Capacity-O-Meter: How to Do Anything When Everything's Too Much


Listen Later

When everything feels urgent and your brain hits shutdown mode, traditional to-do list strategies just don’t cut it—especially for ADHD brains. In this episode, Kamden introduces a powerful, compassionate method for getting things done based on capacity, not pressure.

You’ll learn a simple yet transformative framework to help you sort your tasks by the mental, emotional, and physical energy they require—so you can stop spinning and start moving. Whether you’re a student, parent, homemaker, or professional, this method helps you reclaim your day without burning out.

Expect practical examples, a fresh take on productivity (spoiler: it’s not about doing the hardest thing first), and permission to honor your energy without guilt. This is the episode you’ll want to bookmark for every chaotic week ahead.

Listen in and discover:

  • Why ADHD overwhelm often leads to inaction

  • How to rate tasks by energy required, not just urgency

  • What a realistic daily “capacity budget” looks like

  • How to build momentum and protect your executive function

  • Why rest and recovery aren’t optional—they’re strategic
