Identity - winging it

25: Packing Chaos and My Neurodivergent Brain


Listen Later

In this short and sweet episode, I’m diving into the chaos of packing while navigating the constant battle between my autism and ADHD. From half-finished tasks to a house that looks like a tornado hit it, I’m sharing the reality of trying to stay on track when my brain is pulling me in a million directions.


I’ll talk about:

• The challenges of executive dysfunction during big tasks

• How I’m using lists, timers, and rewards to keep myself moving

• The balance between wanting perfect organization (hello, autism!) and the chaos of ADHD


If you’re neurodivergent and have ever felt like your brain is working against you, this one’s for you. Remember, progress doesn’t have to be perfect, and you’re not alone in the mess.
