In this semi-sode, Gwen & Kate chat about the the importance of getting enough sleep during Xmas party season, and how being deprived of things during Storm Darragh makes us appreciate them so much more – like washing hands! Taking showers! Kate briefly turns into a white van driver and then shares words of the year from across the globe. Australia winning hands down. Plus listener shoutouts!

We talk to podcast host Lisa Paasche about her experience of going through peri-menopause, which lead her to a late diagnosis of ADHD. She shares why perimenopause can be a particularly challenging time for people with ADHD, the relief that came with her diagnosis, and everything that she has learned along the way.

Lisa is the host of a new podcast called 'Am I crazy or…', which focuses on the spicy combo of perimenopause and ADHD, talking to experts about these two complex subject areas.

To find out more about the 'Am I crazy or...' podcast (launching early 2025), head to the podcast's instagram page.

The charity where Lisa went for her ADHD diagnosis is SEIK Psychiatry.
