395 | Race Car Brain with Nicholas Hunziker About Nicholas: Nicholas was first originally from Switzerland. He's a long-time motoring enthusiast, licensed racer, and fourth-generation painter. He now lives and works in the U.S. as a professional automotive fine artist. He trained at Pasadena ArtCenter College of Design and incorporates many elements of Art Deco advertising posters in his paintings - a style he called, “Period Correct.” He's worked with the likes of Porsche, 24h Le Mans, McLaren, and Ford, to create one-of-a-kind art pieces and automotive-themed design prints for apparel and products. [00:03:26] - Nicholas talks about a 20-foot painting he was commissioned to do in 2015 for Porsche and says more about his artwork and his business. [00:04:30] - Mentioned here: [00:05:29] - Hear more about Nicholas' family history of artists, Art Deco, photography, and postmodernism. [00:07:01] - Nicholas gives an honest answer when people ask him how they can become a painter, his thoughts on corporate culture, the types of clients he's worked with, and what he did before becoming a full-time painter. [00:10:07] - A relatable moment of time-blindness is mentioned here. (Implied; the phrase, “time-blindness” is not actually mentioned here.) Then, Eric and Nicholas dive more into ADHD and how it's “the worst-named disorder in the world”, the difference between hyperfocus and flow, and how Nicholas experiences hyperfocus. [00:14:19] - Eric talks about the COVID hobby he picked up - painting - and asks Nicholas about changing brushes. A question for the listener: Is it just Eric? Or do you think painters with ADHD have to buy more brushes because “we” don't clean them off fast enough? [00:21:47] - Nicholas answers Eric's question: “From what you're learning so far, how do you see ADHD showing up in your work, in a way that challenges your work?” Here, Nicholas opens up about mindfulness and other tools he uses, and how he organizes his environment. He also opens up about impulse control and not being able to say “no”, being an instigator, and how his ADHD affects his business and relationship. [00:24:05] - Eric and Nicholas talk about starting “22 things at the same time”, deadlines, and perfectionism. Later, they talk about how long it can take Nicholas to finish a painting. [00:27:52] - Hear a helpful reframe on how hyperfocus can potentially be more draining, rather than a superpower. Then, Nicholas talks about the energy differences when he paints versus sketching, how long it takes him to figure out details for historical accuracy, and how perfectionism plays a role. [00:34:03] - Mentioned here: [00:43:26] - Nicholas shares how his ADHD has affected his relationship, the challenges they've had to face together, and how a fantastic referral led him to his ADHD diagnosis. [00:46:26] - Eric and Nicholas share a moment when it comes to filling out forms and how they change their handwriting. [00:48:07] - Nicholas talks about the research phase of ADHD, how he's still learning, how the scope of his ADHD has affected his life and the people around him, losing things, and getting derailed. Unintentional tip from Nicholas: Walk around with paper in your hand, it looks like you're going somewhere. Or, you can hold a phone to your ear! [00:51:18] - Eric and Nicholas talk about auditory processing and dyscalculia, recalling conversations, emotional scarring, and the messiness of sequencing events. Then, they talk about taking notes and how Leonardo da Vinci would handwrite. [00:53:59] - Nicholas opens up about communication challenges, his triggers, his tendencies, and his awareness of his reactions. [00:56:49] - Nicholas shares an analogy about an intention versus the effect of the intention. [00:58:39] - Eric and Nicholas talk more about being emotionally laden, emotional defense mechanisms, and forgetfulness. [01:01:56] - Nicholas gives his thanks. He hopes this episode can help someone listening to his story, too.

