  • Life Changing Tips

    At 37 years old, my therapist recently suggested he thinks I might have ADHD. I have an evaluation scheduled for September, but I thought I’d get ahead and start researching ADHD resources before getting a diagnosis. This way, I can begin implementing tools I’ve learned right away. This podcast is easily my favorite of all the ADHD resources I have found. The episodes are short, have actionable tips (despite my immense struggle with initiating new things), and William has such a calm and friendl... more

  • Finally - reality…..

    There are so many “self help” and “understanding ADHD” resources but ADHD is incredibly personal. One size only fits one person.

    These bite sized pieces of gold are not designed to be the be all and end all and “fix” your ADHD. These are real world bites that help with all sorts of things. Stuff to put in your tool box. You may not remember them all but it is so easy to come back to and relisten.

    Thank you

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Getting Focused with Shane Thrapp (Rebroadcast)
Q: Can we first start with like a definition of body doubling?
Body doubling is working with another person, virtually or in person, to provide accountability; even when both people are working on different tasks, the presence and check-ins help reduce distractions and increase follow-through.
The Physics of Easy Discipline with Jia Jiang
Q: How did rejection therapy change your approach to entrepreneurship and ADHD?
Rejection therapy reframed failure as a learning process, built momentum through ongoing experimentation, and taught me to focus on the process and the learning rather than just the outcome.
The Physics of Easy Discipline with Jia Jiang
Q: Could you tell me a little bit more about your transition from rejection to Easy Discipline?
I turned my experiences with rejection into a framework that blends enjoyment, artistry, systems, and self to create sustainable discipline, moving away from willpower and toward tasks that feel like creative expression.
You Don't Need to Earn Your Rest with Alyece Smith (Rebroadcast)
Q: What inspired you to start Socially Awesome and focus on neurodivergent entrepreneurs?
Alyece describes leaving a traditional job, recognizing a gap in support for neurodivergent business owners, and using her experiences to build systems that work with their brains, not against them.
Hacking the Limbic System's Spending Habits with Christine Lane
Q: What are some of the most helpful strategies for working with ADHD in money management?
Christine discusses prioritizing external systems over relying on willpower, using a Four-Bucket Banking System to separate money for bills, variable expenses, periodic costs, and emergencies, and implementing friction in spending (such as cash-like tools or limiting easy spending options). She emphasizes forecasting, visualization, and simplifying choices to reduce cognitive load, along with coaching support to tailor these systems to individual brains.
