How to Talk to Yourself in a Way That Is Caring

Episode 141 with Taylor Elyse Morrison.

“My ADHD is more internal, so I would often worry I was looking for excuses or tricking myself into thinking I had ADHD.”

Taylor is a founder, facilitator, coach, and serial entrepreneur making well-being and personal development more accessible. Through her company Inner Workout and her book of the same name, Taylor supports people’s journey to know, care for, and become their full selves. 

Recently named one of Fortune’s 10 Innovators Shaping the Future of Health, Taylor is tired of aspirational 'wellness as usual.' Instead, she builds businesses, content, and experiences that make well-being and personal development more accessible. 

Taylor and I talk about why exactly neurodivergent brains struggle with self-care and so often end up in burnout mode. We talk about how self-concept and self-talk lead to emotional dysregulation, how to listen to our bodies and what they’re actually telling us, and the importance of community and support when it comes to self-care (and what that looks like when you have ADHD).