** There's still room for YOU to join the 26th season of the award-winning ADHD reWired Coaching and Accountability Groups, starting in October! Head over to to find out how you can be a part of these intensive, online and video-based coaching and accountability groups, so you can get your ADHD rewired and rewrite your ADHD story! [00:02:20] - Eric has the first ADHD moment of the show [00:04:38] - Question: A listener who was recently diagnosed with ADHD asks about hyperfocus, prioritizing, and how to tell the difference between something that is a “new” passion versus a hyperfocus, versus a new commitment that may lose interest in. Learn as much as you can about ADHD. It's a disorder where information makes a difference. If you can anticipate the things in your environment that you're more susceptible to falling into hyperfocus and plan for them. Our tendencies can be double-edged swords. Ask ourselves: Is it a passion or calling, or something we're just doing a deep dive on? Have a place to store your ideas, because it doesn't mean you have to act on them and continue to scroll. It's okay to be curious about it, and observe if the curiosity will fade tomorrow before acting on it. The more we are engaged in thinking about it (our ADHD), the more we are going to take our lives off auto pilot. Is it a time-suck or a time-investment? Learning about ADHD is really learning more about ourselves. [00:14:33] - Question: What is the most frustrating thing about your ADHD? This listener's most frustrating thing is having to wait for stuff. But first, Barb and Eric have a moment! Roxie: working memory in almost every aspect of her life, and shares a working-memory moment. Moira: day-to-day is waiting, but the big-impact ADHD frustration is impulsivity with blurting out. Will: An extreme lack of executive function while recovering from COVID (at the time of this recording) and activating on the task at hand. MJ: Impulsivity to never (or rarely) say “no”. Then optimism kicks in, then they realize they can't do all the things, even though their ADHD wants to do all the things. Brendan: The “waiting-brain” and having trouble initiating prior to something bigger in the future. Eric: Transitioning or moving on to the next thing, and multi-tracking and maintenance in multiple domains of life at once. [00:19:37] - Question: A listener is one month away from having a baby and is in serious need of working on their recently diagnosed ADHD, and wonders how to balance these. Suggestions: Don't join a coaching group (yet). Focus on your baby and get to know your baby because the years will fly by. Learn more about ADHD by listening to podcasts, because you can listen to a podcast and feed a baby at the same time. The more passive the learning, the easier it's going to be to fit in [the learning] around your baby. When you're pregnant, your body has a lot of estrogen which helps your ADHD. When you deliver, those hormones decrease. Women with ADHD have a much higher rate of postpartum depression largely due to this drop. Figure out what works for you even when others want to give advice, ask for help, don't be afraid to ask for help, and take care of yourself. [00:30:55] - Question: A listener, who is a startup cofounder, asks about navigating and managing rejection in a practical way, and avoiding participation with the anxiety of facing rejection. It's not just about competing with someone else, it's about competing and challenging ourselves. Is there risk? Yes. The only guarantee if a “no” is to not do the thing that scares us. Ask ourselves: Can you do everything that you think you can do and at the same time, understand that it might not go your way, or seal your own fate by not doing anything? Ask ourselves: What's our mindset when we go into these things? Ask ourselves: Do we love what we're doing? One of the things that makes rejection so hard is the story we tell ourselves about why we were rejected. If we change the story and make it one that serves us rather than one that undermines us, it's easier to take that risk the next time because we're not ruined by the story we told ourselves. [00:35:16] - A listener gets burnt out from doing productive things, but when they feel burnt out, they know exactly what they need to do to recharge. But when they feel like they need to do more things, they don't feel like they have the right to recharge. (The panelists can relate!) “I need to do all my work first before I can recharge” may be an old story we tell ourselves. We can't only do the work because that's what leads to burnout. Nobody gets everything done on their to-do lists, including neurotypical people. Ask ourselves: What's the story we tell ourselves? What are the remnants of our old belief patterns? Are we making up for our ADHD? Plan the time off first, and protect that time after it's been planned. We're never going to escape the mental trap that says, “Oh, I could do more.” Sure, we could do more, but with diminishing returns. You deserve to have self-care, whether you've gotten the stuff done or not. Write down a compelling “why” to help remember why it was prioritized. [00:41:13] - A listener, who is also a new dad, is overwhelmed and finds himself doing anything else except for the things he feels he needs to do. Both him and his partner have ADHD. Balance the sleep by swapping nights with your partner and experiment with a rhythm that works for you. Ask for help and be open about what your struggles are, that doesn't necessarily need to disclose the ADHD. [00:44:50] - A listener asks what kinds of movies the panelists like to watch! Eric: Death to Smoochie MJ: Oceans 13, Atlantis, The Emperor's New Groove, otherwise they watch documentaries or true-crime Will: Mostly watched kids movies recently; really enjoyed The Mitchells vs. The Machines. Will also enjoys comedies and light-hearted things. He even enjoys “terrible” movies (movies that are so bad they're good.) Moira: needs movies with a story to stay engaged. Otherwise, she enjoys Pride & Prejudice (both versions), period pieces, and movies with mysteries but aren't scary. She also enjoys rom-coms. Brendan: All the Marvel movies, Star Wars, fantasy stuff, heist movies, especially Oceans 11. Roxie: Jojo Rabbit, comedies that take her by surprise and are really quirky. Barb really likes comedies and action movies like the Fast & Furious movies, and series like Umbrella Academy. Honorable mentions: Sharknado Tremors 6 Ticket to Hawaii 5-Headed Shark Poseidon Rex [00:55:57] - A listener, who was diagnosed with ADHD over ten years ago as an adult, and is wondering if there is any ADHD medication that can be taken while breastfeeding. It comes down to risk-reward of the baby and managing ADHD. Some folks have found it safe to take the medication, depending on medical history. Bottom line: Talk to your doctor, and make sure your doctor knows you and understands ADHD. Talk to your pharmacist. [00:59:08] - Between ADHD, a brain injury, hormones, and anxiety, a listener is feeling like a dysfunctional mess. Coaching, therapy, meds, and techniques haven't worked for them thus far, and are feeling down more frequently. Number one: Putting yourself first and being kind to yourself. Questions asked back to the listeners: How many of us did help not work until we had the right help? What are your protective factors? What does your support look like? What community support networks exist that you can take advantage of? We have an inner voice or inner critic we're allowed to ‘tell off'. [01:04:25] - Eric shares an update about his Phish tickets and shares some lessons learned about travelling. [01:05:44] - A listener, newly diagnosed with ADHD, asks about dealing with transitions. Ask someone to help and share that transition-piece with someone else. Use a timer, but make sure it's a timer it's not on your phone. Make it something that will have you get up from your chair if the “gravity” of your chair is getting stronger. Limit context switching whenever possible. Try doing everything in one space that you need to do in that space before transitioning onto the next. “Break for Eyes” on iOS desktop. Build in more buffer time between switching. Have an alarm for the upcoming transition as a “nudge” of what's coming up, not the transition itself. Every transition is really two transitions: You have to transition out of what you're doing, then into whatever is coming up next. There are three kinds of transitions Physical transitions Emotional transitions Intellectual transitions [01:11:29] - Enjoy the last minute moment-of-dad from the Dad-Joke King himself, Will Curb.

