We’re on a mission to bring the silly back to WOAF, starting with next episode because this one actually gets kind of serious once we get all the vampire cannibal talk out of the way.

Lately Kristin has been on a real kick of using exercise to quiet the chaos of her ADHD mind and now she’s ready to make us all hear about it. She’s covering the biochemistry behind why exercise is so helpful to our ADHD brains, what the experts recommend for maximum benefits, how to start a routine you won’t completely hate, and her best tips for overcoming some of the many barriers to movement. 

Whether exercising feels dull AF to your brain, is an overwhelming sensory experience for your body, or you just don’t wanna, we’ll inspire you to get back on that hobby horse with our sage words of wisdom that you can’t find anywhere else*. 

*Obviously this is a joke and you can find this information literally anywhere else.
