Hey everyone! Welcome or welcome back to Authentically ADHD with me, Carmen! How is it going? Isnt it insane that its march already? This time of year, is a particularly hard time for us. We slip into burnout easier, we procrastinate more, as we crave the summer sun and regulated sleep because winter is just too long. I may be talking from personal experience but if you relate to this idea, todays episode is definitely for you.Today, we're diving into one of the most double-edged traits of the ADHD brain: hyperfocus. If you've ever found yourself completely locked into a task for hours, forgetting to eat, sleep, or even go to the bathroom—yeah, you've been in hyperfocus mode. But here's the catch: what goes up must come down, and that's where burnout sneaks in.Today's episode is all about understanding how to harness hyperfocus without burning out. We'll break down:✅ What hyperfocus actually is✅ How to use it to your advantage✅ The warning signs of burnout✅ And seven science-backed strategies to create balance so you can stay productive without crashing!Are you ready? Lets get started !Segment 1: What is Hyperfocus?Hyperfocus is one of ADHD's most fascinating traits. It's when we become completely absorbed in an activity—sometimes to the point where hours fly by without noticing. It's not just being “focused”; it's more like entering a deep trance of concentration.Research Insight: Studies suggest that ADHD brains struggle with self-directed attention, meaning we have trouble regulating what we focus on. But when something stimulates dopamine, like a passion project or a high-interest task, we get locked in (Hupfeld et al., 2019).Common Hyperfocus Triggers:✔️ Creative work (art, writing, music)✔️ Video games or coding✔️ Researching a new interest✔️ Deadlines that create a sense of urgency✔️ Problem-solving challengesHyperfocus can be a gift—but only if we control it, not the other way around. So, how do we harness it?Segment 2: How to Harness Hyperfocus (Instead of Letting It Wreck You)Hyperfocus is powerful, but when left unchecked, it can lead to skipped meals, sleep deprivation, and neglecting responsibilities. Here's how you can make it work for you:1️⃣ Set Time Limits with External Cues – Use alarms, timers, or a buddy system to remind yourself to take breaks.2️⃣ Choose Your Hyperfocus Wisely – Prioritize projects that align with your goals rather than just whatever feels exciting in the moment.3️⃣ Use It for Deep Work – Schedule hyperfocus sessions when you need to tackle big tasks, like writing, brainstorming, or studying.4️⃣ Pair it with Body Needs – Stack hyperfocus with activities like drinking water, stretching, or taking snack breaks.But even with good management, hyperfocus can still lead to burnout if we're not careful. Let's talk about how to recognize burnout before it takes over.
Tesse Akpeki says " When I prioritise finding joy in what I do, success follows naturally. Creating balance, addressing a tendency towards workaholism, seeking meaning and purpose as I aim for excellence are important features as I flesh out my pathway to wellbeing. A few years ago I came to the conclusion that I wish to enjoy what I do. Work hard, yes of course, but not at the expense of burning myself out. Exploration, discovery, learning and cooperation feature highly through my lens of what matters. I am ecstatic when the work I do makes a difference to my clients and the organisations I serve."

Luba found herself feeling isolated as she was running a daycare from home with her own two young children and reached a tipping point in her mental health. On one particularly tough day, she put her Masters in Mathematics to work by locking herself in a room with some art supplies and creating her first Mandala. Drawing the mandala that day allowed her brain fog to clear and she realized it was a meditation tool that helped her feel centered and more like herself. For Luba, a Mandala represents balance and growth. Expanding on this, she combined her art exploration with a gratitude practice, developing gratitude art journals. “Gratitude is your fertilizer, that helps what you appreciate to grow.” Luba encourages people to lean into a regular gratitude practice, offering key suggestions for you to be successful: Don't overthink it. You don't need a lot of time Take little steps Pay attention to what comes up for you Be mindful and creative with this! She shares the alarming statistic that over 90% of younger children feel they are creative and by the time we hit high school it's closer to 3%! You ARE creative. Get outside of the journal, color outside the lines. feel free to express gratitude any way you like, give praise, dance, do your make-up how you like, doodle, dig in the dirt, bake. When you are intentional you realize it matters WHY you're doing a gratitude practice, not HOW. “When you allow yourself to be creative, you allow yourself to hear your own voice.”Tapping into your creativity will help you identify messages that are dropping in and repeating. The kind, supportive, loving ones? Those are the ones meant for you. https://kalinaartstudio.com/ https://www.facebook.com/KalinaArtStudioPapillion

Wanting more and striving for more is exciting and it gives us something to work toward and look forward to. But you want to be careful you're not constantly only living for the future. That is not living in the present - that is not showing gratitude for where you are right now, which can be a big block toward our manifestations materialising. This is also when life speeds by, we miss moments, we miss the signs and coincidences the universe might be trying to send us.This episode is an inspiring one, where I chat about the expectation and perception that you may hold around the small things in life, which have a direct flow on effect to the bigger things in life - your goals, manifestations, relationships, health etc.I read an interesting article which you can find here by Jessica Rapana on psychologist and author Cass Dunn's studies, it's all about the ‘hedonic treadmill.' This adaptation describes how us humans are constantly chasing the next thing, which leaves us with a constant sense of being dissatisfied. I can absolutely relate to this! Why do we feel the need to constantly want more, instead of being content with where we are? I chat about the pros and cons I have found regarding this and why I think a balance between wanting more and being happy where you are is important. I hope you love this episode!

