AuDHD and Then Some™ is a podcast about neurodivergence, trauma, recovery and the complicated reality of being human.

Hosted by Ellie AuDHD, conversations are honest, down-to-earth and often deeply personal, exploring ADHD, autism, AuDHD, burnout, relationships, addiction and recovery, mental health, identity, trauma and the experiences that shape us.

Alongside Ellie's lived experience, you'll hear long-form conversations with guests from around the world sharing their stories, knowledge and perspectives.

On the 1st of every month, Ellie is joined by co-host Tasha for a free-flowing AuDHD conversation, taking one topic and properly getting into it. You'll also find occasional solo episodes where Ellie talks candidly about AuDHD, life, recovery, relationships and whatever else her brain has decided needs discussing that day.

No pretending we've got everything figured out. No perfect version of neurodivergence. Just real conversations that help us understand ourselves and each other a little better.

Learn. Connect. Feel less alone.

Navigating Grief and Resilience with Caron Grossman

Tuesday, September 22, 2026 • Duration 01:09:26

# Navigating Grief and Resilience with Caron Grossman

> A heartfelt conversation on loss, recovery, and self-discovery.

Caron Grossman’s journey weaves through the threads of grief, addiction, and recovery, offering profound insights on how to rebuild when life takes unexpected turns.

## The Essence of Caron

In a candid conversation, Caron reflects on her identity beyond her titles. "I truly think I am the same person I was when I was two," she shares, emphasizing that her core essence remains unchanged despite life’s challenges. This perspective invites us to explore our own identities through the lens of our experiences.

## A Life Marked by Loss

Carons life took a pivotal turn at the age of 13 when she lost her mother suddenly to a heart attack. This loss shaped her understanding of grief, but she insists, "I was me before my mom died." The suddenness of her mother's death left a void, one that she grappled with in solitude as her family struggled to communicate their grief. Despite this, Caron highlights the importance of being seen: "I lost that feeling of being seen... I love to offer people that option of being seen."

## The Power of Boundaries

In discussing her past, Caron acknowledges the challenges of accepting others' behaviors due to her empathetic nature. "It’s gotten me in a lot of trouble," she admits, but emphasizes how establishing boundaries has been crucial for her well-being.

## Learning from Grief

Carons ability to process grief was shaped by the lessons imparted by her mother before her passing. "She helped us go through that grief... but nobody else took that lesson," she reflects, highlighting the isolation that can accompany profound loss.

Through her story, Caron invites listeners to find strength in their vulnerabilities and to embrace the journey of healing, no matter how daunting it may seem.

As we close this chapter of Caron's story, consider the moments in your own life that have reshaped your identity. How do you see yourself amidst your experiences?

For a deeper dive into Carons journey and insights, listen to the full episode.

Addiction, Codependency & People Pleasing: What Happens After You Get Sober? | Dr Sarah Michaud

Tuesday, September 22, 2026 • Duration 52:28

⚠️ TRIGGER WARNING: This episode contains frank and detailed discussions about addiction, drug and alcohol use, cocaine, relapse, overdose, mental health, unhealthy relationships, shame and experiences during active addiction. Please listen with care and look after yourself if any of these topics may be difficult for you. ❤️

What happens when you stop using drugs or alcohol, but realise the addiction was only part of the story?

In this honest and deeply relatable conversation, Ellie is joined by Dr Sarah Michaud, a clinical psychologist, author and recovery advocate who has worked in addiction and codependency recovery for more than 30 years. Sarah has also been sober from alcohol and cocaine since 1984.

Together, Ellie and Sarah speak openly about their experiences of addiction, sobriety and what comes afterwards. They explore codependency, people-pleasing, unhealthy relationships, boundaries, self-worth and the emotional work involved in rebuilding your life.

They discuss why getting sober does not automatically resolve the patterns underneath addiction, how shame and guilt can keep us trapped, and why we can become consumed by trying to manage, rescue or change other people.

Sarah also shares her thoughts on dating and relationships after addiction, recognising what somebody’s behaviour is showing you and learning to trust yourself again.

One of the most powerful reminders from this conversation is:

“Pay attention to what somebody shows you, not just what they tell you.”

Topics include:

• Cocaine and alcohol addiction
• Sobriety and relapse
• Codependency and people-pleasing
• Shame, guilt and self-worth
• Boundaries and unhealthy relationships
• Emotional regulation
• Dating after addiction
• Rebuilding your identity and life
• Recovery beyond simply stopping the substance

Dr Sarah Michaud is the author of Co-Crazy: One Psychologist’s Recovery from Codependency and Addiction and co-host of Leaving CrazyTown.

Can Psychics Change How We Understand Anxiety, Intuition and Healing? With Lisa Van Zuylen

Thursday, September 17, 2026 • Duration 57:06

⚠️ Content warning: This episode includes conversations about anxiety, panic attacks, trauma and mental health. Please listen with care and choose what feels safe for you.

