💡 From Hustle to Burnout and Back Again


What happens when the drive to “do more” collides with ADHD? In this episode, Aaron and Stephen sit down with Eric Tivers, licensed clinical social worker, founder of ADHD Rewired, and host of one of the most successful ADHD podcasts with 500+ episodes.


Eric shares his raw journey from 90-hour work weeks, scaling too fast, and losing $100K in a year, to confronting burnout, exploring his identity, and rediscovering what it means to live with sustainable energy.


🎙️ Together we explore:

  • The overlooked signs of burnout ADHDers often miss
  • Why hustle culture is toxic for neurodivergent brains
  • How perfectionism and pressure push us past our limits
  • Learning to hit the “Nope” button and let go lightly
  • Re-centering on values, community, and sustainable energy


Eric’s story goes beyond productivity hacks: it’s about survival, healing, and choosing life beyond burnout.
