Episode 039: In Part Four of Don’t Mind Me, I Just Have ADHD, we look at the wounds that didn’t start with us, but live in us: generational trauma. Guided by the work of Dr. Gabor Maté, we explore how absence—handshakes instead of hugs, silence instead of comfort—gets passed down through families, shaping not only how we perceive ourselves, but also how our very nervous systems develop. From royal palaces to ordinary homes, trauma shows up in ways that are often invisible but deeply felt. And if even princes carry these wounds, what does that mean for the rest of us?Ron also sits down with his own mother for a raw and intimate conversation—unpacking family history, doubt, shame, emotional security, nervous breakdowns, and the complex but honest path toward healing.But this story is bigger than family. Next week, we turn to the pharmaceutical industry—the marketing, money, and narratives that have entangled ADHD with profit and shame. What happens when an entire system profits from our pain? That’s where we’re going.✨ What You’ll Learn in This Episode:How generational trauma gets passed down through silence, absence, and unmet needs—not DNA.Why Dr. Gabor Maté argues that our culture itself is “toxic,” and how relationships shape physiology.The surprising science of how affection—even in animals—literally wires resilience into the brain.How stories of royalty, such as those of Prince Harry and King Charles, reveal the hidden cost of emotional detachment.Action steps to begin breaking the cycle of inherited shame in your own life.Other Great Ways to Connect with Me:👩🏫Strength Coaching with Ron: www.youradhdguy.com📬 Subscribe & join The Kindness Circle!👩🦯Tik Tok @RonSolo1📻 Patreon Patreon.com/ronsouers📨Email
