Description

To say that this conversation is inspirational and heartfelt, thoughtful and emotional, and fundamentally captures all that this summit intends to convey to our listeners -- well, that’s an understatement. This conversation with Marvyn Harrison offers a fresh perspective on what it means to be an adult diagnosed with ADHD, what it means to be a black man diagnosed with and treated for ADHD, what it means to be a father with ADHD, a partner, an entrepreneur, a thought-leader. You get the picture. This conversation is a meta conversation about ADHD. And while it will appeal to everyone, it’s likely that it will resonate most with the adults with ADHD who are continuously trying to understand and manage themselves. 
 
Marvyn Harrison is a visionary business consultant driving cultural change through BELOVD, working with clients like WPP, Footlocker, and News UK. As the founder of Dope Black Dads and Dope Black Men, he inspires greater change, advocating for the Black community across the UK, US, and Africa. A media contributor on platforms like Good Morning Britain and BBC 5Live, Marvyn has also authored two children’s books, *I Love Me* and *The Best Me,* and is writing a guide on personal transformation for men. His late-life ADHD diagnosis fuels his impactful work.
 
Listen to this Parenting With Impact episode with Marvyn Harrison about fatherhood and undiagnosed ADHD.

Here is what to expect on this week’s show:
Marvyn discusses his journey towards self-discovery and understanding his late-life ADHD diagnosis and the need for conscious in managing the condition.
One crucial tip shared by Marvyn revolves around the importance of being present and tuned in to your children's needs.
Marvyn points out, "There is no program to help men better at home. It's just kind of do it because it's the right thing to do." This calls for a more supportive and inclusive approach to fatherhood, acknowledging the diverse roles and responsibilities that dads undertake.