This week, Eric talks with his guest, Henry Holman, about how some of the lessons he's learned through gaming can also apply to real life, the impact of discovering when you're not alone with your ADHD, and dive into a quick coaching session for tips and strategies to managing your to-do's. About Henry: Henry is going to be a senior at DePaul University, studying computer science and is working towards a career in game programming. Although he was diagnosed at 9 years old, he didn't start learning about ADHD until he was 19, and remains fascinated with the “why” behind his ADHD-ness. He has loved video games for as long as he can remember, and in recent years, he has learned a lot about himself as he strives to improve at competitive Super Smash Brothers™. His long term career goal is to create a game that makes players feel like they have ADHD, to increase awareness and understanding surrounding the disorder. This is one of the first episodes in a while where Eric gets to have a guest in-studio! [00:02:48] - Eric asks how Henry got into video games. It all started with a Game Boy Color™ and a McDonalds toy. Henry and his siblings also split a game console.Then Eric and Henry hash out their virtual tennis accomplishments, and why a lamp-timer is helpful. [00:04:39] - Henry talks about a video game he wants to create that will make people feel like they have ADHD. His brother recommends a game to play, where the underlying theme of the game is a metaphor for overcoming the character's anxiety, and why it resonated with Henry. He also talks about a game he's played where the character in the game suffers from psychosis, which also gave him inspiration. Fun fact: The game Henry mentions in the timestamp above was, indeed, made in collaboration with neuroscientists and mental health professionals. Henry says, “They didn't want to do [the game] a disservice” and wanted to break a misrepresentation of mental health in games. Read more: [00:08:31] - Eric asks where Henry is at [with his game]. Henry has already made some prototype levels, designed after , and how the levels represent these deficits. [00:11:00] - Eric and Henry talk about enthusiasm vs. pursuing a passion professionally. Henry reflects on an episode of ADHD reWired he's listened to. “We don't have the luxury [with ADHD] of doing things we don't like to do for a living” is a phrase that resonates with how he felt about school. [00:12:44] - Henry really wanted to do game design as a career, but got a “C” in a game-design class, but didn't quite know what it was he truly wanted to do. Later on, Henry discovers a love for programming, problem-solving, and playing with Lego and K'nex. [00:15:31] - A moment of ADHD happens right before the break. [00:22:26] - Henry started educating himself after getting stuck on breaking his skill-ceiling, and talks about the game he dove into to learn how to play competitively. Eric and Henry nerd out about their “mains” in Super Smash Brothers™. Henry explains how picking up a new character in the game was a perfect metaphor for living life with ADHD. [00:27:13] - “Autopilot” isn't effective. Henry talks about how his skill-ceiling led to frustration, and coming up with new strategies after losing another set. When he realizes his ADHD may have something to do with his struggles, he talks about diving into ADDitude magazine articles, watching videos on YouTube, and going down the ADHD Reddit rabbit-hole. [00:30:48] - Henry learns about tournament-nerves, staying calm under pressure, and being able to control impulses, and how in Super Smash Brothers™ was helpful to apply the principles he learned to the real world. [00:33:20] - Henry recommends taking a drink of water to knock your body out of fight-flight-freeze mode, and how it became his pause-mechanism. [00:34:33] - Henry's passion about games “speaks to if we're going to problem-solve around any area of life, if we can figure out a way to put it through the lens of what we are passionate about, it gives our brain a fighting chance.” - Eric [00:40:55] - Eric and Henry go through some coaching about a consistent system to keep track of his to-do's. From a digital-assignment notebook and a whiteboard. [00:44:46] - Eric and Henry talk about the assignment books they received in school, and dive into some of the tools Henry used to use, and how what has worked before never lasted for him, aside from Google Calendar. Then, Eric asks, “What if we can… shift to the mindset from ‘I want to find a consistent tool' to being quick to pivot when we realize we are no longer paying attention to this tool?” [00:47.01] - Eric talks about the different places his to-do's live, and what Eric found helpful for him. Eric also recommends setting a reminder that asks, “Am I using this tool?” Then, Henry reflects on how this could work for him. Eric also recommends using an erasable pen when using a paper-calendar. [00:49.07] - Henry shares his issue with communication, how he stores the information he's been given, and how shorthand isn't always the best way to store that information. [00:52:14] - Eric goes over keeping track of to-do's, then checking-in with the to-do's. Mentioned here: Book - (affiliate link) [00:54:52] - “The thing that I think is most important to be cognizant of is, ‘What are you doing now, what are you doing next?' ...because knowing what's next makes transitions easier. Everything else is a distraction.” - Eric [00:56:39] - Henry shares his takeaways and the systems he wants to try, which include implementing the reminders about his systems in his calendar, and keeping an “encyclopedia” or an “owner's manual” of strategies of what he has done in the past. Eric also encourages rotating through the tools we have.

