10 million adults live with ADHD, that's according to CHADD (Children and Adults with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder). In this episode, Naeemah chats with Joanna Rush, an early childhood administrator. Joanna talks about how she manages her work and home life while living with ADHD.


Joanna Rush started working in early childhood education in 2000. She taught infants to school-age children and has been an Early Childhood administrator for the past four years. She is passionate about children, especially during the early learning years! Joanna says the brain develops 90% from birth to age 5, which means what we teach, and the relationships we build with children last a lifetime. 


Joanna was diagnosed with ADHD in her 20's, which explained a lot about her struggles socially, and in the classroom. She is proud to share that she is neurodivergent and feels like others should too. She continues to research and educate herself to help others understand what it means to be neurodivergent because they are often misunderstood. 


Joanna is married to her best friend Steve, and they have 6 children ranging from the ages of 5 to 23! Which has kept them busy with school, sports, and many graduations! She likes to spend time with family and friends, listen to music, and enjoy food!