Hello there. Thank you so much. I'm so glad to have you here today. Welcome to this podcast, empowering working moms real talk with Dr. Prianca Naik. I will say that February in the northeast, it's a time for realizing that spring is around the corner and the cold days are going to leave us relatively soon. We're not so much in the dead of winter anymore. And I noticed that it got dark a little bit later yesterday. So I was really pumped about that. The Long Dark days can be really kind of tough. So I'm sure you as a working mom in a demanding career, I'm guessing you've been told that self care is the absolute answer and antidote to burnout and exhaustion. But what most people never realize is that so many moms, in demanding careers are getting mani pedis, they're still exhausted. And you make the time to get the massage and it does not work. And if that happens, what is going to happen to you? What's going to happen your exhaustion? Is self care really the answer? Well, no. It's really being aware of the problem and deciding to do the work, the work to heal. Instead of bandaiding like self care. In my coaching program overcome burnout for good. I teach clients to heal from the inside out using my tools that are really backed by my experience as a medical doctor, a mom, I have my master's degree in neuroscience too. So I've used all of this background and information to develop my processes, helping so many moms to find peace of mind and balance, to ditch exhaustion and burnout once and for all. Now book a call with me PriancaNaikMDcoaching.as.me, the link is in the show notes, to find out if you are someone that I can help too. And today I want to talk about really our relationship to motherhood. And I had this feeling, I had come back from a trip and I just felt thrown back in to the daily grind. And there's what I call the daily grind dread, which so many moms are trapped in where they're just dreading the day. And they get out of bed, their alarm goes off, they're dragging themselves out. And then it's work, work, work, work work, they come home. And then it's more work and more stuff to do in the to do list. And it's just totally exhausting. Now, I never feel the daily grind tread because of my processes. But I will say that when I'm not with my kids, I miss them. And they're top of mind, their safety and their well being. And when I am with them, I feel a lot of pressure to spend a lot of time with them because there's that saying that the days are long, but the years are short. And it's so true. So you know, I realized that the next thing I know, they're going to be off to college and ditching me and even before that, they're not going to want to hang out with me anymore. And this time is so so precious. And as I was ending my carefree time, and it was back to my regular scheduled programming. Meaning my job, my older one is in private school and figuring out when the deadline is for that and tuition and all these things. His camp, I think I pretty much got done, but there are a couple things lingering with that and just those kinds of things. And then also, of course, I love being with my kids. But that's what brings me to the topic of today. Which is how being a mom is the most important job that we will really ever have. And today I'm going to talk about my own personal story, which really is about how I knew I wanted to be a mother at six years old. Now that's not true for everyone. But that is true for me. My sister is actually six years younger than me. And when she was a baby, I loved caring for her. I loved having a baby sister, I would help to make her formula bottles and supplement them with iron. And I remember very vividly helping do this and even changing her diapers when I was that age and I really loved it. And I love babies. And so, from that moment, I knew I wanted to be a mom. Now it doesn't have to be that soon for people. And maybe some people don't know they want to be a mom and they get pregnant and they decide to have a baby not really knowing. But what happens is, after we have those babies we love them fiercely like no other. And that love that a mother has for her child, there is nothing like it. It is so beautiful. I'm probably gonna cry while I deliver this episode. But when I think of the day when I became a mom and I brought my older one home from the hospital and looking at him, and he was just, he was the cutest thing I've ever seen. And many of us we have a tough labor, which I felt like with both my kids, I had not the best laboring situations. And yet, if you asked me would I do it all over again, I totally would. Because I have these two magical creatures that I'm so blessed and privileged to call my children. And just looking at them, it's sometimes surreal for me that they're my kids. And actually, it's funny, they don't really look like 100%, like me or their father, they're just some mix of those DNAs mixed together, and you have them and they look like each other. So definitely, we know that they're our children, but I look at them and it's not like either of them is really a spitting image of me. And when I look at them, and they're doing things, and I just cannot believe that these are my children. And I even had a moment the other day when I was putting my daughter to bed, and we do this really long hug. And I realized, well, I always think, this is it, this is now, these are the times. And I thought to myself, wow, like, there was a time when there was nothing more than I wanted but to be a mother and it's here and it happened and that dream came true. And not everyone gets that dream so easily, right? People go through a lot to have children, and a lot of people have fertility issues. So that's all to say that on one hand, it's so moving to be a mom. Now