Living with ADHD is like embarking on a complex mission from your kitchen floor. In this episode, Michelle and Megan, with their unique perspective, delve into the challenges of living with ADHD. They share their experiences of struggling with tasks that seem simple to others, from vacuuming to understanding 'goblin tools', and the mix of humor and heartache that comes with it.

You’ll hear how Megan’s brain turns task analysis into an intergalactic quest and how Michelle finally learns that“neurospicy” doesn’t involve hot sauce. This episode is a blend of relatable metaphors, personal stories, and honest laughter. They talk about everything from goblin-fueled productivity to the emotional toll of trying to “just do the thing.”
