ADHD Diversified

On this episode, I go through some verbal processing about goals, failure, and reframing failure. These seem to be recurring themes for me this year, so why not keep processing it? I hope this is helpful for anyone who listens, too! - - -Visit our website: https://adhddiversified.caEmail me: [email protected] MJ and the rest of the ADHD reWired Podcast Family for a live Q&A every second Tuesday of the month!

I'm restarting the 3-Wins-per-Day challenge -- but with an addition! Did you join me earlier this year for this challenge? Did you try this challenge but fell off the wagon? Did you intent to try out this challenge but then forgot about it? Then join me - again - - to write down three wins per day and three things you're thankful for or grateful for every day - - starting from October 17th (or the day you happen to be listening to this) until the end of 2022!

One of the "lovely" traits of ADHD is that we tend to be good at being consistently inconsistent. (In this case, I'll speak for myself.) We have our ups and downs, life can be predictably unpredictable, and getting stuck in a slump seems to be one of my specialties. In this episode, I hope you are reminded that no matter where you are or what you're doing, whether you're feeling unmotivated, directionless, or drained, whatever it is you're feeling - it doesn't make you weak.Thanks...

Over a month ago, I proposed a challenge: From May 27th until June 30th, 2022, I was going to journal and list three wins every single day. Did I manage to write three wins every day? Did you join me in this challenge? In this episode, I reflect on the lessons learned behind attempting this challenge, my emotional state working through this while I was sick, and why I believe writing down a win every once in a while is useful. This exercise was inspired by one of...

I'm finally getting momentum with my podcast again and am mostly recovered from being sick. On this episode, I address the guilt I've felt when resting or engaging in self-care, the rejection of self, and how that mindset was adopted.If you need to get some rest or start engaging in more self-care activities, I hope this episode inspires you to do that. Self-care is not selfish, and your self-care matters! - - -Visit our website: https://adhddiversified.caEmail me...

We all have different ways of learning and have all taken different paths to get to where we are today. In our uniqueness, we've developed different skills and talents, we've acquired different tools and have our own areas of genius and knowledge. I share my thoughts about our unique ways of learning, our unique ways of applying ourselves, and why the tools we use (and how we utilize them) may not be useful for everyone. - - -Visit our website: https://adhddiversified.caEmail me: mj@adh...

First it was allergies. Then, I got sick. So I didn't record anything for a while. Even though I was still sick at the time of this recording and posting, I decided to talk about it. In this episode, I talk about the emotions, old stories, and struggles that came up for me when I was at my sickest, then I decided to talk about how I'm continuing to make it through and why I keep going.

Historically, I've been quick to look at my failures instead of acknowledging my successes. For me, my ADHD has had me fall down a lot, and I sometimes (ok - often) forget that I've gotten back up more times I've tumbled over. I also find it difficult accepting others' acknowledgements of the things I've achieved because my beliefs and feelings around personal success and failure used to be rooted in binary thinking. Even though it's getting easier now, it's still difficult ...

I used to not believe in community because I'd been a part of communities where I felt more silenced than empowered. In this episode, I touch on the importance of community and the impact of being in the right community has had on me. For me, finding community started with ADHD reWired's Coaching & Accountability Groups at CoachingreWired.com. - - -Visit our website: https://adhddiversified.caEmail me: [email protected] MJ and the rest of the ADHD reWired Podcast Famil...
