After years of wondering, I was very recently diagnosed with ADHD myself. That experience gave me a deeper understanding of the everyday challenges so many people face — whether it’s struggling to stay organised at work, managing focus in school, or balancing energy and routine in sport and fitness. I know firsthand what it’s like to search for clarity, and that’s a big part of why Bright 360 means so much to me.
