Summary

What is ADHD, and how would someone know if they have it? How does ADHD show up in sex and relationships? What are the common struggles, challenges, and superpowers? What about kink and ADHD? Why is setting up an ideal environment so important for sexual and relational success? How can people with ADHD become more sexually empowered? And why is there very little research on ADHD and sex? About our guest: Leann Borneman is a sexologist and certified sex therapist who specializes in the intersection of ADHD and sexuality. As an individual with ADHD, Leann brings a personal understanding to the challenges that can arise in intimate settings. Her approach emphasizes the importance of reshaping our environments rather than trying to change ourselves. Leann is dedicated to creating successful frameworks for our environments, relationships, and sexual experiences. To learn more go to http://bornemancoaching.com Instagram Tik Tok Do you love us?
