In this week’s episode of "Real Insight," host Myke Ireland sits down with an old colleague, Mark O’Connor, the dynamic CEO of Steinway Galleries Australia.

Myke and Mark first crossed paths at Allans Music, where Mark was the National Piano Manager. For Myke, it was his first corporate job, and Mark, a seasoned veteran, naturally became a mentor figure.

Their conversation delves into Mark's journey, highlighting how his personal friend and mentor, Lindsay Fox, played a crucial role in his professional and personal growth. They also reminisce about their childhoods and shared work experiences, providing a candid look into their lives.

In this latest episode of "Real Insight," Myke Ireland sits down with Katie Underwood to discuss a topic close to their hearts—growing up with undiagnosed ADHD. 🫠

For kids like Myke and Katie, having ADHD and not knowing it meant being labeled as "bad kids"—distracted, interrupting, and unable to settle down. But the truth is, they wanted to behave and fit in.

Myke and Katie delve into how this impacted their childhoods and the struggles they faced. They share personal stories of how being misunderstood affected their self-esteem and relationships with peers and teachers. They also discuss the relief and clarity that came with finally receiving an ADHD diagnosis as adults.

This episode is a poignant reminder of the importance of understanding and supporting children with ADHD. It's not about being "bad"—it's about needing the right support and strategies to thrive. Myke and Katie’s conversation is both eye-opening and heartwarming, offering valuable insights for anyone who has experienced or knows someone with ADHD.
