S5 E18 - Untangling ADHD, Discipline & Redefining Masculinity with Gareth Timmins
Left school with one GCSE.
Felt stupid for most of his life.
Nearly ended up in jail.
Now he’s a Royal Marine Commando, psychologist, author and doing a PhD on decision-making and belief systems.
This episode with Gareth Timmins isn’t about ticking boxes or fitting in.
It’s about what happens when you stop proving your worth to the world — and start building a life that actually fits you.
We Untangle...
- ADHD without a diagnosis and what it felt like.
- School, shame, and feeling like you were already failing before you even began
- Masculinity, masking, and the pressure to be “the strong one”
- The dark side of discipline — and what real self-trust looks like.
- Rejection, RSD, and why feeling undervalued can flip your whole life.
- Life after sport — chasing highs, losing identity, and starting again.
Why breaking down doesn’t mean you’re broken.
If you’ve ever walked away from something and called it failure this one’s for you.
“I’m not fragile. I’m not a failure. I just needed the right conditions to grow.”

ADHD COACHING
IT’S TIME TO TURN YOUR ADHD STRUGGLES INTO STRENGTHS AND SHOW UP IN THE WAY YOU WERE ALWAYS MEANT TO!
Have you ever felt the need to change who you are in order to fit in?
me too!
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.
