LATE BLOOMERS

THE LAZY LIE: Is it laziness or ADHD? How to spot the difference


Listen Later

Is laziness real, or is it one of the biggest lies told about ADHD? In this episode of LATE BLOOMERS, Rich and Rox tackle the “lazy lie” head-on. They explore why being called lazy never motivates anyone, and why shame only fuels procrastination, anxiety, and self-doubt instead of getting things done.

From homework left to the last minute, uni rooms infested with flies, and dodged coffee duties, they swap hilarious and raw stories that show how “lazy” is almost never the truth. With banter, and brutal honesty, they pull apart the difference between actual laziness (vibing on your phone while someone else makes the coffee) and executive dysfunction: the invisible ADHD struggle that looks like laziness but feels like quicksand.

If you’ve ever called yourself lazy, or been crushed under the weight of that label, this episode is for you.
