As Donovan's audience grows, she makes sure her message to people with ADHD stays clear. "You are different and not broken," she said. "You do not need to be fixed." She wants her audience to know that they're capable of making positive changes in their life, but they don't have to. "You don't have to force yourself to do anything before you're ready."
This message of self-acceptance is important for people with ADHD to hear, she said. She wants to help people get to the point where they're not feeling disappointed in themselves over the way ADHD affects their lives. "The disappointment in yourself is really what hurts," she said. "I want to help guide people through this process of understanding themselves, so they can forgive themselves, so they can accept themselves."
