S5 E4 - Untangling ADHD with Alex Partridge: The Truth Behind the Labels
Ever felt like your brain just can’t stop – or won’t stop?
Ideas, overthinking, random thoughts and that constant inner monologue that never shuts up – some might call it the ADHD chatter.
If you know, you know.
And let’s be honest, it can leave you wondering if there’s something wrong with you.
Well today's guest will tell you that you are not alone. And you are definitely not broken.
In this episode, I sit down with Alex Partridge – founder of Unilad and host of the ADHD Chatter Podcast – for an honest conversation about what it’s really like living with ADHD. No pretending. Just the chaos, the truth and what it actually feels like.
Alex doesn’t just talk the talk. From building viral empires to wrestling with the reality of an ADHD diagnosis later in life, he’s lived it. And now, he’s using his voice to shift the way we think about neurodiversity – one real conversation at a time.
Here’s what we Untangle in this episode:
🧠 Object permanence – what it is, and how it messes with your day-to-day (and how to work with it)
🔥 The so-called ‘traits’ of ADHD – like impulsivity and hyperfocus – and why they’re not weaknesses
💬 Ditching the labels and learning to rewrite your story
💪 Finding your values, dropping the act, and choosing a life that feels right for you
How undiagnosed ADHD showed up for him during a very public and extremely stressful legal battle worth millions – and why winning it didn’t bring the happiness he thought it would.
🌍 Why the world isn’t built for different thinkers – and why that needs to change
This one’s for anyone who’s ever felt misunderstood, mislabelled or like they don’t quite fit the mould.
Alex’s story is full of truth, courage, and VERY relatable!

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.
