Hello Brains & Hearts!
Happy summer! Hope you’ve got some fun plans. We definitely do…Jessica is going to be back full time starting July 1st, and we’ve extended production days to a full 12 hours so we’ll have plenty of time to play and make fun content (did you know it’s possible at many jobs to adjust your work hours to be more ADHD friendly? Whether that means starting later, or having some workdays be shorter so you don’t have to focus as long, and some be longer so you have time to get into flow – this and more accommodations at askjan.org!) We’ve got a LOT of new content we’re excited about, including an episode with Caroline Maguire, expert on ADHD & friendship, involving adorable puppets having awkward conversations. Stay tuuuuned…

We had a fun poll this month, and you got to pick what puppet style we’ll use for an upcoming video! Thank you so much to all of you who took part in the poll. It was a close race, but in the end, you chose Traditional Socks Puppets! We’re so excited and can’t wait for you to see them!

2024 Annual International ADHD Conference | November 14 - 16
Anaheim, CA | Click here to buy tickets.
Every year ACO, ADDA, and CHADD put on a conference to bring together the best of the best in ADHD research, treatment, and strategies. Early bird registration is now open! We have not yet been able to get a community discount link, but we are still looking into it. 🤞If you want to hold off on buying tickets for now, we’ll let you know one way or another what the answer is as soon as we hear back.
We had fun doing some video shoots with Caroline and her daughter. Be on the lookout for those videos in the coming month!
We’ve been working with several international publishers to get different translations of our book out into the world. We'll share more about that as we get closer to publish dates!
Jessica did a podcast with Rachel Hollis on her show! We’ll share links as soon as it’s been released!
Thanks to your support, Jessica has been able to continue working part-time this month so she can bond with her new baby.

Second this! In my European context it seems like a quick return to work. I hope this come from a place of wanting to produce videos again, rather than feeling obligated

This is very exciting but... will Jessica be okay jumping back in to full days so quickly? My Johnny (now 11) struggled so much his first year and I nearly burned myself out. I'm sorry to ask this. I want more content but I want Jessica feeling good and happy so much more. She's so precious and kind, and her mental health is so very important to all of us.

CHADD as an organization makes me extraordinarily uncomfortable for a variety of reasons, including (but not limited to) their continued insistence on splashing puzzle pieces across any information they disseminate regarding the autistic neurotype. Normally, I would jump at the chance to bond and network with my ADHD and AuDHD neurokin in person, but I’ll have to sit out any event hosted or funded by CHADD.
