This week, we’re sharing a powerful episode from our friends at
Hyperfocus — a deeply personal story with its own
“aha” moments. Inattentive ADHD is often missed, especially in
boys who don’t fit the typical ADHD stereotype. Brandon Saiz
shares his later-in-life diagnosis and what it meant to have been
overlooked for so long.

If you’re not already listening to Hyperfocus, check it

As kids head back to school, it's a good time to remember: not
every student experiences the classroom the same way. Through
My Eyes, a free interactive experience from Understood, lets
you step into a day in the life of a kid with ADHD, dyslexia, or
dyscalculia. See their strengths and challenges in a whole new
way. Try it out here.

Understood.org is a nonprofit organization dedicated to
empowering people with learning and thinking differences, like
ADHD and dyslexia. If you want to help us continue this work,