This is an episode you won't want to miss. Listen in as Eric - and his guest, Aron Croft - talk about the coping mechanisms Aron went through before he was diagnosed, the lessons he learned from his failures, and how he rose like the pheonix from Procrastinator in Chief to developing an ADHD-friendly productivity system you can't not hear about! About Aron: Aron appeared to have it all together when he got into Harvard. But that was the beginning of his demise. He struggled non-stop for 15 years until he was broke, divorced, and earning minimum wage, failing out of his first seven jobs and businesses. But after getting a masters degree in coaching psychology and a diagnosis of inattentive ADHD, his life changed. He built a successful fortune 500 career, got married, and discovered how to get shit done with a neurodivergent brain. RIght before Eric and Aron hit record, Aron also adds another skill in pillow fort building for reducing slap-back audio in a not-perfectly-acoustic room! [00:02:26] - Eric and Aron start at the “bottom” of Aron's story. Aron gets into Harvard and explains how he dropped out twice before graduating, hating school, being outmatched and outclassed. He lost the structure he had around him, moving from south Florida to Boston, and was sick of the pain to get things done by waiting until the last minute until fear motivated him to get things done, studying computer science. Eric affirms that activation energy can be amazing, but comes at a price. [00:05:10] - Aron talks about the ways he got through high school, building relationships with teachers that felt inauthentic, feeling like he needed to be studying subjects that had “right” answers, such as math and science. He goes into how it was easier to bounce back from dropping out of school the first time. [00:07:11] - Aron shares how he moved his life to an island off the coast of New Zealand, his plan to retire early, and what came out of these decisions he made in his early 20's, navigating with some minor inconvenient factors he'd overlooked. Even though Aron and his then-fiance quickly discovered boredom, he doesn't regret his decisions. [00:10:00] - Eric and Aron agree on the idea of boredom and “retirement”. Then, they discuss the “drug” of self-improvement. Then, Eric asks Aron how they got off the island. [00:11:55] - Aron teaches Eric and the listeners about “The Harvard Curse” and being heavily influenced by his environment. [00:13:32] - “It's applying it that's challenging for me.” - Aron [00:22:16] - Eric asks Aron about the next 15 years. Aron talks about his first job out of school and a decision he wasn't proud of in that chapter of his life. He then talks about the other jobs he had, but repeated a pattern of letting things pile up until the last minute to get things done. Aron explains how this affected his relationship - navigating without yet being diagnosed with ADHD. After a year and some at his second job, he takes his ambitious 25-year-old-self to start a business in real-estate. Then, queue a slight tangent about their handyman skills! [00:25:41] - Aron shares a realization about being his own boss, moving to Australia, and going into sales. He then discovers a world-renowned program at the University of Sydney in Executive Coaching, seeing a Master's Program in Coaching Psychology, changing the trajectory of his life for the better. His passion shines here, and tells the story about how a gag-gift from a friend sparked his relationship with personal development. [00:30:50] - Eric and Aron fast forward to when he moved back from Australia to Chicago and landing a new job. Receiving some feedback and realizing his position is now at risk, Aron shares his story about the measures he took to keep himself employed. Mentioned here: If you are struggling with addiction, here are some resources available in the United States & Canada: In the United States: In Canada: - The Government of Canada website lists the resources available for each province. [00:38:14] - Eric has Aron dive into his “holy shit” moment of only having two weeks to redo his work while under probation. Aron talks about his “swiss-cheese” resume and the drastic measure (which is NOT endorsed by ADHD reWired and its team or Aron Croft). He [Aron] then realized what it meant when people told him to “just focus.” Eric also affirms the Oh-moment, while Aron explains how these actions led to scheduling an appointment to getting an ADHD diagnosis. Then, Eric and Aron share the experience when they were asked how they managed to “survive” and “get this far” before getting diagnosed. [00:42:55] - Aron not only finishes his work after getting thrown under the bus, his environment changes and starts ADHD medication, and starts crushing it - getting promoted four times in six years. Then, Eric throws Aron a tough question, as he recounts working 9 hour days in a job he didn't love, leading to some isolation. Aron shares his realization when ADHD medication wasn't enough and needed to see the bigger picture and using specific strategies. [00:46:17] - Eric reflects on his past successes and how he would do things differently. [00:47:50] - Aron shares the process of how he went from “Procrastinator in Chief” to developing the SMASH productivity System, his thoughts and feelings as he dug into the process while looking into his future, and what happened after his “fit of freaking out”. He talks about 30-minute productivity blocks, then mastering those principles in a 30-minute block that he could replicate. [00:50:56] - “I'm not going to outwork neurotypicals, so I need to outsmart them.” - Aron [00:51:01] - Select High-Leverage Actions [00:52:13] - Minimize Distractions [00:52:42] - Add Accountability [00:55:30] - Schedule it First! [00:56:51] - Hone Your Process [00:58:03] - Aron mentions using the Staircase Method and layering small improvements overtime. [00:58:57] - Aron & Eric share their closing thoughts… and it's definitely worth a listen.

