Living Beyond ADHD

Hey ADDers!  Do you have trouble "inhibiting" your impulses?  Even though most of the executive function assessments typically look at the behavioral stuff, like blurting out, touching things you shouldn't, cutting people off and more, to me there is so much more to understanding Inhibiting than just the behavioral manifestations.  What about Inhibiting your thoughts and feelings?  By that I mean, do your thoughts and feelings seem to have a mind of their own and "just happen" uninhibited, or do you have a say so in what you think and feel and when you think and feel what you do?  I'm talking about the part of your mind that controls the censoring and regulating aspect of your behaviors, thoughts and feelings.

Living Beyond ADHD, a podcast hosted and produced by Dr B, explores why so many adults with ADHD or Executive Function challenges never get past their challenges and live beyond them.  That's what Dr B's work in the world is really about, and she so want that for you, if you want that too.  You've heard her say many times that you are more than your ADHD; that you are a precious "human being" – even if the "human doing" part of you needs some work and tools.  By identifying the root cause issues, and addressing them, whether that means learning skills, strategies or facing and resolving long-standing problems, you can look to a future where you too are Living Beyond ADHD. 

In this episode Dr B talks about:

• What Is Behavioral Inhibiting and How You Can Develop It
• What Is Thinking Inhibiting and How You Can Develop It
• What Is Emotional Inhibiting and How You Can Develop It
• First Annual 2-Day Training in CA
• The importance of celebrating your WINS

Developing your Executive Function Skills and shifting your limiting beliefs is the fastest and most effective way to overcome ADHD limitations, find focus, gain confidence, and newfound freedom in your life!

My mission is to put an end to the worldwide needless suffering of adults with ADHD and those with under-developed Executive Function Skills - whether from ADHD, chronic depression or anxiety, trauma, addictions, or chronic illnesses.  And, you don't need a formal diagnosis to know you need help developing these executive function skills in order to greatly reduce your suffering.

Hey ADDers!  As adults, we need certain capabilities to succeed in life - this success being things like responsibly raising children, getting and keeping a job, managing a household and contributing to our communities.  Without these capabilities, our successes are iffy at best.  If you know that you're missing Executive Function Skills and Strategies, like Initiating, Planning, Organizing and more, then this episode is for you!!

In this episode Dr B talks about:

• Flaws in Executive Function Assessments
• Importance of both Skills and Strategies
• First Annual 2-Day Training in CA

Let's put an end to the worldwide needless suffering together! We can do this!  

Hey ADDers!  Do you have trouble getting yourself to focus on things you need or want to focus on?  Do you even know what the right things are to be focusing on?  And what about following through?  Is that something that comes easily to you or do you have years of projects or tasks that you never quite followed through on and they are still waiting for their turn for completion?  If I am talking about your life, then this episode is for you!!

So, do you see upcoming, potential disasters ahead of time, like you going over the cliff BEFORE you get anywhere near it?  Are you able to avert something negative BEFORE it happens because you remember what happened the last time?  Are you living a life that is less adrenaline driven because you've learned some important things about yourself?  For many of you the answer is no to most of these questions.  It's like your mind doesn't yet know how to see into the future or benefit from the past. This might be one of the reasons you get into the same trouble over and over again.

In this episode Dr B talks about:

• What hindsight is and how you can develop it
• What foresight is and how you can develop it
• What insight is and how you can develop it
• The importance of celebrating your WINS

Hey ADDers!  Do you struggle with any addictions or have you in the past?  Addictions are a BIG deal for those of us with ADHD and EF deficits for so many different reasons.  In fact, the stats on frequency are about twice that of those adults without ADHD or EF deficits, if these issues aren't being fully addressed.   In this episode, I talk about:

• The nucleus accumbens (pleasure center of the brain)
• How to increase motivation by increasing dopamine rewards
• Binge eating and relationship to ADHD as well as purpose it is serving
• Promoting a part of yourself from within
• The importance of celebrating your WINS

Hey ADDers!  Who do you think you are?  Seriously!!  Is your self-talk positive and encouraging?  Are the stories you tell yourself and others about you positive and encouraging?  Or, are they the kind of statements and stories that are contributing to holding you back and keeping you in an emotional ditch of underachieving and less than status?  Are you as happy as you want to be? If you resonate with any of this, then keep listening!!

Let's put an end to the worldwide needless suffering together! We can do this!  

Hey ADDers! Do you ever wonder about the heritability of ADHD or how your emotions and feelings impact your executive functioning? In fact, do you know the difference between your emotions and your feelings? If yes and no, this episode is for you!!

According to Pema Chodron, an American Tibetan Buddhist and ordained nun, if you allow an emotion to exist for 90 seconds without judging it, it will disappear. According to Jill Bolte Taylor, a neuroanatomist and author of A Brain Scientist's Personal Journey, "once triggered, the chemical released by your brain surges through your body and you have a physiological experience. Within 90 seconds from the initial trigger, the chemical component of anger has completely dissipated from your blood and your automatic response is over. If, however, you remain angry after those 90 seconds have passed, then it is because you have chosen to let that circuit continue to run."

