Episode 13: ADHD & Money Management (Part 1)

Welcome to The ADHD Lounge podcast! Whether you're someone with ADHD or a learning disability, or just curious to learn more, come hang out with us in the Lounge! We’re your hosts, Katy Weber & Alex Gilbert.

Welcome to Episode 13. In this episode, we talk to Eryn Schultz, the founder of Her Personal Finance. When Erin graduated from Harvard Business School in 2015, she realized that she and her classmates were better equipped to manage a corporate balance sheet than their personal finances. Through her online classes, she has helped hundreds of students decide how to balance paying off student loans with saving for retirement, figure out how much cash to keep on hand, and finally feel confident investing outside of a 401K. 

We talk about the most helpful financial habits for adults with ADHD and practical strategies to help make better financial choices. We also discuss some of the best options for investment, and we ask Eryn why she doesn’t like the term “budget.”

Welcome to The ADHD Lounge podcast! Whether you're someone with ADHD or a learning disability, or just curious to learn more, come hang out with us in the Lounge! We’re your hosts, Katy Weber & Alex Gilbert.

Welcome to Episode 12. In this episode, Alex & Katy talk about our own experiences with success amnesia and the difficulty many of us with ADHD have with recognizing and celebrating our personal achievements. We explore the tendency to downplay accomplishments and constantly focus on the next task, as well as the challenge of being present and appreciating the learning process.

We also discuss the importance of reframing success and finding meaningful ways to celebrate milestones. And we share what approaches we use with ourselves and with our coaching clients to help redefine success and achievement from a neurodivergent lens.

Welcome to The ADHD Lounge podcast! Whether you're someone with ADHD or a learning disability, or just curious to learn more, come hang out with us in the Lounge! We’re your hosts, Katy Weber & Alex Gilbert.

He shares how individuals with ADHD often forget their past successes, leading to feelings of self-doubt and difficulty taking on new challenges.

Jesse also talks about the importance of positive feedback and the impact it can have on motivation. He introduces the concept of a smile file, a place to store positive experiences and feedback, and how it can combat success amnesia. Jesse provides insights on managing overwhelm and prioritizing tasks, as well as strategies for managing priorities, staying focused, and breaking down tasks.