Can psychics and intuitive practices change how we understand anxiety, healing and ourselves?

In this episode, Ellie is joined by Lisa Van Zuylen, also known as Soul Design Lisa. Lisa is an intuitive guide, energy practitioner and certified trauma practitioner who has spent more than 17 years helping people transform spiritually, emotionally and physically.

Lisa shares how experiencing severe anxiety and panic attacks led her to explore meditation, spirituality and energy-based practices. Together, Ellie and Lisa discuss intuition, trauma, nervous-system regulation, holistic healing and what it can mean to reconnect with ourselves beyond conventional approaches.

Ellie also talks honestly about her previous understanding of psychics and how speaking with Lisa opened her mind to the many different ways intuition and psychic practices can be viewed.

This is a grounded, open-minded conversation about anxiety, spirituality, personal transformation and healing, with plenty of warmth, laughter and possibly the best bouncy blow-dry Ellie has ever seen, even though Lisa insists it isn’t a bouncy blow-dry.

Topics include:

• Anxiety and panic attacks
• Meditation and nervous-system regulation
• Intuition and psychic practices
• Trauma and emotional healing
• Spirituality and energy work
• Learning to trust yourself
• Finding hope through different approaches

Neurodivergence, Trauma and Healing: A Raw Conversation with Jax of Black Wolves confessions

Wednesday, September 16, 2026 • Duration 01:35:55

When Ellie and Jax get talking, the conversation quickly becomes raw, honest, funny and beautifully unfiltered.

In this episode, they explore neurodivergence, trauma, relationships, healing and the complicated journey towards accepting yourself as you are.

Ellie shares her lived experience of ADHD and autism, commonly known together as AuDHD, and reflects on the unexpected journey that led her into podcasting. What began with a humorous social media mishap has grown into a thriving platform and a Facebook community of more than 50,000 people, all centred around education, connection and support.

Jax opens up about their personal healing journey, including their experiences with trauma therapy, learning to establish healthier boundaries and navigating relationships while carrying the effects of past experiences.

Together, Ellie and Jax discuss:

The realities of living with a neurodivergent mind
Trauma, therapy and the ongoing process of healing
Learning to recognise and establish healthier boundaries
Navigating relationships while protecting your wellbeing
The importance of community, authenticity and feeling understood
How humour and vulnerability can help us connect

This conversation is a reminder that understanding neurodivergence is about far more than recognising a list of traits. It means listening to lived experiences, questioning harmful assumptions and creating space for people to be fully themselves.

Expect laughter, vulnerability, emotional honesty and plenty of wonderfully chaotic conversation. If you are navigating neurodivergence, trauma, difficult relationships or your own healing journey, this episode will remind you that you are not alone.

Content warning: This episode includes discussions about trauma, mental health and difficult relationship experiences. Please listen with care.

Tuesday, September 15, 2026 • Duration 59:10

⚠️ Trigger warning: This episode includes conversations about childhood and adult trauma, cancer, chronic illness, mental health and emotional distress. Please listen with care and choose what feels safe for you.

Can emotional trauma affect our physical health, and what role does the nervous system play in healing?

Together, they explore the connection between emotional stress, unresolved trauma, nervous-system dysregulation and physical health. Dr Hart discusses the importance of looking beyond symptoms, reducing fear around illness and helping people feel informed and empowered within their own healing journey.

They also talk about cancer, chronic illness, prevention, lifestyle, emotional regulation and why caring for the mind, body and nervous system can be such an important part of supporting our overall wellbeing.

This is an open and thought-provoking conversation about trauma, health, resilience and hope.

⚠️ Trigger warning: This episode includes detailed and potentially distressing conversations about school shootings, childhood sexual abuse, trauma, grief and other sensitive experiences. Please listen with care and choose what feels safe for you.

Highly Sensitive, Deeply Feeling & Learning to Be Kinder to Yourself | Elizabeth Cush

Tuesday, September 8, 2026 • Duration 56:26

Content note: This episode includes conversations about trauma, emotional overwhelm and mental health.

What does it really mean to be a highly sensitive person, and how can we learn to treat ourselves with greater compassion?

In this episode, I’m joined by Elizabeth Cush, a licensed clinical professional counsellor, women’s life coach and highly sensitive person. We explore high sensitivity, anxiety, trauma, nervous-system overwhelm and the importance of learning to understand your own needs.

Elizabeth shares her personal and professional insight into why deeply feeling people can become overwhelmed, how past experiences affect the way we respond to the world, and why self-compassion is so important. We also discuss boundaries, people-pleasing, rest and learning to be kinder to ourselves instead of constantly believing we should be coping better.

This is a warm, honest conversation for anyone who feels deeply, becomes easily overwhelmed or has spent years believing they are simply “too sensitive.”

