YouTube personality Jessica McCabe has her ADHD to thank for the success of her "How to ADHD" informational channel, which currently boasts more than 200,000 subscribers. Her large online following has since amassed an ADHD community that inspires wider acceptance and support for the less conventional ways of learning.
In a 2017 TED Talk, Jessica shared her success story about grappling with ADHD and how she ultimately stumbled into her successful career educating others and inspiring fellow "ADHD brains" to embrace the special advantages of their condition. "ADHD brains have a lot to offer the world. We tend to be generous, funny, [and] creative," said Jessica. "ADHD'ers are 300 percent more likely to start their own business. We not only think outside the box — we're often not even aware there is a box."