In 1864, two ships' crews were cast away at the same time on the same remote island in the Southern Ocean. But the two groups would undergo strikingly different experiences. In this week's episode of the Futility Closet podcast we'll tell the story of the Auckland Islands castaways and reflect on its implications for the wider world. We'll also consider some fateful illnesses and puzzle over a street fighter's clothing. Intro: Lewis Carroll proposed fanciful logic problems. In 1946, a kangaroo made off with William Thompson's money.

If you've wanted to hear more about ADHD reWired Coach, Roxie Martin, then this is the show you need to listen to. In this episode, Eric and Roxie get vulnerable and dive into tackling fear, facing joy, and what it means for them to show up. About Roxie: Roxie Martin is a certified life-coach, currently coaching her second season of ADHD reWired's Coaching and Accountability Groups. She has 35 years of research experience in what it's like to be an adult with ADHD, and a lifetime of hard-won wisdom to share. She has a colorful and diverse background that allows her to deeply relate and connect with almost anyone. She has been a ministry leader, a wife, a mom, a hair stylist, and a mentor. She is compassionate, encouraging, and has a finely-tuned bullshit-meter that helps cut quickly through the fluff and get right to the good stuff. [00:02:17] - Eric and Roxie go into the timeline of how she became one of the ADHD reWired Coaches. From ArC member to peer mentor, Eric wanted Roxie to become a coach for the groups. [00:03:57] - Eric asks Roxie if she's always innately had [her bullshit-meter] - her answer feels like an honest yes and explains why it feels weird to say it. They talk about intuition, as Eric feels like grad school beat the intuition out of [them] and learned not to trust the intuition, but has learned to listen to and amplify his intuition through coaching. [00:05:31] - Eric talks about the vision of how things were “supposed” to go, have a laugh about how things went out-of-order, and how Roxie is coaching her second season and starting up a podcast with Will Curb called, “Wait, What was the Question?” [00:06:40] - Eric and Roxie dive into who Roxie is, and the vulnerabilities Roxie has been exploring in her own life. Roxie goes more into “counterfeit” vulnerability through her own exploration and self-awareness. She talks about things that hadn't changed over the years, and what she did when she was put into situations she had to be vulnerable in. Roxie goes more into what her actions used to be and verbalizes the feelings that came up for her when faced with a choice to take the easy or vulnerable way through. [00:09:16] - Roxie answers Eric's question about what it is she was numbing from. She talks about where she noticed it [the feelings] came up the most, such as events or parties or being in settings where she's not comfortable - particularly social things, and where she knew she would have to have a hard conversation. [00:10:27] - Roxie talks about what got her more curious, with Eric's impression that she looks through a lens of curiosity. Roxie says she wishes she had a bullshit meter for herself but can feel it when she's justifying, compromising, or playing small. She then talks about why she's played small. She acknowledges she's not able to change it, but is not able to ignore it. Hear more here about her beginning when she first joined ArC and talks about being dumb on purpose. She also talks about creating a safe space for the members of her groups. [00:13:22] - Eric asks what her training has taught her about showing up in group. She says she's learned a lot more about coaching from being part of the ArC seasons, with her classes still being valuable. She then dives into compassion being great, but you need compassion and strength in order to feel safe and secure. Roxie dives into why the strength-piece is important, talks about the ways we communicate information, and trusting the intuition and gut with the knowledge and strength. [00:22:41] - Roxie and Eric shine a light on what Roxie has seen in her coaching sessions, what stands out for her, and what she's learned from the members. She talks about impulse control, the excitement of witnessing growth and self-realized epiphanies, and reframing self-talk, reiterating that it's a hard place to make progress without curiosity and compassion. Roxie also reveals some of the tips and tricks she's learned from members. [00:27:04] - Roxie explains more about picking up tools and how it's helped her teach what she's learned. Eric also talks about feeling clueless, being on time for class in grad-school, and explains why it's important to dig into this stuff [as coaches.] He also talks about giving space as such an important skill, recognizing that Roxie does that really well. [00:29:35] - Eric dives more into what Roxie mentioned earlier about “impulse control” and allowing members to make their own discoveries. Roxie dives into what she feels when she notices when she's only giving advice, and how the impulse of giving advice comes from being in some kind of fear. Eric talks about the foggy mirror, as Roxie explains setting up her environment to show up mentally, emotionally, physically. [00:32:33] - Roxie revisits Eric's earlier question about her favorite types of people to work with. Roxie loves the diversity of folks she gets to work with, and instead shares the types of people she is most intimidated by. Then, they dive deep into the different types of vulnerability, and how different people will see vulnerability differently based on their own vulnerabilities. Roxie then verbalizes about adapting her approach to the different types of vulnerability that will come up in the coaching groups, and meeting people where they're at. Roxie truly believes everyone has value and something to offer, and emphasizes why she works to set up the groups to be the safest place it can be. [00:36:11] - “Vulnerability will look really similar to certain personality types.” - Roxie [00:37:12] - “What is intuition's […] thinking mind, and that's curiosity.” - Eric [00:42:57] - Roxie gets really vulnerable about how scary it is to acknowledge how much she loves what she's doing. She dives even more into playing small, and how it was a strategy she adopted early on. She then goes in head first about joy and maintaining control around her own emotions. [00:45:53] - The biggest obstacle for really taking [the coaching group content in] is all the bullshit in our heads. Roxie explains being curious, trusting the process, and how great things happen when we can trust the process. [00:46:29] - “You're not defective, there's nothing wrong… We will be here. It's an ongoing thing…” Roxie verbalizes what she wants for the coaching group members, and how this really is a community on the same path. Here, you really hear the joy in her voice of how much love she has for doing what she does with and in these groups. [00:47:20] - Eric “outs” Roxie (and himself) about how “none of us” have [their] shit together, and how they set the record straight during group, as Eric reflects on his past-self compared to where he is now. [00:49:16] - Roxie is amazed at how exciting things are on the other side of fear, and talks about the anxiety and fear from her first season when she started coaching. Then, when she was able to do it anyway, she realized the fear didn't last and went through the whole process to where she is now, all with a growth mindset.

