Listen Later

If you’ve been told your whole life that you’re disorganised, unreliable or bad at time management, this episode will help you see what’s really going on in your ADHD brain & give you tools to work with it instead of beating yourself up.


Inside the episode, we cover:

  • What time blindness actually is for ADHD brains
  • How it shows up in real life, from late fees to missed bedtime to “oops, I forgot that Zoom call”
  • Why our executive functions (working memory, planning & prioritising) make it hard to feel time
  • The role of dopamine & why “feel good now” keeps winning over Future You
  • 5 practical ways to support time blindness & improve your relationship with time
