22: ADHD Isn’t a Flaw: How to Work With Your Brain, Not Against It


Listen Later

If you’ve ever felt like your brain just works differently and wondered why you’re constantly exhausted, forgetful, or overwhelmed despite “doing all the things”, this conversation is for you. In this episode, Jessica Covington, master-certified coach in life, health, and neuroscience (and a fellow mom with a fancy ADHD brain), joins me to talk about the realities of executive dysfunction, late diagnoses in women, and how shame and internalized messages keep us stuck. We unpack her Four Elements of ADHD Alchemy™, discuss what burnout looks like for high-functioning women, and explore real-life ways to work with your brain instead of against it. Whether or not you have an official diagnosis, you’ll walk away feeling seen and supported.
