Angie ADHD with Angie Hurlburt (Bonus Episode 28)

Angie ADHD with Angie Hurlburt (Bonus Episode 28)

Have you ever questioned whether your neurodivergence played a role in the trauma you endured—and perhaps even helped you escape it?

Was it the trauma that caused the ADHD, or did the ADHD cause the trauma?

In this powerful conversation, let's explore how living with undiagnosed ADHD made Angie, an ADHD coach and fellow survivor of a toxic family system, the perfect target for scapegoating—misunderstood, mislabeled, and chronically blamed in a family that punished difference instead of embracing it.

🌿 Children with ADHD are far more likely to be the family scapegoat

🌿 Similarities between the highly sensitive person and adhd

🌿The adhd child is often the truth teller, blurting truths out and facing harsh consequences

🌿 The superpower of hyper focus

🌿 The emotional fallout of being an adhd child in a toxic family

🌿 ADHD a result of C-PTSD


Angie Hurlburt is a Certified Advanced ADHD Life Coach, proud ADHDer, and mom of two ADHDers. Diagnosed later in life, Angie draws on her 42 years of lived experience navigating the challenges of a neurodivergent brain and surviving Family Scapegoating Abuse.

Now, she’s turning her passion for truth-telling and resilience into actionable change through coaching and The ADHD Scapegoat Podcast, which she co-hosts with her husband. Together, they tackle ADHD struggles, childhood trauma, and the realities of being an ADHD Scapegoat by having honest conversations about our lived experiences in hopes of creating a brighter future.
