About this listen
An unprecedented guide for any woman with ADHD looking to celebrate her unique brilliance and to embark on a journey of self-discovery.
ADHD is one of the most common neurological disorders in the United States—yet a staggering 75 percent of girls and women remain undiagnosed. Due to the gender gap in medical research, which does not account for symptoms manifesting differently in women—leading to increased problems with anxiety, depression, working memory, sleep, energy, and concentration—many ADHD women are left to navigate a society that fails to understand their struggles and gifts. But what if every woman had the resources and support to uncover the hidden wonders of her neurodivergent brain?
Enter certified ADHD coach and podcast host Tracy Otsuka. Armed with her experience coaching thousands of women, cutting-edge medical research, and personal insights from her own diagnosis, she presents a revelatory guide tailored specifically for girls and women with ADHD. In it, Otsuka offers an entirely new set of tools, systems, and strategies to access a world of boundless productivity, focus, and confidence.
With her signature wit and levity—in entertaining chapters designed for ADHD listeners—Otsuka explores the unique challenges that ADHD women face and illuminates the extraordinary qualities that set them apart: overflowing creativity, laser-focused attention, deep empathy, and fearless entrepreneurial spirit. Even without an official diagnosis, listeners will be equipped with the tools to conquer any to-do list and to tap into their true purpose, personally or professionally.
By dismantling the long-standing stereotypes and misinformation surrounding women with ADHD, Otsuka offers a beacon of hope for any woman looking to transform her symptoms into strengths. Comprehensive, lively, and long overdue, ADHD for Smart Ass Women is the key to unlocking unparalleled potential and to understanding your truly magnificent and brilliant brain.

The book covers a lot of ground
First of all, I gave all three review sections 5 stars.
There’s too much about this book that was valuable not to give it full marks- but right to the end I was tempted to drop it to 4 stars.
Tracy obviously cares a great deal about us SmartAss ADHD women; she shares a bountiful amount of knowledge, both science-based and anecdotal but none of it felt careless or simply her opinion.
The reason I almost dropped it to four stars was not so much about content but rather /
1/
Too much (for me) “…Jane Doe, who took my program on xyz” & “Emily Doe who attended my class on…”. & “Jenny Doe who, with my recommendation, while attending my xyz …”
For me, it became a bit arduous at times- it sounded like constant advertising.
I would have preferred a long list at the end of her various courses, or an invitation to the website-
2/
Too many suggestions that assume family and financial status:
- Financial
Options available to those who can afford it - from testing & medication to hiring out for help with children and chores.
- Family
Right after acknowledging how susceptible ADHD women are to unhealthy relationships there’s an entire list of tips that require equal sharing with your partner on everything from… well, children to chores.
3/ It’s very U.S. based - (which is fine because of course the author lives in the states), but it’s worth noting that many options are limited to geography, family & financial status (see number 2 above).
There are a few other small things but these are the things that I felt the most strongly about giving a heads up for.
Again, I truly believe the author cares deeply and in this book she provides some truly invaluable insight. With these three caveats, which I clearly feel strongly about, I highly recommend this book and will likely gift it to both Neuro divergent, and Neurotypical people in my world.
The things I’ve noted may not bother anybody but me, but this is my review 😉
