EP. 176: ADHD and Being a Smart Ass in Male-Dominated Fields with Danyell DiLena

ADHD for Smart Ass Women with Tracy Otsuka

I always love talking with ADHD women who are making waves in positions traditionally held by men, so when my guest in this episode, Danyell DiLena, mentioned she was kicking ass in not one but two male-dominated fields, I knew I had to have her on to share her story.

Danyell’s journey hasn’t been easy—she’s had to deal with sexism both in her career as a medic and on the literal field as a baseball coach—but her determination, creativity, and resiliency have made her an unstoppable force when she sets her mind to something. For the past 5 years, she has served as the first female Coach Coordinator for District 33 in San Diego, where she’s in charge of thousands of baseball teams. Even since recording this conversation, she has been offered a new position managing an all-girls U-16 baseball team to take to the Nationals Tournament; seriously, she’s unstoppable.

Danyell is passionate about empowering women and girls to feel like they can succeed in any area they choose, gender barriers be damned, and I know her words will empower you too.
