This is the podcast for adults who have ADHD and our loved ones! Your hosts, Alyssa Shaw and Samantha Cooper, are real-life friends who work as professional ADHD coaches and have ADHD themselves; they basically live, sleep, eat, and breathe the many manifestations of ADHD! This dynamic duo is passionate about supporting others to learn how to work with their neurodiverse brain wiring rather than against it. Join them for honest, informed, and (at times) humorous conversations about how you can improve your quality of life when you have ADHD.
If you struggle to be on time or stick to a schedule (especially one that you created for yourself), get easily sidetracked by interruptions, and/or often don't keep your promises to yourself, then you are not alone… and this episode was made for you! Aly and Sam discuss how and why we experience these challenges when making transitions, and what we can do about it.
In this episode, real-life friends Aly and Sam explore the interactive relationship between ADHD and Anxiety (such as GAD and OCD) from the perspective of their own personal lived experiences and individual professional practices as ADHD coaches. They touch upon the impact of misdiagnosis and late diagnosis, ways to address intrusive thoughts and disrupt rumination, effective treatment and self-care practices, the importance of connection, and other strategies to better manage both ADHD and Anxiety to improve one's quality of life during the age of COVID-19.
In this episode, real-life friends and ADHD Coaches Alyssa Shaw and Samantha Cooper discuss why it is essential for people who have ADHD brains to be “lazy”, what happens when we aren't lazy, and how you can develop an intentional laziness practice.
