Grandma Has ADHD with Jami Shapiro

Virginia joins Jami Shapiro on Grandma Has ADHD for Episode 101, a conversation exploring the intersections between ADHD, trauma, generational experiences, emotional regulation, family dynamics, and the nervous system.

Virginia and Jami discuss how ADHD and trauma can sometimes involve experiences that may look similar from the outside while still being very different.

The conversation encourages looking at the whole person, including biology, development, environment, relationships, and personal history, rather than reducing someone’s experience to a single explanation.

They also explore how greater understanding can create space for compassion, individualized support, and tools that honor each person’s unique experience.
