Open Deeply Podcast Featuring Pam Shaffer LMFT
It was such a joy being on the Open Deeply podcast with the wonderful hosts Kate Loree and Sunny Megatron!
Listen on Spotify or Apple Podcasts to hear me yap all about ADHD, autism, relationships, limerence, non-monogamy and everything in between.
Here’s a sneak preview of the episode:
Have you noticed lately that everybody feels like they have ADHD? Do you really have it or is it simply all the doom scrolling that has you scattered? Well, today we have a guest that might help you take a step towards having that sorted out. Please welcome Pam Shaffer, who specializes in ADHD, non-monogamy, and creative practices. She is the founder of Best Self Psych, a group of ENM, kink, and LGBTQ+ affirmative therapists and coaches. As a coach and therapist herself, she offers sessions for high performing neurodivergent individuals who want to have more authentic, fulfilling relationships. In this episode, Pam explains what AuDHD is (a combo of autism and ADHD), how to recognize the symptoms, and how to cope with common struggles, such as rejection sensitivity. She shares some interesting personal stories of her journey being neurodivergent, both the joys and the struggles. Then we move on to talking about what it’s like to date someone who is neurodivergent and what it’s like to date when you, yourself, are neurodivergent. We even cover what it’s like to be a porn performer who is also neurodivergent. So please join us as we explore why human differences actually add color and fun to life and once again dare to Open Deeply.