the reason I'm telling you all of this is, there's that right? And there's the juxtaposition of how it is yes, being a mom is literally some of the most important work we will do, our job as mothers raising these people, these little humans. But at the same time, it is by far the hardest job. And it's the most important. So it makes it even more hard because we know that whatever we're doing, whatever is going on with us, whatever trauma we have, whatever stories we have, whatever triggers we have. That shapes, how we come across to them, what we're saying to them, and how we're rearing them and raising them. And so that's why it is so important for us to work on ourselves. And that's where it's not about self care. It's about having intention, and realizing that as we work on ourselves, as we heal ourselves, we're actually being better mothers. So none of that time that we take for ourselves, none of that work that we do for ourselves, because it's really for our kids too, it's not selfish. It's going to have a positive ripple effect on our children, and our whole family. And so we know that being a mom is the most important job. And yet, we want to be human beings. We want to be people besides being a mother. That identity is so crucial. It's so important for our personal fulfillment. And yes, children fulfill us in so many ways. But we also have our careers that we're managing. And that is important. Now for some of us, a career means personal fulfillment, feeling like you're really impacting the world and making money at the same time. And for some of us, it might just be making money, but either way, those are choices we make. That's something we want to do. We want to be people outside of being moms, we want to have an impact. We want to help make our child's lives better, maybe with the extra money we bring in. Or also I believe that being a professional mom, it sets an awesome example for my children that I have a career that's important to me. And my mother, she worked really hard. She worked many, many hours, and I reaped the benefits of that through she was able to pay for a lot of things. And I had a wonderful life thanks to her. But not just that. She sent an example of hard work that has really stuck with me, and it's wonderful, and I'm really grateful for that. So how do we make peace or face this dichotomy? Because there is a dichotomy. It's like on one hand, you love your kids so fiercely, you love them to death. And on the other hand, you're spread really thin and you're needing some time for yourself or you need to be a person outside of that. So how do we do this? How do we reconcile this? When we tend to feel so much mom guilt, right? Because mom guilt is something that just goes with the job. It's an inherent part of being a mother. Basically, we feel guilty that we're not doing a good enough job, we feel guilty that we're not perfect. We're not spending enough time with our kids, maybe we're doing too much work this and that. And we set ourselves up for dissatisfaction because we are striving for perfection just like we do in our jobs, just like we do in general because we're type A. And as we can really combat this mom guilt, we can practice mindfulness, and try to be in the present moment. We can really reframe, and allow ourselves to let go of perfectionism, embrace our humanity, being human, learning to apologize to our children if we make mistakes, connecting with other professional moms as well. Those are ways that we can ditch mom guilt. Now, the bottom line in all of this, and why I bring up this topic today, why am I talking about my love of being a mother, juxtaposed with the difficulty of being a working mom? The difficulty of trying to do it all and being spread relatively thin? Well, first of all, it exists. And that's why I'm talking about it today. It is there. And then how are we going to create peace in this situation? So this is what we do, we learn to be aware. We're aware that we have this dichotomy. We're aware that we have the guilt. We're aware that we want to be people outside of our children. And as we become aware, we can learn to embrace our humanity. We can learn to heal ourselves. We can get help, we can go to therapy, we can get a coach, we can learn our patterns. And as we do that, as we really practice, healing, mindfulness, all the tools, a lot of the tools that I have on this podcast actually I talk about a lot of tools And then I have way more in depth processes inside my coaching program. But this is how we really heal from the inside out and create this next generation of healing mothers. So that we don't make the mistakes that our mothers made with us. But also, we get to enjoy our lives, we get to find peace and happiness, we get to be working, we get to be moms, and we get to be fulfilled. And we can learn to realize the mom guilt is always gonna be there but make our peace with it. Peace with the fact that motherhood is beautiful, but motherhood is hard. Motherhood is important. Motherhood can be frustrating sometimes. We can feel all of those things, they can all exist at the same time. That's the beauty. It's not black and white. It's not one way or the other. And as we acknowledge this, we get to give ourselves grace. Knowing that we're doing the best we can. We keep learning and healing and growing. And that is how we learn to connect with ourselves. But also have a better connection with our children, with our spouses, with our families, and our friends and build this life filled with love for ourselves, our families and also alignment to really live out what we want for ourselves. And by doing this, we're helping ourselves and helping our loved ones. So if you want to dive deeper into this work, book a call with me PriancaNaikMDcoaching.as.me.

