Diagnosed with ADHD as a child, Helena Hills, co-founder and CEO of TrueStart Coffee, is a self-described Neurodiversity champion who has been on a real journey of self-discovery - and now considers ADHD to be a key ingredient in driving TrueStart forward. It's only been in recent years that Helena has started to come to terms with - and accepted - her neurodiversity as a key strand of her identity. "I find emotions really hard to regulate; this is really common for people with ADHD," Helena shares openly on the #GoodJourneysPod. "I feel emotions deeply. I have this paralysing level of empathy for others and I find that quite often really overwhelming. I feel emotion physically through every bone in my body. I used to think, how are other people just going through life, hiding that pain so well? And the fact that they're not feeling it just explains everything!" #neurodiversity #adhd #neurodivergent #smallbusinessowner #truestartcoffee Watch the full interview with Helena: https://youtu.be/WbfpncLGtm0?si=REUMn5tWq02SSuwL Also available as a #podcast via Spotify, Amazon Music and Apple Podcasts: www.secondmountaincomms.co.uk/podcast Produced for Second Mountain Comms by Loretz Visuals. ******************************************************************* 'Good Journeys with Second Mountain' is brought to you in partnership with our friends at Resilient Leaders Elements: ⁠⁠⁠https://tinyurl.com/2edzmvfe⁠⁠⁠ Leadership begins with about resilience - and Resilient Leaders Elements (RLE) are focused on making world class leadership development available to all, training people worldwide to build the skillsets needed to become resilient leaders.  RLE’s highly respected Resilient Leaders Development Programme is a bespoke development tool that’s perfect for leaders of all levels - and you can sign up now.