This week, we have the full panel of the ADHD reWired Podcast Family joining in for this month's Q&A Session, recorded on July 13th 2021. Find all the good stuff below! [00:03:56] Maria, a mom and former teacher, asks about subtypes of ADHD. She also asks about structure and looks for tools to strategize while jump-starting a teaching career online and plan better. Eric explains how ADHD “subtypes” shifted to “presentations” because over time, the presentation of ADHD can change. He also goes in depth about the diagnostic criteria, and the differences between children and adults. Most adults are the “combined” type of ADHD, along with Eric himself. When looking for strategies, he goes on to explain how it's important to look at the functional impairments. Any kind of diagnosis is a starting point, but isn't prescriptive. Moira explains how as people age, the more we internalize symptoms, so the hyperactivity may be more in thought rather than physically hyperactive. Women are also more likely to be inattentive, in the inattentive type. As Maria put it: “Meta inattentiveness!” [00:09:24] Malika asks about menopause and how she's observed that her symptoms have become much worse since it came on full time. Moira talks about estrogen, and once someone goes through menopause, the body doesn't make any more. Estrogen reduces ADHD symptoms, which is why when women are pregnant, they present with fewer ADHD symptoms. And, while women are in perimenopause, the estrogen levels are more erratic than in puberty. She talks about how hormone replacement therapy can be used to replace estrogen, and it also depends on someone's own health profile and family history, and hormone replacement therapy may not be for everyone. Another suggestion was increasing medication during that time, and a lot of things around lifestyle become important. Resource mentioned here: [0:14:31] Sandra asks, “How can I help my 14-year-old son become more organized for high school, and writing notes for his classes to study from for tests?” Brendan asks parents of ADHD kids: What's going on with the IEP and the 504? What are the supports happening at school to help him get to where he needs to be? Brendan says the best option is to have someone take notes or provide them for him so that he has good notes to study from, whether it's a teacher or a peer, so he can study notes that are useful. He explains that someone giving a model can help Sandra's son understand how he should be taking notes so he can do a better job with moving forward. Brendan also explains to be patient as he practices his new [note-taking] skill, and to leverage IEPs, 504s, and talking to teachers, guidance counsellors, special education teachers, etc. Roxie talks about how she's had to work really hard to take better notes and that models are helpful. She acknowledges that it's about incremental changes, because the template or the model doesn't automatically mean we become amazing at it right away. Resource mentioned here: Eric mentions a course on how to draw your notes. He also explains that sometimes we don't know what's important, so we might take notes on everything, then we try to distill what's important and what's not. Brendan also suggests taking notes in two different colors, and to switch colors when a concept changes. Will reiterates the sketchnote idea and is great to help create that organization. Will also mentions the Cornell-style of taking notes, then Brendan goes in depth with how they work and how he makes that style work for him. It can be good for [taking notes during] business meetings, too! Moira found how-to books, and suggests that note taking is a life-long skill. As a teacher, she actively tried to teach these tips to her students, not realizing it was because of her own struggle with it. She also recommends having conversations with educators who are going to be more helpful with things like this, so that it can be looked at as building a lifelong skill. It's also okay for students to rely on their peer groups for good notes, share each other's strengths, and can make studying easier, too. MJ looks at note-taking from the student-perspective and how she would have liked to have been a part of the conversation to explain what works [for her], what doesn't, and why. She explains that allowing kids to have the voice to explain what does work versus being told how it's “supposed” to be done could be really helpful. Roxie brings up how it can be difficult to prioritize what's important. She finds it helpful if she is really specific and succinct about what is going into the note-taking experience and writes a little road map. Eric emphasizes that, with all things ADHD, they require experimentation until we find out what works. [00:30:30] Ryan, who is in her mid-20's, talks about struggling in the workplace with event planning and asks about a good system and starting place for planning, looking for tools on one hand and methods on the other. Eric says she gets to try a bunch of different tools to find the ones that work. Then, once they “stop working”, it's likely because it got boring to use. He explains that there isn't one “right” way to manage “all the things.” One rule, Eric explains, is to, “Get things out of your head. Don't keep things in your head ever, it's one of the most reliable places where things get lost.” In other words: Externalize as much information as possible using things like a calendar or a to-do list. He goes on to say that the issue may not be the tool, but how often we are interacting with the tools we have. Eric then explains how to “cue” ourselves when things are coming up, and to write in more information we need on our to-do lists and in our calendars than we think we need. Brendan shares the way he used to consistently screw up his own calendar, and shares what he does now so that others don't make the same mistakes. He emphasizes writing down a “point-person” when a task or calendar event involves reaching out to someone. Brendan also talks about