MissUnderstood: The ADHD in Women Channel

MissUnderstood is a channel, not a single show, and that structure is part of why it works. Understood.org bundles three distinct series under one feed: Catie Osborn's "Sorry, I Missed This" brings the chaotic-warm energy of someone who got diagnosed late and is still processing it out loud. Dr. Monica Johnson's "ADHD and..." takes the clinical angle without turning preachy. Jaye Lin's "Tips From an ADHD Coach" is the most practical of the three, short episodes you can knock out on a walk. New drops come roughly every two weeks, with individual episodes running anywhere from 11 minutes to just over 40. What pulls it together is a specific focus most ADHD shows still fumble: women, especially the ones who went undiagnosed for decades because they were quiet in class or high-achieving or just good at hiding. Rejection sensitivity, hormonal cycles and symptom spikes, the household-chore wars, friendship ghosting out of executive dysfunction, sex and intimacy, the guilt spiral. These topics get real airtime here. It's one of the few ADHD podcasts that treats women's specific presentations as the default rather than an afterthought.
