Candi Underwood is a Brighton-based ADHD vocal coach, singer, screamer and choir leader. She is the Founder and Director of City of Stars, an intermediate musical theatre choir across Brighton, Hove & Worthing. 

Candi shares the cadence of her days as an ADHD business owner: the intense swings between structure and chaos. She shares how she navigates the fierce swirl of running multiple businesses and describes the careful preparation she undertakes to do her job every day, as someone who pours energy into supporting others and lifting them up. She talks about the sweetness in her day - her dog Prince, her night-time reading routine, the feeling of making on impact on someone else's day. She  ponders whether having a job in music, the thing she loves most, is a beautiful thing or a terrible thing. This episode is, at times, very loud and, at other times, very quiet. It is a patchwork of Candi's vibrant world: screaming, singing, community, chihuahuas, seated gigs, big breakthroughs and Below Deck.

Alice Reeves is a Worthing-based OCD/ADHD business coach and consultant and the Co-Founder & Director of Joyfully Different, an organisation that supports neurodivergent business owners and coaches organisations to become more neuro-inclusive.

Alice explains the way her OCD and ADHD interact and how her growing understanding of how her brain works informs the baggy yet supportive way she shapes her days. Alice denounces exhausting ideas about how a work day should look and instead describes the experimental approach that works for her brain: acknowledging the concertina of micro-battles faced in the mornings by ADHD brains, minimising the strain of transitions throughout the day, and allowing herself to really feel the bigness of her emotions, rather than pressing on and pretending they’re not important.

Alice celebrates the sweetness of her friendships, the unrelenting comfort of Buffy The Vampire Slayer and admits she longs for more green and expansive beauty in her days. Alice's commitment to understanding herself and recognising what she needs feels like an invitation, or permission even, to imagine a different kind of days for ourselves.

Erin Enfys is a non‑binary, disabled AuDHD freelance creative from Brighton & Hove. Erin shares the rhythm of their days: easeful mornings where they give their body what it needs, their “gathering yarn” ritual for organising thoughts and tasks, and their ongoing quest for balance between ambition and wellbeing. This episode weaves together reflections on sleep, chronic pain, self‑sufficiency, and how to feel safe with big, intense emotions, and celebrates the sweetness of building forts and playing Stardew Valley.
