In this week’s episode of the ADHD Women’s Wellbeing Wisdom podcast, I revisit a powerful conversation with Moe Ari Brown , a licensed marriage and family therapist, Hinge’s love and connection expert, and board member of the It Gets Better Project. Moe brings their depth of clinical insight and lived experience to help us unpack the realities of ADHD and modern dating. Together, we explore what it really means to date with ADHD, from emotional regulation and Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria (RSD) to managing the overwhelm of dating apps and embracing self-love. My new book, The ADHD Women's Wellbeing Toolkit, is now available, grab your copy here! What You'll Learn: How understanding Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria (RSD) can improve emotional connection and communication in ADHD relationships. The power of check-ins during dates can support emotional regulation, reduce overwhelm, and build mutual understanding. How to create a strong foundation for navigating the intensity of dating with ADHD using self-love and affirmations. Why novelty and excitement are essential for maintaining engagement and interest in ADHD relationships. How to navigate common patterns in ADHD dating such as love bombing, self-sabotage, and all-or-nothing thinking. How complementary personality differences of ADHD and autism can bring balance and growth to neurodiverse relationships. Using a strength-based approach to dating empowers you to lead with your self-awareness, values, and unique traits. Using self-awareness to recognise your needs, manage triggers, and show up authentically in relationships.
