The Quiet ADHD Podcast

We all have things in our lives that take up our precious time and feel like a waste of our time, even though it’s essential we do them. Knowing we have to do them isn’t enough to stop feelings of irritation, resentment, anger even. In this episode I share how you can reclaim this time so you can turn the frustration into fun.

The world tells us in many ways that we’re not enough just as we are so it’s no wonder we can find it hard to believe that we actually are. In this episode I share a personal tool I use daily to help teach myself to accept that I am, in fact, enough which you can use too.

There is an enormous amount of suffering in the world right now. There are many of us who are feeling overwhelmed by the enormity of the awfulness and feeling utterly helpless in the face of it. That’s combined with feeling thankful and guilt-ridden for our safety and comfort and aware of the incredibly privileged position we’re in by luck of birth. In this episode I share ideas on how you can deal with the anxiety, upset and fear you may be feeling.

Writing a book to be traditionally published challenged me in ways that I didn’t fully expect, a big one being my perfectionism (which is not just about wanting perfection). In this episode I share the different, often sneaky ways that perfectionism shows up, I share how writing brought up those fears and how I dealt with them while in the thick of the process.

There’s good reason why you find it hard to say no, why you automatically put everyone else’s needs ahead of your own, why you feel it’s lazy to take a break and rest, why you feel like you should always be doing something, why you hate the thought of getting something wrong or disappointing somebody, why you feel like you’re not quite enough and too much at the same time, and it’s not your fault. There are other forces at play here…

Knowing there are less than three months of the year left can give a sense of urgency, a pressure to get things done or a feeling of failure for not doing all that you planned to. Instead of being panicked or frozen by the clock ticking there are other ways to approach the remainder of the year and how you want to feel, as well as what you want to do.
