Recognizing the Need for Answers: Embracing my ADHD Diagnosis - Martin Hauck
Manage episode 403728738 series 3532759
When Martin opened up about his late-recognized inattentive ADHD, it wasn't just a personal revelation—it was a story that resonated with many of us flying under the radar with our struggles. Our latest episode takes you through the ups and downs of his journey, from the draining work project to his diagnosis at 38, and the impact it has had on his life. Discover how Martin's candid conversation sheds light on the challenges of living with an invisible condition, the importance of community, and even the lighter moments like mixing up flight details that remind us we're all human.
Navigating the waters of personal health in the workplace can be like walking a tightrope, balancing the need for transparency with the risks that may come. Martin and I unpack this delicate conversation, reflecting on my own experiences with vulnerability and the instrumental role of self-advocacy. Weaving in the complexities of ADHD with personal anecdotes, including those that involve family and the humorous nuances of daily life, this episode emphasizes the profound strength we summon when choosing to share our stories.
Martin's role extends beyond his challenges to include nurturing an environment of openness with his children. Our conversation takes a turn towards the dynamics of relationships affected by ADHD and the critical importance of clear communication, even with the youngest in the family.
This episode not only examines the convergence of fatherhood and personal growth but also invites you into a world where a candid, hearty exchange can be the very catalyst for embracing life's unpredictability with a spirited chuckle.
Takeaways
- The Power of Community and Sharing
- Disclosing an invisible condition to employers is a personal decision
- Self-Advocacy and Personal Growth
- Impact on Family Dynamics
- The Dual Nature of Diagnosis
Martin Hauck - BIO
Martin's coach recently helped him identify his purpose and although it's not finished, the current draft looks and sounds like this:
Build cool things, with cool people and help people believe in themselves or find what they're looking for.
For the first decade of his career, he helped contractors and manufacturers find the parts they needed to keep their businesses running smoothly.
For the last decade of his career, he's helped tech companies like Rangle, Stackadapt, Coinsquare and Caseware find the people they need to grow and scale.
And now, (as of March 2023) he's re-joined the world of entrepreneurship by continuing to grow The People People Group (a 5,000 HR/Recruitment Slack community) and launching Purple Umbrella (a fractional People Ops consultancy) with his business partner Monica Sarkar.
In between all that, he's a geeky dad and ever-improving husband who runs on espresso and is always exploring something new who can talk your ear off about crypto, aliens, VR/AR and Dungeons & Dragons.
