In this episode, we explore how shame shows up with ADHD — and how it can interfere with progress, motivation, and confidence. Shame loves secrecy. It thrives when we judge ourselves, stop asking questions, and retreat into hiding.
I break down:
-How shame undermines problem-solving
-Why curiosity is the antidote
-Simple but powerful shifts: self-compassion, community, and open inquiry
-Real examples of how to step back from shame and move forward
If shame ever whispers that you're “lazy,” “flaky,” or “just not enough,” I want you to see it as a story — not a fact. There’s more space, more possibility than shame allows.
