ADHD AF

Laura Mears-Reynolds was diagnosed with ADHD later in life and responded by becoming an activist, building a community she calls the Leopard Print Army, and launching a podcast that's equal parts education, validation, and advocacy. ADHD AF doesn't just talk about managing symptoms -- it pushes for systemic change in how ADHD is understood, diagnosed, and supported. The show mixes solo episodes where Laura shares personal reflections with interview conversations featuring guests like fellow advocates, charity team members, and ADHD professionals. Episodes range from quick 15-minute rambles to deep-dive conversations running over 90 minutes, with most settling between 40 and 75 minutes. New episodes land weekly with occasional bonus drops. With 169 episodes and a 4.7-star rating from 53 reviews, the podcast has carved out a distinct space in the ADHD world. The tone is unapologetically personal and political. Laura doesn't shy away from discussing the systemic barriers that make ADHD harder than it needs to be -- long diagnostic waitlists, workplace discrimination, gender bias in diagnosis, and the shame that society heaps on neurodivergent people. The activism angle is what really sets ADHD AF apart. While most ADHD podcasts focus inward on individual strategies, Laura consistently zooms out to question why the systems are broken in the first place. If you're someone who's moved past the "how do I cope" phase and into the "why is this so hard and what can we change" phase, this podcast matches that energy. It's raw, passionate, and unafraid to name the problems that politer shows dance around.
