ADHD: Late Understanding, Early Shame & Making Peace + guest Carolyn Mallon

Julie Legg sits down with psychiatric nurse practitioner and mental health advocate Carolyn Mallon, whose journey from high school dropout to doctorate-level clinician is both inspiring and deeply relatable for late-diagnosed ADHDers. Carolyn shares how understanding her neurodivergence in adulthood radically shifted her ability to study, self-advocate, and succeed both academically and emotionally. The conversation explores the messy, non-linear paths many ADHDers walk, the grief that can accompany diagnosis, and how resilience often looks like simply showing up, trying again, and choosing compassion over shame. This episode is a great reminder that healing and success take many forms, and that it's never too late to start again... with better tools. 00:00 Introducing Carolyn Mallon 02:49 Carolyn’s non-linear path into mental health 05:52 Academic struggles and discovering how to study 08:49 Learning Outside The Lines 09:40 Reframing Success 11:37 Grieving what could’ve been 13:48 Making peace with your earlier self 16:55 What resilience really looks like in daily life 20:33 Comparison, shame and reframing timelines 24:18 Creating a values-aligned mental health practice 28:27 Advice for listeners feeling behind or uncertain LINKEDIN:   / cmallonrn   WEBSITE: https://www.balancementalhealth.com/ FACEBOOK:   / balancementalhealthnh   YOUTUBE:    / @balancementalhealthnh   INSTAGRAM:   / balancementalhealthnh   RECOMMENDED READING: https://www.amazon.com.au/Learning-Ou...
