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 hyperfocusWhy routine is everything for ADHDers — and how losing it can unravel us fastThe chaos that can follow injury or retirement when movement has been your main dopamine fixWhat schools still get wrong about ADHD — and why celebrating talent outside the box is so crucialThe importance of spotting emotional dysregulation in young athletesThis 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.Want to learn more from Liam?

Some of us don't stumble across ready-made communities.Some of us have to build them - and today's guest knows a thing or two about that.Today I am joined by the one and only Alexis Lee – Founder of Style Me Sunday, author of 'Feeling Myself', community leader (Black Enough, Healing Myself), psychotherapist in training and apparently, the only person who could get me talking about sex without wanting to crawl under the table. We dive into it all — the stuff nobody taught us growing up. From convent school guilt, to figuring out what love really means later in life, to how shutting down the sex chat only fuels more shame. We also get into how ADHD messes with body image, self-esteem, intimacy... and basically, how it all ties back to connection and community.From setting up a spontaneous fishing community (yep, you read that right) to navigating the chaos of daily life, Alexis shares her honest take on what it actually means to live authentically.

ADHD is an executive functioning impairment. The major executive function is self-regulation. There are two things you need to regulate: one is your attention, and the other is your emotions. Whether you realize it or not, when your attention is dysregulated, so are your emotions.  In this episode of Attention Talk Radio, ADHD and attention coach Jeff Copper (https://www.digcoaching.com) talks to mindfulness ADHD coach Dana Crews (https://secondarrowadhdcoaching.com) about the nature of emotional self-regulation and what's involved in regulating emotions. Jeff and Dana confront the big challenges associated with emotional regulation, identify what can be done, and help you emotionally deal with the fact that there's no easy way getting around it—this is a challenge. But with the right type of support, it can be done.  Attention Talk Radio is the leading site for self-help Internet radio shows focusing on attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and attention deficit disorder, including managing symptoms of ADHD in adults with ADD or adults who have children with ADHD.

Over the last few weeks, it has been increasingly difficult for me to keep myself focused on what I want to be focused on. I don't think I have to particularly speak to the reasons; we're all handling the state of the world in our own ways - in many ways, it has a similar feel to the beginning of the pandemic, where I felt like I needed to pay extra attention to the news because so many people around me were ignoring the alarm bells. Trying to deal with all of this while also having to grapple with the cognitive dissonance of having to go on with real life while all of this is also going on at the same time can be incredibly difficult. It feels like we should be able to press pause on all the other things going on in our life.  But regardless of how we feel, time marches on. In today's episode, we're tackling how to navigate life when focus feels impossible, why we turn to numbing when we're overwhelmed, and most importantly, how we can break out of that cycle in a way that actually supports us.

Use code HACKINGYOURADHD for 30% of your first month! https://www.shimmer.care/ This Episode's Top Tips More than anything, I want to remind everyone to give themselves grace when they're going through something. We're not always going to get it right, but being hard on ourselves is never the right answer. Throughout your day, take a moment to check in with how you're feeling. We tend to ignore our feelings until they become something we have to deal with. Forget the "Go big or go home" mentality. Tiny changes—like five minutes of mindful breathing or a short walk—are more effective than drastic, unrealistic plans. When everything feels overwhelming, find support. Whether it's a friend, an online group, or a therapist, you don't have to handle everything alone.

The most profound aspect of this month's focus on routines has been the implementation of a morning and an evening routine. How did you do? Have you been following along?

In this coaching call, I had the pleasure of talking with Sarah, a creative mom who struggles with consistency due to her ADHD and the challenges of everyday life. We delved into what consistency looks like for her and how she can create touchpoints in her day that help her feel capable and confident. We identified practical steps she can take, starting with simple hygiene routines and establishing a capsule wardrobe to make getting ready easier. This conversation was all about helping Sarah find flexibility within her routines and redefining what it means to be consistent in her unique life circumstances.

In this episode of ADHD reWired, I'm pulling back the curtain on two intertwined journeys: my own path toward sustainability and the incredible growth story of Jessica, an alumna of our ADHD Coaching and Accountability Groups. As I've navigated my own challenges with burnout and the pressures of juggling too much, I've made a commitment this year to focus on what matters most. My word for the year—sustainability—has reshaped how I approach my work, my energy, and even this podcast. Jessica's story adds another layer of depth to this episode. After feeling stuck, overwhelmed, and disconnected while pursuing her PhD, Jessica joined our fall coaching group. Through her deeply personal and reflective audio journal, she shares how the program helped her build sustainable systems, reconnect with her goals, and find the motivation to tackle her work and her life with renewed energy. From discovering the power of accountability teams to replacing old habits with more supportive ones, Jessica's transformation offers hope and inspiration for anyone seeking to live more intentionally with ADHD. This season, we've made changes to our coaching program to better support ADHDers like you. Now 8 weeks instead of 10, the program is more focused and accessible. We've also introduced on-demand access to our yearly planning sessions, allowing you to go at your own pace. These adjustments reflect the principle that less is truly more when it comes to creating meaningful and lasting growth. The final registration events for our Winter Coaching and Accountability Groups are Wednesday and Thursday of this week, so now is the time to take the next step. If you're ready to stop juggling fireballs and start building a more sustainable, ADHD-friendly life, visit to pre-register today. Tune in to hear Jessica's story, learn more about what makes our coaching groups so transformative, and find inspiration to start your own growth journey. Together, let's challenge internalized ableism and reimagine what it means to thrive with ADHD.
