E84: The Reckoning: Navigating a Late-in-Life ADHD Diagnosis, with Christina Crowe, RP

The Christina Crowe Podcast: Making the invisible VISIBLE

A late-in-life ADHD diagnosis can feel like a bombshell—bringing clarity, grief, and a flood of emotions. But what happens after the diagnosis?

In this solo episode, host Christina Crowe, psychotherapist, dives deep into something she talks about all the time, but has never dedicated a full episode to before: The Reckoning.

In this episode, Christina unpacks:

• The three distinct phases of "The Reckoning" and how long it really lasts,
• How to find opportunities in your late ADHD diagnosis,
• Key questions to ask yourself as you process your new reality,
• Where to find the best resources for support and growth,

If you’ve been diagnosed with ADHD as an adult, this episode will help you make sense of your journey, find self-compassion, and move forward with clarity.
