First thoughts on hearing the introduction to this audiobook was ‘oh, it’s that guy!’ Alex’ tones being instantly recognisable from the fabulous ADHD affirming content he shares across social media platforms and from his podcast ‘ADHD Chatter’.

This is a book that appealed to me as Alex’ story piqued my interest and Im sure it will resonate widely, as many of us can relate to the ADHD presentation described whereby the more hyperactive elements are internalised and therefore we evade diagnosis in childhood, as such going undiagnosed, or receiving a late diagnosis during adulthood. As one such person I found this book validating, reassuring and enlightening.

As a highly successful entrepreneur, Alex is a great person to learn from, as he shares how ADHD has brought him highs and lows, in this book we can learn, variously, how to navigate our often confusing neurodiverse brains to succeed in our lives - both professionally and personally. Lots of practical content alongside Alex’ really interesting life story to date make this book both a pleasurable listen and utter affirming learning experience.

My thanks to NetGalley, author and publisher for the opportunity to review this book in exchange for an advance copy.

Thank you to NetGalley for the ARC.

Excellent memoir about life with ADHD. I highly recommend it. Alex’s lived experience is the kind of viewpoint that is often missing from the public discourse.

If you or someone you care about has ADHD this book would be a great starting point

An insightful account of Alex Partridge's experiences living with ADHD and the impact of a later in life diagnosis (the author was 34 when he received his diagnosis).
Useful perspectives were shared in relation to how he experiences and manages various aspects of life and insights were also offered about different forms of ADHD experienced by others.
It would certainly be a good book for anyone recently diagnosed with ADHD and their friends and families.
I am grateful to the publishers and NetGalley for an advanced listener copy of this interesting and well written book.

An absolute 5-star read for me. The narration was excellent—clear, engaging, and easy to follow, which made the experience all the more enjoyable. As someone with ADHD, I found the book incredibly relatable and helpful. It was comforting to hear daily struggles that mirrored my own, and it reminded me that I’m not alone in this.
The tips and strategies shared in the book were practical and insightful, and I particularly appreciated how the author pointed readers toward other experts in the ADHD field.

While I found the content engaging overall, there were moments where it felt a bit repetitive.

One area where I felt the book could have been stronger was in offering more advice tailored to single or working-class individuals. That said, it still provided plenty of actionable advice and reassurance for navigating life with ADHD.

Overall, this was an incredibly helpful and relatable resource that I’d highly recommend to anyone seeking support or insight into ADHD.
