Episode notes

In this episode of Melanated ADHD, host Annette interviews Christa Kaodi*, a first-generation Nigerian-American whose upbringing in Kentucky and a series of pivotal events in 2020 led to her late diagnosis of ADHD in her early 30s.

Christa shares her journey toward self-awareness, discussing how ADHD intersects with her multifaceted identity and the importance of culturally competent healthcare providers who can break down barriers to receiving proper care.

Through Christa’s story, we hope you find aspects that resonate with your own experience and gain insights into building a healthy support system on your path to self-discovery.
