✨ If your brain moves faster than the world around you, if you’re tired of trying to fix yourself instead of understanding yourself, or if you just want to feel seen, understood, and a little less alone, you’re exactly where you’re meant to be.

Welcome back to Season 6 of the ADHD Untangled Podcast 🧡

In this first episode, Rosie swaps the host seat for the hot seat as her friend (and fellow Untangler) Shareefa takes the mic. Together, they talk openly about the messy, beautiful truth behind ADHD Untangled addiction, recovery, relationships, shame, and how movement became Rosie’s anchor when everything else fell apart.

It’s honest, funny, and full of those moments that make you feel seen.

🧠 What we’re Untangling:

✨ The chaos before diagnosis

💬 Shame, impulsivity and self-sabotage

🧘 Movement as medicine

❤️ ADHD & relationships

💡 Why sharing your story heals more than self-help ever could

💫 Why listen:

Because this episode is a reminder that you were never broken - you just needed to understand your brain and see yourself differently.

Hey Untanglers! 

This week, I'm so excited to bring SUCH an important topic back to the podcast and one that is rarely talked about: missing periods and how ADHD and lifestyle choices might be playing a bigger role than you’d think... 

Dr Sykes is an author, scientist, and expert when it comes to understanding hypothalamic amenorrhea (HA). Nicola’s mission, following her own struggle with HA,  is to help people regain their periods, nourish their bodies, and ditch the stress-filled culture of over-exercising and under-eating.

We’ll talk about:

• How ADHD’s intensity can fuel disordered eating and extreme behaviours
• The link between HA, stress, and that sneaky cortisol…
• Why “fueling your body” isn’t just a catchphrase - it’s the game changer you need.
• Nicola’s practical tips for getting untangled and healthy again (hint: carbs are your friend 
  ).
• The emotional rollercoaster of recovery, self-acceptance, and… dating while healing.

This is a very raw and real episode for both me and Nicola as we share our personal struggles, as well as the laughs, revelations, and “a-ha!” moments we had throughout.

If you’ve ever felt lost in a sea of diet culture, or wondered if stress and ADHD are affecting your wellbeing, this episode might just be the missing piece which makes the full picture make sense… So listen in and let’s get untangled and show the world what we’re made of!

You can find out more about Dr Sykes work, including her book, support groups and consultations through her website.

Have you ever felt the need to change who you are in order to fit in?

me too!

And I’ve spent so many years hectically running around this world trying to be everything and everyone else but my true myself

Party girl, house wife, rebel, addict, yogi…. To name a few

None of it ever did.

But two things in my life that have allowed me to live a more meaningful and authentic life and that is Yoga & My ADHD Diagnosis, which is why I am on a Mission to support as many individuals with ADHD to turn their struggle into strength with ADHD through Movement & ADHD Coaching.

In today's ADHD Rewind I'm re-Introducing our extraordinary guest, a figure I've eagerly awaited on this podcast since it began—a true hero in my eyes.

Ladies and gentlemen, please join us in welcoming the remarkable Professor James Brown!

Not only is Professor James Brown one of the esteemed hosts of the ADHD Adults podcast, but he also wears the hat of a charity owner and is the proud spouse of a previous ADHD Untangled guest, the incredible Mrs. ADHD.

With over two decades of dedicated research into the intricate world of hormones, James is a true authority on the subject. Given some recent personal challenges I've faced and the shared struggles of our friends and clients, it was imperative that we tapped into his wealth of knowledge. Engaging in a conversation about hormones was genuinely enlightening, and James's passion for the topic was evident throughout our discussion.

A profound revelation for me was discovering that hormones play a pivotal role in virtually every aspect of our lives. This episode offered me reassurance in understanding that the ebb and flow of emotions and experiences, whether throughout the month or our life journey, is perfectly normal. It's not merely us feeling like we're on an emotional rollercoaster; hormones are at the heart of this intricate process.

Get the tissues out as this  episode is a tear jerker as James shares honestly and openly  about his own struggles and strengths with ADHD,  sharing his passion and determination for helping others through his podcast.
 
It was an absolute honour and pleasure to interview James and was extremely comforting to know that YES hormones affect every aspect of your life and solidifies the notion that it is OK not to feel OK sometimes!

I really hope that you enjoy this one and fall in love with the absolutely amazing Professor James Brown!

Hey Untanglers! 

This week I’m looking back to my revealing chat with the amazing Sarah Templeton! Sarah is one of the most passionate ADHD advocates I have ever met and she's on a serious mission to shake up what we know about ADHD, especially in prisons.

Sarah shares some jaw-dropping stats, including up to 90% of people in prison might have ADHD! Let that sink in… 

But here’s the epic part: Sarah’s working tirelessly to turn so many lives around in huge ways, with some of her clients going from prison to becoming lawyers, footballers, and chefs. Oh, and did I mention she’s authored super helpful books for parents and teachers as well as launched the ADHD Liberty charity too. 

Sarah is true inspiration for the community and is here to empower us all to show up and fight for ourselves and others. So take a listen, get Untangled and show the world what you’re made of!

You can catch the full interview here.

Is ADHD medication right for me?
Do I have to take it every single day?
Am I a failure if I decide to stop?

