S3 E5 - Untangling ADHD...Pilates, Creativity and the Importance of Finding your WHY with James Shaw
In this new episode, I speak to the wonderful human that is James Shaw - pilates instructor and educator. James works at some amazing studios and gyms across London and is a master of all things pilates. As many of you know I LOVE pilates and I was excited to bring this topic on to the podcast. After years of teaching yoga and pilates, I can now look back and see where ADHD showed up for me as both a struggle and a strength.
In this chat, James and I discuss the importance of embodying movement and our need to continually seek knowledge to learn more about our amazing bodies and brains.
James believes his ADHD is what gives him his edge and enables him to be creative and innovative in his teaching methods. Using self-awareness and mindset shifts, James is thriving in his work and reframing his ADHD as a POSITIVE, finding mental clarity through teaching, which allows him to be fully present and engaged (a hard one for us ADHDers!).
During our conversation, we dive into the significance of personal milestones such as sobriety and the deep impact it has on productivity and well-being. We also touch on setting boundaries, time management, the importance of balance and the dreaded imposter syndrome!
This chat left my heart so full because James is a kind, creative and truly authentic person. For the pilates lovers out there you will love the deep dive into James’s world and if you are struggling right now, this conversation will empower you when it comes to living with your ADHD.
So what are you waiting for? Let's get untangled and show the world what we are made of.

Have you ever felt the need to change who you are in order to fit in?

And I’ve spent so many years hectically running around this world trying to be everything and everyone else but my true myself
Party girl, house wife, rebel, addict, yogi…. To name a few
Hoping that eventually, something would work and something would fix me and make me normal…
None of it ever did.
But two things in my life that have allowed me to live a more meaningful and authentic life and that is Yoga & My ADHD Diagnosis, which is why I am on a Mission to support as many individuals with ADHD to turn their struggle into strength with ADHD through Movement & ADHD Coaching.
