All The Things ADHD

Ok, so Time-Blindness and ADHD Wait Mode got the best of me and I forgot to edit the next two episodes and upload them, etc, before leaving for NOLA. So now I’m writing all of this, which is the only thing standing in the way of me and Cajun food. That doesn’t help you to… Read more S4 E13: What if, wait for it, we didn’t have to fundamentally change who we are to be successful?

Hey everyone! We’re back and literally we are worse for wear. I got COVID and Aimée had major facial trauma. And we talk about it, our experience, and our insights into what happened to us both on the outside and on the inside, as well as what this says about ableism and our attitudes towards… Read more S4 E12: Hope Your Holiday Was Better Than Ours

This one is short and sweet. Aimée has been felled by the holidays and the end of the semester, so I just recorded a short holiday wish for y’all, and thank you for listening and coming on this journey with us. We’ll be taking a short holiday/getting started with the semester break, and be back… Read more S4 E11: A Holiday Wish For You

…One of these things is kinda the same. Aimée and I decided to dig into what makes our podcast different from other ADHD podcasts hosted by women (no shade!). And while that makes us unique, it also makes us more than a little transgressive but WDGAF. Seriously, this was a fun one. Penultimate episode before… Read more S4 E10: One Of These Things Is Not Like The Other…

Aimée and I talk about not being able to finish things. All things. Many important things. Things where we are 98% there but just. can’t. get. over. the. finish. line. If you’ve ever struggled to get things done-done, and been made to feel bad about it, this is the episode for you. If you love… Read more S4 E9: Can I Finish? CAN I FINISH?

Aimée and I talk more about surviving the holidays, and we share more of our own holiday stories. This was recorded the week before American Thanksgiving, so we hope that if you are in the States, you had a good celebration in whatever way you celebrate. My own silly season has just started, between theater… Read more S4 E8: The One Where I Am Someone Else’s Holiday Memory

So…it’s mid-November (AAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!) which means the holiday season is upon us, whether we’re ready or not. And most of us, admittedly, aren’t. And those of us with ADHD, well… Aimée and I talk about how we set up boundaries, negotiate compromises, and generally try to make the holidays merry instead of…whatever they turn out to… Read more S4 E7: Surviving the Holidays

Well. Shit happens, and when shit happens (or, rather, we make the shit that is happening), as I say in the episode, “There ain’t no spiral like an ADHD spiral.” Or something like that. We’re getting into the hard stuff, because of RSD and the ADHD brain and societal pressure and, and, and, and…when we… Read more S4 E6: When We (Inevitably) Fall

Hey everyone, you’re actually going to get show notes today! My piece in CHE that caused the “hangover.” Better Son/Daughter by Rilo Kiley (I was freaking close!) Anyway, today’s episode is about a kind of hangover that those of us who are neurodivergent can feel after a “big thing” (read: thing that causes a spike… Read more S4 E5: The Neurodivergent Hangover

Look, I’m running out of clever titles for these. I’m on a deadline. And it’s early. And I’ve run out of coffee. We’re picking up where we left off (or at least where Aimée forgot we left off) and talking about how to have productive conversations about neurodivergence and difference. It actually shares a lot… Read more S4 E4: Two Educators Walked Into A Productive Discussion…