These are the questions so many of us quietly carry around — and in this episode, I sit down with Joseph Pack, founder of Drug Free ADHD, to bring them out into the open.

Together, we untangle:

🧡 The hidden risks of long-term medication — from sleep disruption to chronic illness.
🧡 The shame stories around starting, stopping, or changing meds (and why none of it means failure).
🧡 Heart rate variability (HRV) as a simple way to see how your body is really coping.
🧡 Why “one-size-fits-all” ADHD care is dangerous — and what a personalised approach can look like.
🧡 The power of lived experience over textbook answers — and why sometimes, you’ve just got to “make it exist first.”

This isn’t about being pro- or anti-medication. It’s about real talk, no judgement, and giving you the knowledge and permission to make informed choices that actually work for your life.

ADHD and yoga my two favourite subjects. And this week, I get to speak to one of my yoga heroes: Dianne Bondy social justice activist, author, accessible yoga teacher and founder of the Yoga For All movement.

Dianne is revolutionising yoga by making it genuinely inclusive and welcoming everyone, regardless of size, shape, background, or ability.

As a yoga teacher with ADHD, she shares how her practice helps manage ADHD symptoms, regulate her nervous system, and create moments of stillness in a fast-moving brain.

 In this episode, we explore: 

🧡 Yoga as a powerful tool for ADHD focus and emotional regulation 

🧡 Leading and teaching with a neurodivergent brain 

🧡 Designing inclusive wellness spaces where every body and mind belongs

This conversation couldn’t be more aligned with my own mission. It’s exactly why I created the ADHD Yoga Foundation Training to support teachers in breaking barriers and building spaces where ADHD and neurodivergent students feel seen, safe, and included.

Dianne’s story is a reminder that ADHD brains deserve tools that honour how we experience the world and yoga can be one of the most transformative of those tools.

From soldier to adventurer, TV personality to Army Cadet ambassador, Jordan Wylie MBE has spent his life turning pain into purpose. In this episode, we dive into the ADHD traits that have fuelled his relentless drive – and the moments they’ve almost broken him.

What we untangle:

• How ADHD shows up in relationships and the patterns Jordan had to face
  
  
• Work addiction, ambition, and the “can’t stop, won’t stop” brain
  
  
• Unmasking, finding empathy, and learning to value peace over constant chasing
  
  
• Why failure isn’t something to fear but the fuel for growth
  
  
• The education system, the dangers of social media validation, and the reality for ADHD teens
  
  
• Why the outdoors has become his therapy and his take on “green” and “blue” therapy
  
  
• The fire round: the mask he’s ditched, when he feels most like himself, and whether he’d choose life with or without ADHD

If you’ve ever felt like you had to keep proving yourself, or you’re still figuring out how to slow down without losing who you are, this one is for you.

Left school with one GCSE.
Felt stupid for most of his life.
Nearly ended up in jail.
Now he’s a Royal Marine Commando, psychologist, author and doing a PhD on decision-making and belief systems.

This episode with Gareth Timmins isn’t about ticking boxes or fitting in.
It’s about what happens when you stop proving your worth to the world — and start building a life that actually fits you.

We Untangle...

• ADHD without a diagnosis and what it felt like.
• School, shame, and feeling like you were already failing before you even began
• Masculinity, masking, and the pressure to be “the strong one”
• The dark side of discipline — and what real self-trust looks like.
• Rejection, RSD, and why feeling undervalued can flip your whole life.
• Life after sport — chasing highs, losing identity, and starting again.

Why breaking down doesn’t mean you’re broken.

If you’ve ever walked away from something and called it failure  this one’s for you. 

“I’m not fragile. I’m not a failure. I just needed the right conditions to grow.”

What if the very thing you thought would end you became the reason you’re still here?

This episode reminded me of the original why behind this podcast.

ADHD Untangled was created to give hope. To empower. To prove that the very struggle that once made us feel broken can become our greatest strength. To reach the ones who are still in the middle of it — in the thick of addiction, shame, self-destruction — and remind them that it’s not too late. You are not too far gone.

In this powerful conversation, I sit down with writer, activist and adventurer Kit Birks just days before she sets off to walk the entire length of Europe solo. Her mission? To raise awareness around suicide, ADHD and the stories we’re told to keep silent about.

Kit shares her raw and honest story — from battling depression, eating disorders and addiction, to getting diagnosed with ADHD in recovery and finally realising she wasn’t broken, just misunderstood.

We explore the link between dopamine and destruction, how masking and emotional pain lead us into addiction, and how movement, nature and meaning can help us come back home to ourselves.

This one is deep, real and needed.

🧠 In this episode we cover:

• ADHD, addiction and the missing dopamine piece
  
  
• How emotional dysregulation, masking and shame fuel destructive behaviours
  
  
• The life-changing power of diagnosis and self-compassion
  
  
• The recovery process: messy, honest and ongoing
  
  
• Using movement and nature to reconnect with yourself
  
  
• Kit’s year-long solo walk across Europe for suicide prevention
  
  
• The stories we carry and why we need to tell them

🎧 Listen if:

• You’ve ever felt broken or like you didn’t belong
  
  
• You’re navigating addiction, recovery or mental health struggles
  
  
• You want to understand the real link between ADHD and self-destruction
  
  
• You’re ready to hear a story of hope that doesn’t skip the hard parts
