All The Things ADHD

So this is a really REALLY specific Canadian reference. There was an interstitial show called “BodyBreak” in the late 80s/early 90s that encouraged exercise and movement for healthy living. My God, I just fell down this YouTube wormhole. They have a whole freaking channel. I had no idea they were still making these. Anyway, today… Read more S3 E11: BODYBREAK!

CW: Food, diet culture. This is Part II of our conversation about good and eating and ADHD. But there are multiple asides first, about picking and feeling feelings about this podcast and all of you. I promised show notes in the episode, so here you go: The tweet that led to my first public admission… Read more S3 E10: Vulnerable

CW: food, diet culture, weight. This is an episode topic that I’ve wanted to do for a while. We do out best to have a hard conversation about food, eating, medication, stigma, and shame in way that is open, honest, and kind. But as Aimée says at the beginning of the episode, if this isn’t… Read more S3 E9: You Aren’t What You Eat

This is the second part of our conversation on transitions, and sometimes we just feel stuck. And it sucks. So we laugh at ourselves, including building in forgetting to eat so that we remember to end the podcast recording, or else we would get (pleasantly) stuck talking and talking and talking and talking… Sorry if… Read more S3 E8: Stuck

Transitions. Why are the so freaking *hard* for those of us with ADHD? From being chronically late to unable to start projects to just not showering (guilty!), we all struggle moving from one thing to the next. Aimée and I spend the next two episodes talking about our own struggles with transitions and what we… Read more S3 E7: From One Thing To The Next

Part deux of our conversation about rest. Stick around to the very end when we get really, really silly. And how TF is it the last day of April already? Transcript.

Yeah, I put REST in all-caps because it’s the thing that many of us, but especially those of us with ADHD are bad at. Maybe this image that crossed my social media view after we had recorded this episode sounds familiar, but it is also literally what Aimée describes early in the episode. The image… Read more S3 E5: REST

In part two our our discussions about inclusivity in the workplace, Aimée and I talk about how to have the hard conversations around accommodations, inclusivity, and building trust. Spoiler alert: we don’t have an easy answer, but if we don’t trust one another, then nothing else will really matter. Still no idea where my template… Read more S3 E4: Hard Conversations About Inclusive Practices

In this episode, in honor of us recording it on April 2, which was Autism Awareness Day, we discuss this year’s theme which was inclusivity (which my spell-check doesn’t even recognize as a word, so that should tell you something). We talk about what inclusivity could look like moving forward, post-pandemic, when we return to… Read more S3 E3: What Does Inclusivity Look Like?

Ok, the title of this episode is a bit of a misnomer because we only really talk about that fact (THAT OUR LITTLE PODCAST HAS BEEN DOWLOADED OVER TWENTY THOUSAND TIMES!) at the end. The majority of the podcast is about the hobbies we picked up, or started up again, during the pandemic. But seriously.… Read more S3 E2: Can You Believe It? 20K Downloads!