Maintaining balance isn't always easy, our energy levels are usually tipping from one side to the other, here is how to come back to neutral before you completely crash.

“So many women struggle to create balance. Is that you?” If your answer is “yes,” Leslie is here to help. There's no such thing as finding balance–you must create it, and on this solo episode of Why Didn't They Tell Us?, Leslie has provided some confidence cultivator thought starters, a series of questions and time audits to determine what your priorities are and how to best utilize your time and energy so that both your needs and your desires are met. It's so important that you approach each question honestly and without judgment. Society's “shoulds” have no place in this process. Whatever your priorities are–whether it's your social life or creating more of a work-life balance–be honest and honor them. Balance and calm go hand in hand. You can't have one without the other. With Leslie's help you are well on your way to creating more of both in your daily life. Quotes “Chances are, if you're going and going and giving and giving, there's very little left for you when it's all said and done. And let's be honest, it never feels done, because it all starts over the next day.” (3:02 | Leslie) “Balance is not something you seek; it is something you create. With intention. With commitment and consistency.” (6:34 | Leslie) “Don't judge; just notice. Remember I said you can't beat yourself up to more self-confidence. The same applies here. You cannot beat yourself up to create more balance. Notice with love and compassion, not judgment.” (11:14 | Leslie) “Why didn't they tell us we can't wait for balance and calm, we must create it.” (19:37 | Leslie) “By letting go of the external ‘shoulds' and paying attention to our internal priorities, our internal desires, by making the time for them and savoring it when we do, we will create the calm and balance we so desire. I hope you do. I know you can. I'm cheering you on for all of it.” (19:46 | Leslie) Connect With Leslie: Six Steps to Help Your Teen Cultivate Confidence: https://www.confidencecoachforgirls.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/the_coach_chronicles/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/CoachChronicles/ Podcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm

Do you want to level up leadership in your agency and empower your team? Providing resources and training to your leadership team is important in helping build their confidence and creating a trickle-down effect to the rest of the team. Today's guest believes it all starts with the hiring process and creating an agency that is desirable to work for. He is on the show sharing how he and his agency business partner maintain a balanced relationship that benefits the agency and how they've created an agency that is in high demand not only by clients but by protective employees as well. Brett Curry is the CEO of OMG Commerce, a performance marketing agency that manages YouTube, Google, and Amazon campaigns for growing ecommerce brands. They're a Google Premiere partner and Amazon partner. Brett is also the host of two ecommerce podcasts Spicy Curry and Ecommerce Evolution, where he highlights what's new and coming in e-commerce.

