Is ADHD a challenge, a superpower, or both? | Talia Knoble-Gershon
This week on ChatterBeans, I sit down with the vibrant and totally unapologetic Talia Knoble-Gershon to talk all things neurodivergence, identity, queer joy, and social housing.
We chat about growing up with ADHD, mixing friendship groups like it’s a social experiment, dating (or not dating), and why Bridget Jones feels like a personal icon. Talia shares her passion for public service, how she brings her full self to work, and why living truthfully - chaos and all - is the only way forward.
Expect big laughs, honest reflections, and a reminder that being your authentic self is more than enough.
