S5 E8 – Untangling ADHD & Regret: When Rage Takes Over with 8x World Champion Liam Harrison
Ever been so emotionally dysregulated you’ve said something you didn’t mean — or worse, made an impulsive decision you instantly regretted?
If you’ve got ADHD, then of course you have. We know the drill.
But imagine that decision being broadcast live on TV… to the world.
Well, that’s exactly what happened to today’s guest.
Back by popular demand (and because I could chat to him for hours) — it’s round two with:
- 8x Muay Thai World Champion
- One of the most sought-after coaches on the planet
- And the only man I know who can swallow 30 supplements in one mouthful without blinking
The legend himself — Liam Harrison — joins me for another raw and real chat about ADHD, setbacks and staying in the ring, both literally and metaphorically.
We talk about the split-second decision to retire after a loss… and the crash that followed.
Was it impulsivity? RSD? A fight-or-flight reaction wrapped in adrenaline? Probably all of the above. But what I love most is Liam’s honesty — the regret, the reflection, and the resilience to say: “Nah, I’m not done yet.”
We untangled:
- How overtraining and burnout can sneak in under the mask of hyperfocus
- Why routine is everything for ADHDers — and how losing it can unravel us fast
- The chaos that can follow injury or retirement when movement has been your main dopamine fix
- What schools still get wrong about ADHD — and why celebrating talent outside the box is so crucial
- The importance of spotting emotional dysregulation in young athletes
This episode is more than just a conversation about ADHD and sport.
It’s about extreme behaviour.
It’s about what happens when your whole identity is wrapped up in one thing… and that thing suddenly disappears.
It’s about resilience, rage, and rewiring.
And it’s about how just one person who gets it — a coach, a teacher, a partner — can change the entire direction of your life.
Liam’s story isn’t just about fighting in the ring. It’s about fighting to stay grounded, regulated, and connected — even when the ADHD brain wants to burn it all down.

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.
