Five Things You’re Guaranteed to Get at the ADHD Open Space

Transcript: Welcome to the ADHD Open Space Podcast.  My name is Gray Miller, and I will be your host and facilitator as we explore ideas, workarounds, accommodations, and other aspects of being a professional adult with ADHD.  Most of this will come from my perspective as a cis white male in his mid-fifties living in the Midwest who found out a year ago that I’ve been living with ADHD my entire life.  I am not an expert on ADHD, except maybe in not knowing I have had it for half a century and somehow still getting by. But I promise to cite my sources or at least admit when I’m repeating something I read on the interwebs. If I say anything you don’t agree with, you’re welcome to call me on it and let me know.  This podcast is also part of the lead up into the first ADHD Open Space happening in Madison, Wisconsin, on January 20th, 2024.  You can learn more about that event both here in the show, and at the website, ADHDopen.space. Enjoy the show.  Hello and welcome back to the ADHD Open Space Podcast.  This is the first podcast after National Podcast Post Month, which was November.  And we succeeded in our goal of posting 30 different episodes about open space events and ADHD, different things about that, including a couple of interviews.  Did I make all the interviews I wanted? Nope.  Did I talk about all the stuff I wanted to talk about? Nope.  Uh, but I did succeed in the goal of getting 30 posts up, which I think gives a pretty good body of knowledge. And I wanted to give it a, myself a little rest after that, uh, month long, you know, high pressure, have to get these things out kind of thing.  And I also wanted to see if there was still interest and believe it or not, I’m still getting signups, even though I haven’t really done much on the ADHD OS sub stack or podcast. That tells me that there are still people interested and so we are gonna continue I’m not gonna sit here and pretend like I’m gonna make a schedule  We’re going to aim right now for every two weeks. If I do it more than that, then I hope you’ll forgive me. And if I do it less than that, well, then that’s probably a sign that I need to take things down a little bit.  But in the meantime, I’m also happy to say this is the first podcast that I’m recording using a non-Adobe product. I have cut my ties with Adobe and I am going for some pay once and then use it forever kind of thing rather than software as a service.  And we’ll see how that works. If you notice any difference in the audio quality, please let me know.  While I do have, I have a pinned on the site, the reasons why an open space is the just custom made for ADHD brains.  I had a friend who he was we were talking about the fact that there’s not been a whole lot of signups yet at the ADHD Open Space at the time of this recording. ...
