In this podcast, we explore the negative impact of rigid expectations and how to manage them for a more positive mindset. We go over the difference between expectations, goals, desires, and beliefs, and how expectations can lead to disappointment and suffering. By examining and managing our expectations, we can free ourselves from the burden of societal and self-imposed expectations and lead a happier life.

Why your expectations are sucking the joy out of your life (and what to do about it)

It’s the ADHD-Friendly Show, where we celebrate smart, creative women with ADHD. We focus on the positive aspects of our neurodiversity and share tips, hacks and life advice on playing to your own unique strengths at work and life. 

There’s no denying that living with ADHD can be challenging (especially around menopause, holy smokes), but focusing on the good is the best way to create energy, focus and follow through, so that’s what we do here.
