  • 137: ADHD: The Inattentive Side (Part 1)

    Send us Fan Mail

    This week were talking about ADHD and the symptoms of inattention. It’s easy to glance at the DSM checklist and think, “That’s not me.” But when you really look at how these symptoms show up in everyday life? Suddenly it’s very relatable.

    We’re breaking down inattentive ADHD in a way that actually makes sense with real-life examples and a few funny (okay, slightly chaotic) relatiable stories of how it shows up for us. Join us for some fun and laughter!

    This week, we’re diving headfirst into the ADHD energy surge that comes with spring and summer. The sun’s out, our brains are buzzing, and the hyperactivity is in full swing.

  • 134: ADHD – The “Start Everything, Finish Nothing” Struggle

    Send us Fan Mail

    This week, we’re diving into one of the most frustrating ADHD habits: starting a million things… and finishing none of them. 

    We talk about how we can get 90% of the way through something and then completely abandon it, either forever, or until a deadline forces us to panic-finish the last 10% out of fear, shame, and pressure. Why does this happen? 
    Can we do anything to fix this?  Let’s unpack the chaos together.

  • 130. ADHD - Why Is My To Do List Not Getting Any Smaller?

    Send us Fan Mail

    This is the million dollar question isn’t it? 😅 You start with the best intentions—maybe even organize everything neatly—but instead of getting shorter, your to-do list somehow keeps growing. It’s like every task you finish magically creates two more. 

     This week, we’re diving into the ADHD struggle with productivity—why starting is hard, finishing is harder, and how even the best-laid plans can turn into chaos. From task paralysis to the never-ending dopamine chase, we’re breaking down why our to-do lists never seem to shrink??

     Grab a coffee and let’s figure this out together!
