Tip of the ADHD Iceberg
An adult's guide to embracing the hidden layers of your neurodivergence
A compassionate guide for everyone grappling with their neurodiversity
Accepting a label or receiving a formal diagnosis is only the tip of the iceberg when it comes to neurodivergence. Your ADHD doesn't exist in a vacuum: your upbringing, your culture, your relationships and any other conditions you might have, such as autism, depression or anxiety, all affect your experience as a neurodivergent individual. Navigating these intersecting areas can be challenging - but it isn't impossible.
Tip of the ADHD Iceberg offers a sensitive exploration of the nuances of neurodiversity, preparing you for the whirlwind that can come after a late diagnosis and equipping you with the essential tools for self-advocacy. In this book, ADHD Girls Founder and award-winning keynote speaker Dr Sam Hiew expertly blends her lived experience of ADHD and autism with her background in medical science to create a deeply empathetic guide to processing your diagnosis in the context of your whole life, from your personal relationships to the workplace environment.
Affirming, vindicating and empowering, you will learn to heal from a life of flying under the radar as well as how to prepare yourself for the road ahead.

Publishing has a diversity problem. There are less 'diverse' books being published which limits the discoverability and reach of those authors.
Representation is important. Read more about why we exist here.
An anti-racist social enterprise bookstore specialising in BIPOC books.
Only about 11% of books published are by BIPOC authors — so unless you specifically seek out books by BIPOC authors, you aren't likely to find very many of them organically. At Amplify, BIPOC authors are highlighted and celebrated. Here, they don't have to fight to be seen, and you don't have to fight to find them.
We hope that in our shop, you can discover a new favourite read, find stories that speak uniquely to you, learn about a culture outside your own (or more about your own histories), and gain a better understanding of the systems that connect us all.
