."

Feeling trapped by old stories heavily impacts our self-esteem and peace. This month, we are honored to welcome Hamilton-based Psychotherapist Key Straughan (they/them) to help us dive into "Retelling Your Story."

Key combines a background in education with evidence-based therapies like Internal Family Systems (IFS) and Reality Therapy. They specialize in providing a highly practical, neurodivergent-informed, and LGBTQ2S+-affirming space. Key’s approach focuses on what you can control, breaking stagnant patterns, and building actionable strategies that actually fit your unique brain and life.

Next week, Key will guide us through why these deep-seated feelings of being "different" persist, and how to gently rewrite our narratives with self-compassion, clarity, and confidence.

Our May meeting is just around the corner, and we’re preparing for a deep dive into ADHD and Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria (RSD). 🧠🩹

If you’ve ever felt paralyzed by the fear of failure or found yourself overthinking a conversation for days, this workshop with Alexandra Myers is for you. We’ll be moving past the "why" and looking at practical, therapeutic strategies to help you navigate these intense emotions and reclaim your peace of mind.

✨ Our May meeting is less than one week away! ✨

Do you ever feel an overwhelming, almost physical sting from a perceived slight or a small piece of feedback? You aren’t "too sensitive"—you might be experiencing Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria (RSD). 🧠🫀

RSD is one of the most intense, yet least talked about, parts of the ADHD experience. This month, we are thrilled to welcome back Alexandra Myers! Following her fantastic December session on Emotional Regulation, Alexandra is returning to dive deep into RSD, helping us make sense of the intense emotional responses that come with ADHD.

This Wednesday, we are joined by an expert pharmacist from the Hamilton Family Health Team (HFHT).
