Taking Control: The ADHD Podcast

Thank you for supporting The ADHD Podcast on Patreon! — https://patreon.com/theadhdpodcast Thanks to a listener email inspired by a recent book recommendation on Nikki’s newsletter, we’re revisiting a book that has been inspirational in our search for joy when confronted with hopelessness. We’re talking about Sheryl Sandberg’s book, Option B: Facing Adversity, Building Resilience, and Finding Joy and using Sandberg’s journey through grief at the loss of her husband as a jumping off point for a conversation around finding hope, peace, and grace.

Thank you for supporting The ADHD Podcast on Patreon! — https://patreon.com/theadhdpodcast We’re back after our July break and talking all about transitions today. Wading through change can be tough on anyone, but when you’re living with ADHD, integrating new behaviors can be much more difficult. And while we might normally think of “transitions” as the big seasonal changes that come at us a few times a year, don’t forget the smaller “state changes” we adjust to daily; waking up in the morning and adjusting to the day, or going to bed at night to ensure healthy sleep are just as challenging for some ADHD brains. What do you do to make it through your daily, weekly, and even less frequent transitions?

Thank you for supporting The ADHD Podcast on Patreon! — https://patreon.com/theadhdpodcast Zdravko Cvijetic — “Z” to his friends — wrote the most viral post in the history of the platform medium.com when he posted 13 Things You Should Give Up If You Want To Be Successful. And it went viral for good reason. In his short post, he managed to condense a series of points that lead to success and contentment, a feat, to be sure. This week on the show, we’re talking briefly about just two of the 13 things, two that relate not just to overall well-being, but to our relationship with ADHD and the things we do to reduce stress and anxiety we carry through our limiting beliefs.

Thank you for supporting The ADHD Podcast on Patreon! — https://patreon.com/theadhdpodcast We’re diving head-first into our problems this week thanks to some inspiration from the Godfather of Help himself, Tony Robbins. Our journey is ultimately one of celebrating the lessons we learn from our challenges and adversity in our lives, collecting those experiences, and using them to make us stronger. If you've ever found yourself wandering through your own pain a bit too listlessly, maybe it’s time to sit up, reframe, and face the world anew.
