How My ADHD Diagnosis Landed Me a Feature in Vogue!

It's a funny one...being in Vogue has never been on my bucket list. Of course, I do LOVE fashion but I wouldn't call myself a fashionista, style icon or influencer. And yet here I was being featured in Vogue!

This once-in-a-lifetime experience was actually because of a great friend of mine, who happens to be a journalist.

Being a former PR, I do love a good chat with a journalist - especially one who is a close friend. And when I was diagnosed with ADHD at the age of 40, she could see that this would make an interesting story.

So, she asked me lots of questions, as well as found other women who wanted to share their own ADHD diagnosis stories too. It turns out from the feedback she's had since, that this story and the awareness its created was very much needed - women have been unprecedentedly messaging her to tell her that they finally understand what they've been battling with their whole lives.
