  • Ep. #30: How to Break Hyper Focus with Rest

    If you are someone who feels the need to be constantly “on” in their business and feels so guilty when they take time off, this episode is for you!

     

    In today’s episode of the ADHD Refresh Podcast, we will talk about how powerful rest is for the ADHD brain. When you take time off to rest, you allow your brain to replenish and clear out so much space for new ideas and allow it to gear up for more productive work. 

     

    This is the most requested episode topic and when you listen you’ll discover why!

     

    What you’ll learn in today’s episode:

    • How to come out of hyperfocus 
  • How decreased stress improves focus
  • How rest will allow you to be more successful in your business


  • Key takeaways:

    When you take time off to rest, you give your brain the break it needs so it can come out of the hyperfocus tunnel. As a result, your brain will function better, you'll sleep better and you won’t be in a constant state of stress. You will be more creative, and you will have more clarity about what needs to be done to move the needle forward. 

     

    Your business won’t die if you rest. In fact, I can tell you how rest is going to change the trajectory of your business, but I won't. I’ll let you discover that for yourself.

    I know you might be thinking, “AnnMarie, how does freaking imposter syndrome help me grow my biz?” after you listen to this episode, you will know how to leverage imposter syndrome to help you grow your biz.

     

    In today’s episode of the ADHD Refresh Podcast, we will talk about the imposter syndrome-- the little voice inside your head that can make or break your business. You can choose to let imposter syndrome propel you forward, so it’s actually helping you grow your business, and not the other way around.

     

    When you listen to this episode, you will find out the exact steps to shift yourself so you can make imposter syndrome work FOR you, instead of against you. 

     

    What you’ll learn in today’s episode:

    • Why ADHDers have wild, crazy imposter syndrome
  • Why you are never going to get rid of imposter syndrome
  • How you can take action now


  • Key takeaways:

    You are never going to get at a level where imposter syndrome doesn’t exist. It is going to show up in many, different forms as you and your business grow and level up. Imposter syndrome is not your truth, and it’s never going to be. You were able to move through imposter syndrome in the past, which means you have proof that you can do it again! 

     

    You are a magical unicorn, and the world needs you exactly how you are today. Don’t let your imposter syndrome tell you otherwise.

    When you have your intention set on building a badass business - It’s inevitable that you are going to have clients. But what happens after you sign one?

     

    In today’s episode of the ADHD Refresh Podcast, we invited Elena to share her expertise with us.

She is on a mission to professionalize the online space one contract at a time.

    Your business is a legal structure from day 1 so contracts are not a luxury - they are a necessity.

Carrying out those terms stated in your contract until the end of your client relationship will help you professionalize your client journey.

  • Ep. #26: Business Benefits of Hypnosis w/ Tina Madsen Part 2

    Are you someone that finds yourself using distractions to avoid doing the things you don’t want to do?

     

    In today’s episode of the ADHD Refresh Podcast, we invited Tina Madsen again for a part 2 on how incredible our brains are.  In this episode, we talk about how our emotions drive us towards or away from action everyday. And, how your conscious, subconscious and unconscious mind play a role in all of this. 

     

    When you understand your brain and WHY you distract yourself it makes it easier to create a game plan to move through the tasks you have been avoiding. Tina shares her brain-based expertise to help us create self-awareness so we can move through our trigger easier.

     

    So we can start to break unconscious patterns that are holding us back from being successful in business. This helps peel back layers of your experiences and beliefs that are holding you back from taking action right now.

     

    When you listen to this episode you will discover how you can avoid the cycle of distracting yourself that is preventing you from being a Powerful CEO!

     

    What you’ll learn in today’s episode:

    • How the “feel bad distraction” cycle is keeping you stuck
  • How your neurons in the right and left prefrontal complex play major processes
  • How awareness of your thoughts is such a critical part of breaking down these distraction patterns


  • Key takeaways:

    “Neurons that fire together, wire together”. You brain wants to help you thrive but it doesn’t know the difference between helpful and unhelpful thought patterns. When we have experiences in our life that happen to us, we make meaning of those events. And if we made something mean “I am not good enough” or “I am not worthy” then this story plays out in our life and prevents us from actually showing up as we need to so we can be successful.  When you learn how to change your story/thoughts consciously and subconsciously, things become so much EASIER to show up as the person we can be.

     

    We help you with all of this and MORE in the ADHD Business University. Where you discover how to fully become the best version of yourself as a CEO and you learn all the bad ass skills you need to have a thriving business. Visit www.annmarieespina.com/adhd-business-university to apply!
