After losing work at the start of the pandemic, she began making TikToks about living with ADHD and depression. Her official bio says the account passed 1.5 million followers in a little over a year.
The conversations she makes room for.
Her work connects ADHD with relationships, communication, sex, and intimacy. She hosts Sorry, I Missed This for Understood.org and co-hosted Catie and Erik’s Infinite Quest with Erik Gude. Her publisher also credits her as a Playboy advisor on intimacy and neurodiversity.
Putting it on the page.
In 2026, Cate, Erik Gude, and Rennie Dyball published The ADHD Field Guide for Adults. Gallery Books describes it as an instant national bestseller. Cate has said she wanted the book to include conversations often left out of ADHD resources, including intimacy and marginalized identities.