Topics include:

• What it means to be a highly sensitive person
• Anxiety, trauma and nervous-system overwhelm
• People-pleasing and boundaries
• Recognising your emotional needs
• Practising self-compassion
• Learning to work with your sensitivity rather than fighting it

The Great ADHD Myth: An AuDHD Panel Discussion on ADHD, Diagnosis, Medication & Lived Experience

Sunday, September 6, 2026 • Duration 01:53:34

The Great ADHD Myth: An AuDHD Panel Discussion on ADHD, Diagnosis, Medication & Lived Experience

What happens when the people actually living with ADHD get a seat at the table?

In this special panel episode of AuDHD and Then Some, Ellie AuDHD Capstick is joined by her co-host Daran, aka Man on Pause, and a diverse panel of voices to discuss and respond to Channel 4’s The Great ADHD Myth.

Together, the panel explores some of the biggest and most controversial conversations surrounding ADHD today, including ADHD diagnosis, late diagnosis, ADHD medication, overdiagnosis and underdiagnosis, neurodivergence, mental health, stigma, access to assessment and the reality of living with ADHD and AuDHD.

Rather than reducing ADHD to statistics, headlines or a television debate, this conversation puts real lived experience at the centre.

The panel shares personal perspectives on what ADHD actually looks and feels like, the impact of spending years without understanding your brain, the barriers people face when seeking diagnosis and support, and why conversations about ADHD need nuance, compassion and the voices of neurodivergent people themselves.

Expect disagreement, honesty, humour and some very big conversations.

Whether you're ADHD, AuDHD, autistic, questioning whether you might be neurodivergent, supporting someone with ADHD, or simply interested in the debate surrounding ADHD diagnosis in the UK, this episode offers perspectives that often get lost in the headlines.

❤️ With Thanks

With so much thanks, gratitude, kindness and appreciation to Chloe-Louise, Abdul-Ahad, Chris Anderson, Mick Miller, and, of course, our fabulous Daran Man on pause.

And last but absolutely not least, Angie Rhys.

Thank you all so much for giving your time, your voices, your experiences and your perspectives to this conversation. It genuinely wouldn’t have been the same without you. ❤️🌈

ADHD, Entrepreneurship and Starting Again with Joshua Griffin

Thursday, September 3, 2026 • Duration 01:07:15

In this episode, I speak with the inspirational entrepreneur Joshua Griffin about everything from ADHD, school and diagnosis to business success, burnout, debt and starting again.

We talk about Joshua’s belief that ADHD can be a superpower when it is harnessed correctly. I agree, but with a very important emphasis on the words “harnessed correctly”, because ADHD can bring incredible drive, creativity and determination, while also making life and business incredibly difficult without the right understanding and support.

Joshua shares the honest story behind building a successful company, experiencing major losses and finding himself £35,000 in personal debt. We discuss what that level of debt does to you emotionally, how it can affect your confidence and decisions, and how you begin rebuilding when it feels as though everything you worked for has fallen apart.

We also talk about Joshua’s journey back from that point, co-founding his agency Intrinzi and writing his upcoming book, Built It. Nearly Lost It. Built It Again.

This is an honest, natural conversation about ADHD, entrepreneurship, resilience and the version of business success that people rarely post online.

Nervous System Regulation, Sensory Overload & AuDHD Burnout | Ellie & Tasha

Tuesday, September 1, 2026 • Duration 01:09:12

Nervous System Regulation, Sensory Overload & AuDHD Burnout | Ellie & Tasha

This month, Ellie and Tasha are back together for their monthly AuDHD & Then Some catch-up — and this one is very real, very candid, and recorded while both of us are feeling a little bit frazzled ourselves.

Our theme this month is nervous system regulation, sensory overload and overwhelm in AuDHD, and we're talking openly about what that actually looks like in everyday life.

We chat about our own experiences of feeling close to burnout, recognising when our nervous systems are overloaded, what helps us regulate, and the small things we can do when our brains and bodies are screaming, "ENOUGH."

We cover:

🌈 AuDHD and nervous system regulation
🧠 ADHD, autism and sensory overload
🔥 Recognising neurodivergent burnout
😵‍💫 Overwhelm, exhaustion and feeling frazzled
💚 Ways we can support ourselves when we're dysregulated
🫶 Recovering from periods of burnout
🎧 Sensory needs and understanding your own nervous system
💬 Our own very real experiences this month
✨ Practical tips and ideas that may help
🌱 What we're working on ourselves — because we definitely don't have it all figured out either!

We also talk about what's coming this month inside the AuDHD & Then Some Membership, including our resources around nervous system regulation, sensory overwhelm and understanding your individual needs.

Members can access resources through our website and our Facebook Subscribers Hub, with resources designed to be downloadable, printable and fillable, so you can actually use them in whatever way works best for your brain.

And yes… we were BOTH slightly dreading recording this episode because we're tired, frazzled and feeling the effects of a very busy month.

But we showed up.

And actually? We're bloody glad we did. 💚

This is what our monthly episodes are about — no pretending we've mastered neurodivergence, no perfect morning routines and no telling you to simply "regulate your nervous system."