In this episode, I talk about:

• The Heritability of ADHD
• The 90-Second Rule
• Executive Functioning
• Emotions
• Feelings
• The importance of celebrating your WINS

Let's put an end to the worldwide needless suffering together! We can do this!  

Hey ADDers! I'm so glad you could join me today because I'm celebrating. I have four special things to share with you as we move along in this episode.

• First, I have a gift for you. I am gifting you my mini course, The Magical Power of WINS, in the hopes that you will come to a better understanding of the power of WINS through the content in that course. Plus, I'd love to read your comments in the course itself, under each of the videos, as to what you learned and how you will be applying the information. You will find the link in the PDF transcript as well as in the episode description. I hope you will take action and claim your gift of the Magical Power of WINS. It will be available as a free gift until my next Ask Dr B episode releases on Thursday, 10/19/17.  

• Second, I am seriously considering re-branding the name of my show because I don't feel like I am talking about you harnessing your ADHD power, rather I am talking about topics that are beyond your ADHD, such as executive function skills, self-sabotaging behaviors, and how change can actually happen for you. So, the new name I am considering for my show is "Beyond Your ADHD with Dr B." I'd love to know your thoughts on the idea of my re-branding my show and the name I am considering, for the reasons I am considering it. 
• Third, I decided to make some changes to the enrollment process for my innovative program, ADDventures in Achievement. I've re-purposed the Waitlist, so that as soon as you get yourself on the Waitlist, I'll be reaching out to you to find out what your current challenges are and what your goals are, so we can determine if this program is right for you. And if it is, I will offer you the opportunity to enroll in the program right now, at the current pricing, instead of waiting until the public re-launch of this program near the end of this year, which will include a price increase due to the new content about executive function and EF skills that is formally being added to the program. All the current Workshops and Coaching Calls have these EF skills woven into them so current members don't have to wait to benefit from these life-changing skills.  
  • So, two benefits to enrolling now is that 1) you don't have to wait to start learning the EF skills you are missing and can start improving the quality of your life, 2) you can freeze your membership costs at the lowest they will be. This program is definitely the place to be if you want help understanding what's been holding you back and want to learn the skills to break free of your stuckness and start living the life you've only wished for. 

• In the words of a current student of mine:
  • "Tuesday was World Mental Health Day and October is Learning Disabilities, Dyslexia and ADHD Awareness Month. Couldn't help but take a moment to reflect back to a year ago at this time, when I first started this journey. Crazy to me to review what I had written in the intro I posted here – never could I have imagined what the following months would bring… Truly grateful for the opportunity to finally learn and understand the reasons behind the challenges I've experienced throughout my life. Prior to last year, I never would have thought to attribute these challenges to ADHD/EFD. I feel like I'm finally coming into consciousness and into my own with all that we've been learning here."
• In my own words:
  • "It's a safe space to face yourself and your current challenges and limitations, and tell the truth about what you really want to be doing in your life. That way, I can help you to learn the skills you are missing so you can do whatever it is that makes your heart sing and become the person who can have that life."

• Fourth, there's one more special thing I want to share with you and that's connected with it being ADHD Awareness Month. I'm excited that this year's International Conference on ADHD is being co-hosted by ADDA and CHADD, for the first time in history. Instead of having to decide between attending the ADDA or CHADD conference, that decision has been removed. You can attend this one conference and benefit from what both organizations have been providing to the ADHD communities for years. So, if you are in the Atlanta GA area or able to get there, the conference is going to be held from November 9-12, and will bring together some of the top clinicians, educators and resources all in one place for you.

Developing your Executive Function Skills and shifting your limiting beliefs is the fastest and most effective way to overcome ADHD limitations, find focus, gain confidence, and newfound freedom in your life!

Let's put an end to the worldwide needless suffering together! We can do this!  

Hey ADDers! So glad you could join me for today's podcast episode. In the last episode, I talked about how we are a "feeling driven people" and if we don't feel like it, we don't do it; plain and simple. Some might interpret this as immature and say that you have to do things you don't feel like doing when you are a mature adult. I don't disagree. However, I have a little different take on this. Of course, we have to do things that we don't feel like doing (meaning would rather not do; that's part of maturity). However, the part of this that's important to distinguish is to "feel like it." There is a feeling that goes with what we do. I might get the yard work done because I feel like doing it. So, what is the "FEELING" that I experience that allows me to get it done? It depends.

There are many times in your life that you "feel like" or "don't feel like" doing something. And for most of you, I think the way you interpret that thought or experience is different than what I am talking about.

In this episode, I talk about the importance of being able to shift your state as needed, rather than having to wait it out, and the value of building a "feeling library" to borrow from when you need to "feel like it."

Developing your Executive Function Skills and shifting your limiting beliefs is the fastest and most effective way to overcome ADHD limitations, find focus, gain confidence, and newfound freedom in your life!

My mission is to put an end to the worldwide needless suffering of adults with ADHD and those with under-developed Executive Function Skills - whether from ADHD, chronic depression or anxiety, trauma, addictions, or chronic illnesses.  And, you don't need a formal diagnosis to know you need help developing these executive function skills in order to greatly reduce your suffering.
