In this episode, Yardley is joined by Leia Morshedi, an ADHD & Executive Function Coach, for a conversation about the connection between Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder, workplace insecurity, productivity, and self-trust.
Drawing from her lived experience with ADHD, research, and client coaching, Leia challenges some of the assumptions that can cause neurodivergent professionals to question their abilities. What if work challenges didn’t have to do with flaws but actually a brain that works differently?
How past rejection and difficult workplace experiences can shape the way you see yourself at workWhy ADHD may not be the time-management or productivity problem you think it is—and how a new perspective can support your healing journey from workplace insecurityProductivity tools and strategies that can help you work with your brain, build consistency, and feel good about what you accomplishHow to avoid relying on last-minute panic and dopamine to get things doneWhy recognizing small wins can help rebuild self-trust and confidenceHow to quiet the inner critic and recover from workplace mistakes without spiraling into shameHow to look back on years of workplace struggles with greater compassion—especially if you’re discovering your ADHD later in lifeHow to rethink evaluating your performance versus measuring yourself against the wrong standardLeia brings a psychology-, lived-experience-, and coaching-based perspective to the conversation, complementing the faith-based perspective we normally explore on Overcome Rejection at Work.
If you’ve spent years wondering, “Why is work so much harder for me than it seems to be for everyone else?” this conversation may help you see yourself—and your potential—differently.
You may not need to become a different kind of worker. You may need to discover what helps your brain thrive.