segmenting the to-do list in “today”, “this week”, and “this month/later”, depending on the individual's ability to hold information and organize, how breaking it down could reduce overwhelm, and to write specific dates so we know when things are coming up and when they are due. Eric gets really specific: “What you're doing NOW, what you're doing NEXT. Everything else is just noise.” Will says the biggest part about using planners is consistency in getting used to that system and how there's no perfect planner. Using one that's “good enough” often really helps, and that it's “okay it's not perfect.” Roxie finds that when she's having a hard time getting things done on her to-do list, it's a good idea for her to check her boundaries if she is saying yes to too many things. Eric-ism: “Just because it got put on your to do list doesn't mean it has squatter rights to stay there.” [00:39:43] Kim asks about food and diet, and how they went on a whole-food plant-based vegan diet. They've found it has helped with their energy and ADHD symptoms, and wonders if that is the experience of others who have gone on a whole-food plan-based vegan diet. MJ talks about how she experimented with pescatarian, vegan, then raw vegan diets in the past. For her, it depended on her activity levels and continues practicing with what her body feels like when she eats certain foods because it's not always the same. She goes on to explain how it [a diet] depends on a person's tolerances, allergies, and that it can take some experimentation, and learning and observing what feels good when we eat certain foods. Will says when we switch to diets like that, we tend to “up” the quality of foods we're eating vs. eating foods detrimental to our ADHD. He also explains that there aren't any specific studies [with data to back up] on diets that are good for ADHD. Roxie talks about inflammation, and how certain foods can cause inflammation, which causes brain-fog. For her, highly refined foods cause her to feel foggy. Eric talks about how corn is in a ton of things, and when there's inflammation, it causes brain-fog, which affects quality of life. On an individual basis, he also encourages paying attention to the foods that do make us feel good, and the ones that don't make us feel good. Experiment, and drink lots of water! Brendan circles back to what Will spoke to - we feel good when we replace “the crap” with broccoli and lettuce and apples and stuff. It's important to recognize what makes us feel better because extreme diets are hard to maintain, and instead look at the fine-tuning. Moira works with a dietician who gave her an analogy: “When we have a sore throat, we're not going to eat scratchy foods because it's going to irritate our throats…. So if we're eating smooth, cold things, it's going to feel better. But it doesn't necessarily mean that we should [always] eat that way.” And if we take something out of our diet like a whole food group but aren't replacing it with something, we may become nutritionally deficient. [00:48:34] Gina is in the middle of getting assessed for ADHD and wonders about medication to bridge the gap between her strategies and her brain. She asks what it felt like if any of the panelists began taking ADHD medication as an adult. She wonders if medication may have a placebo effect or if it's actually working. Eric talks about a WOW-effect when taking ADHD meds/stimulant medication. He vividly remembers taking his ADHD medication and, for the first time, he got through a chapter and actually remembered what he just read. For Eric, when the meds are working, it's a profoundly noticeable difference and shifts him out of neutral. For Brendan, taking ADHD medication was subtle - more of a “heh!” than a “wow”. He noticed he would pick things up and put them away instead of just walking by them, thinking “Oh this must be what neurotypical people do.” Then, Eric and Brendan emphasize that their ADHD medication helps them do the things that normal people make look easy. Moira found that, as she was driving, she wasn't strategizing while driving. ADHD medication also gave her more peace because she didn't have as many thoughts. She explains that folks who have ovaries and a cycle, hormones will impact how medication works throughout the cycle. Moira and Eric also explain that a general rule is to increase medication dosage until the side-effects outweigh the benefits. Will is similar to Brendan with how the medication works for him, and finds it really noticeable when he's not on medication. He notices it takes a long time to form thoughts, has long pauses, and answers things slowly. For Will, medication makes him feel “back to normal”. MJ is also in the “heh” camp like Will and Brendan. The “wow” came later when she noticed that she was able to catch up on two weeks of paperwork when she started medication. Her house got really clean, too. Roxie, while talking with her accountability team, explained how she's had a hard time activating on some things, and lost sight of the medication piece when it came to activation. She wanted to err on the side of caution and spoke with her doctor about her dosage. She was happy to discover she has options. Eric explains how ADHD medication is a very efficacious medication, which does sometimes require trial and error. Jaclyn asks for advice or resources for ADHD parents of ADHD toddlers, especially regarding discipline. Brendan reframes “discipline”, which feels like having to let the kid “know” they're in trouble. He likes to think more about boundaries, especially with toddlers. If they cross the boundary, they can be redirected and reign them in, instead of yelling at them. Gentle boundaries > Yelling. Brendan explains having a relationship with and being on the same team as our kids to reduce conflict, even in their teenage years. Moira explains how her and a friend wish, for their past selves, that there was more education about ADHD, being able to talk about people who had been there before as parents with ADHD and toddlers with ADHD. Moira also emphasizes taking care of ourselves, supporting ourselves, finding community, and doing everything we can to be a good parent. Will has a 6-year-old who is diagnosed. As a parent, it calms him down to assume that they are trying their best and don't know any better. Eric quotes an adage: “[Your kid is] ...not giving you a hard time, they're having a hard time.” Eric explains how ADHD is a developmental delay, and encourages taking the oxygen mask as much as we need to, especially if - as a parent - we also have ADHD. It's okay for the adult in the family to take a time-out, too. Brendan and Roxie wrap up the final thoughts about parenting with ADHD. [01:06:08] Will closes the show with a groan-worthy dad-joke.

