August 12, 2026·1h 7m
Episode Description from the Publisher

This week on LATE BLOOMERS, Rich and Rox sit down with Dr. Jolene Brighten to talk about something nobody's telling ADHD women — perimenopause doesn't wait until you're 50, and for a lot of you it's already started.They get into why ADHD women hit perimenopause about a decade earlier than everyone thinks, why doctors keep saying you're "too young" for what your body's already going through, and why you can end up with twice the symptoms and half the answers. Rox also opens up about a period last year that felt like a full breakdown, and what it took to actually find out why.Grab Dr. Brighten's new book, ADHD & Women: drbrighten.com/adhdandwomenMore from Dr. Brighten:Website: www.drbrighten.comInstagram: instagram.com/drjolenebrightenTikTok: tiktok.com/@drjolenebrightenThreads: threads.net/@drjolenebrighten20% off Loop Earplugs: https://www.loopearplugs.com/adhdlove
