#17 — Hunter in a Farmers World | Thom Hartmann
Manage episode 426055140 series 3582929
My interview with Thom Hartmann, author of Hunter in a Farmers World.
What an honour.
Hunters in a Farmers World is my favourite book on ADHD. The only book on ADHD I’ve read multiple times. This book completely changed my perspective on ADHD. From that of a disorder, an illness, a problem. Into a benefit.
It’s hard to put into words how much Thom’s view of ADHD has influenced how I do business, how I live my life, and how I help people manage ADHD with skills (not pills).
In the interview we talk about:
- How Thom developed the idea of Hunters in a Farmers world
- Experimental school (where kids go at their own pace) and how the traditional schooling system is built for farmers not hunters.
- How he was attacked by Russell Barkley for trying to make people with ADHD feel good
- How to avoid becoming a victim of the ADHD industry
- Why ADHD meds are wildly over-prescribed
- And much much more