Head over toAgencyMastery360.com/covert Listen to our Smart Agency podcast episode with Chris Brewer, OMG Commerce where he shares 4 major agency sales mistakes and the systems you need to sales success. Pivoting Away from the Full-Service Agency Model For as long as he can remember, Brett has been captivated by the world of advertising and marketing. Even while on vacation, he can be found diving into the latest marketing books and publications. His passion was sparked early on when he discovered direct-response marketing gurus like J. Abrahams and Dan Kennedy in his teens. Though the mediums may have changed over the years, as an agency owner he has maintained that intrinsic drive to understand what makes great marketing. Brett and his partner first started the agency in 2010. By then, he had a successful career in marketing and owned a company focused on print, TV, radio, and direct mail. The agency started a project to try their luck with online advertising. They started with local Google map optimization for businesses and was a hit right away. With time, they started doing website design, copywriting, and TV advertising. However, it quickly became too much and they pivoted away from that full-service model. It was time to drop some services and focus exclusively on an area where they truly shined. The clear answer was search marketing. It combined all the things they were really good at as a team, so they went all in. Right away they formed some key partnerships and started working with ecommerce clients. Creating Balance with Your Agency Business Partner Starting out, both Brett and his partner had existing businesses to lead, so balancing the agency became a challenge. How could they each utilize their skill sets and still work as a team? They share the most important value which is their trust in marketing and leadership style. When it comes to their individual strengths, Brett is really good at pitches and leading teams while his partner loves everything about the sales process and is very good about following up. This is how they complement each other and divide the workload. For agency owners with co-founders, Brett recommends having very clear expectations about what each one brings to the table. It's good to have this in writing from the beginning instead of figuring it out along the road. In fact, this is something they still revisit 16 years later when they talk about how their roles need to shift every couple of years as the agency grows. The most important thing is having a good understanding of each partner's personality and areas of genius. Get clear about how you'll work together and which decisions you can make individually and which must include all partners. Cultivating Agency Leadership and Building a Great Team For Brett, everything rises and falls on good leadership. To ensure he's creating the best conditions to build great team leaders, he leads a monthly leadership development training open to everyone in the agency. He's a big believer in providing the right resources and training to empower people to make decisions. This is the fastest way to prevent a bottleneck where every decision has to be run by you. Having good leaders working alongside you ensures they can make decisions. It's not easy to do for agency owners. We love to solve problems! But you need to show people you trust them to make decisions. Finding and training great leaders starts with the hiring process. Brett is proud of his agency's process and the type of people their culture attracts. They've had some disastrous experiences with past hires, which have mostly traced back to hiring friends of friends. They've since learned a lot from their mistakes and made great key hires who have been with the agency for a long time. How to attract the right people to your agency team. Brett loves podcasting and speaking at events and admits he would do it just for fun. However, he says a really cool benefit of having a podcast and being a regular speaker at industry events is not only attracting clients but also attracting employees, too. 2-Step Strategy to Take eCommerce Brands to the Next Level Brett declares YouTube as one of the fastest-growing and most used platforms by younger generations. If you want to learn or research something, YouTube is the place to go. It has reach and targetability so you can be really specific about what you want to reach. As opposed to other platforms where the video is just doing part of the work, on YouTube the video is everything. YouTube videos must interrupt, grab attention, overcome objections, demonstrate the product, get the viewer to take action, and have the right pacing. Furthermore, it's important to understand video ad campaign structure to identify how to bid, measure, and look at things to get the most out of your video. It's not enough to measure direct conversions. Many people watch an ad and then go to Amazon rather than click through and purchase directly. Owned by Google, YouTube holds all the search behavioral data you need. They've been collecting the data for decades and you can tap into that keyword search behavior and target people based on that. Build your audience based on what people search on Google so they'll see your ad. YouTube really understands audiences and creatives. Brett has witnessed many shifts in the marketing game over the years. However, he still thinks email remains as powerful as ever. It's a good way to warm someone up to your brand and cultivate them into a great client before they buy. Once they do buy, it's also a great way to get them ready to get the most out of the product. It basically facilitates repeat purchases and product launch sequences. Put them together for a strategy that takes brands to the next level. YouTube ads are a great way to get people introduced to a product and send them to a landing page to opt-in to an email list. Then, use email to close the deal. In fact, in Brett's opinion, a direct-to-consumer e-commerce brand email should be responsible for 30% to 45% of revenue. Do You Want to Transform Your Agency from a Liability to an Asset?

I was recently asked how you make sure you're mentally, emotionally, and physically available for other people when you're an entrepreneur. Wearing the entrepreneurial hat is so rewarding but it does require balance and boundaries. In this episode, I share what creating balance and boundaries looks like in my life both personally and professionally.Connect on social media @ MACIE RENAE COACHING.Website: macierenae.comJoin THE HYBRID EXPERIENCE by September 23rd: https://www.macierenae.com/the-hybrid-experience.html
