Spoon Theory, But Make It Abundant: ADHD Energy Mindset


Listen Later

ADHD energy management, abundance mindset, spoon theory reframe, self-compassion, practical strategies, and thriving with ADHD.

In this episode, we dive into what it means to approach our energy with an abundance mindset. 💫 Instead of living in constant fear of “running out of spoons,” we explore how reframing our relationship with energy can bring us more ease, self-trust, and joy. We share personal stories about burnout, guilt, and overcommitment—and how we’re learning to see energy as something we can nurture and grow, not just spend.

We also unpack how to work with our ADHD brains, rather than against them, by noticing the rhythms of our energy and finding practical ways to honor our limits without feeling defeated. If you’ve ever felt like your energy defines your worth, this conversation is your invitation to see yourself with more compassion and hope. 🌞

✨ Key Discussion Points:

  • Spoon Theory, Reframed: We talk about why traditional spoon theory can feel limiting—and how to shift toward a mindset of abundance without ignoring our real needs.

  • Noticing Energy Rhythms: How tracking your natural highs and lows can lead to a more balanced and guilt-free life.

  • ADHD & Burnout Patterns: We share personal experiences of burnout and the patterns we’ve spotted in how ADHD brains push themselves too far.

  • Practical Energy Boosters: Small, actionable steps we’re using to gently increase our energy reserves over time.

  • Self-Compassion as a Tool: The emotional weight of fatigue is real. We discuss why self-kindness isn’t just “nice to have”—it’s essential.

Whether you’re feeling completely drained or just curious about how to better care for your energy, this episode will help you rethink what’s possible and feel more at home in your own body and brain. 💛
