🎉 WE DID IT - EPISODE 100! 🎉

Have you ever started a goal only to quit halfway through? You're definitely not alone. In this milestone episode, I'm sharing the exact 4-stage system that got me to 100 podcast episodes and how you can apply it to finally stick with your big goals.

Here's what we're covering:

The truth about why the "middle" of big goals feels so dangerous with ADHD, and why that shaky feeling isn't a red flag - it's actually proof you're exactly where you need to be.

My spinning plates analogy that changed everything about how I approach multiple goals without letting my life fall apart.

The 4 stages from courage to confidence:

  • Courage - Doing it scared (and why it's supposed to feel bad)
  • Commitment - Deciding it's happening no matter what
  • Consistency - The long game approach with proper support
  • Confidence - The surprisingly normal feeling you earn

Plus, I'm sharing how I'm applying this exact system to my current fitness goal and why lowering the stakes (not raising them) is the secret to success.

Key takeaway: Goal sustainability might be the single most important executive function skill for ADHD adults.
