About Bridget Bennett:
Bridget Bennett is a freelance paralegal specializing in high-conflict custody and divorce cases, with a focus on communicating with narcissistic individuals and navigating the family court system.

In this episode, Jennie and Bridget discuss:
- Establishing clear legal boundaries:
When facing high-conflict personalities, it’s crucial to set legal boundaries. Bridget Bennett emphasizes the need for a firm legal approach, such as having a clear custody order or divorce decree in place if dealing with a narcissistic ex-partner.

Jeff Rice: ADHD and Entrepreneurs
Does this sound familiar? You have big dreams and goals but struggle with planning and follow-through due to ADHD. You’ve been told to simply try harder or just focus, but despite your efforts, you still feel overwhelmed, frustrated, and stuck. It’s time to break free from these ineffective actions and discover practical strategies to overcome your challenges and achieve success.
About Jeff Rice:

His upcoming book, “Your Future ADHD Self: An ADHD-friendly Guide to Planning and Goal Setting” will be published in August 2023 and addresses the common challenges that ADHD adults face in creating an intentional life.
In this episode, Jennie and Jeff discuss:
- Mastering Adult ADHD Challenges
Vast numbers of adults live with undiagnosed or untreated ADHD due to a lack of awareness and understanding about the condition in the past. Challenges such as chronic forgetfulness and high distractibility often disrupt the ability to achieve life goals and maintain healthy relationships. - Embracing Adaptive Behaviors for ADHD

“QADHD people think multi-directionally, whereas non-ADHD people tend to think more linearly. So we’re going to come up with creative solutions. We’re going to spot potential risks and problems that other people won’t come across until they get there.”