What Was the Purpose Of Bringing The Animals?
Give a warm welcome to the human extraordinaire who helps Eric behind-the-scenes as the executive assistant of ADHD reWired - Barb McDonagh! Not only is Barb the biggest fan of her 13-year-old son (who also has ADHD), she also got her B.A. from Columbia College in Chicago majoring in poetry, and a Masters degree in teaching from National Louis University. As of this episode, Barb has been with ADHD reWired for two years. Listen to Eric and Barb as they talk about her journey to discovering her ADHD, how curiosity led to setting healthier boundaries, and how trying something different led to a community of people who you too, just might relate to! What will you find in this episode? [00:01:23] - Eric introduces the one and only Barb McDonagh and talks about how the last two eye-opening years working for ADHD reWired helped her discover her own ADHD and how it's changed the way she looks at her past. [00:03:17] - Barb talks about the reasons why she was interested in ADHD, and how being encouraged to try something different led to where she is now with ADHD reWired. She realizes that all the stories she's read in the spheres of ADHD reWired sounded far too relatable. [00:05:21] - Eric talks about self-examination and growth, while Barb talks about the books she's read and the process of what some of the growth and being curious meant to her. Barb also talks about what kicked her journey off, the process of gaining self-awareness, and how she was diagnosed with inattentive ADHD. [00:08:14] - Barb answers Eric's question, wondering how some of the personal work she's done has affected her family life, and how it's had a positive impact to reduce overwhelm, frustration, and setting healthier boundaries. Barb also mentions how she began asking for help. [00:09:48] - Eric and Barb talk more about boundaries, self-advocating, and what more healthy boundary setting can look like when you feel like you're always on the go.

Planning a vacation is hard. It's even harder when you have ADHD! Listen in as your host, Eric Tivers, and his guest - fellow podcaster and ADHD reWired Coach - Moira Maybin of The ADHD Friendly Lifestyle brainstorm some of the ways you can plan an ADHD-Friendly vacation in an ADHD-Friendly way. About Moira: Moira Maybin has spent 25 years as an educator, working in classrooms, in special education and, as a learning assistance teacher with an educational psychology background. She lived through years of overwhelm and failed attempts at trying harder that compromised her self-care, physical, and mental health until finally receiving her ADHD Diagnosis. After experiencing a terrifying fall off a 50-foot cliff in 2018 that left her with serious injuries, she knew she had to commit to creating an ADHD Friendly Lifestyle and give up on trying harder if she really wanted to thrive. She's since re-shaped her life completely for a better fit, based on current research. Moira has dedicated the last 5 years of her life to diving in deep to learn as much as she can about ADHD and its impact on women. Now she's opening up about what it's like being a woman with late-diagnosed ADHD and a mom of two children, sharing the knowledge she's gained on her own personal journey, and as an educator and advocate for people with ADHD.

Here's a snapshot of a few things we talked about… Who is the Clark Kent, When It Comes to Rod Watson? [00:02:19] His Backstory and Where He Grew Up. [00:03:31] What Was it Like for Him When He Transitioned Back in After Playing Overseas? [00:10:35] Why Do Real Estate Agents Experience Burnout? [00:16:27] Why Did He Decide to Make the Transition into Luxury Real Estate? [00:19:08] How Tough Was it for Him to Break Through the Luxury Real Estate Market? [00:23:55] How Can Someone Break into The Luxury Real Estate Market After Pandemic? [00:32:30] One Thing He Wishes He Had Implemented Sooner to Accelerate His Journey? [00:42:10] His Advice for People Looking to Take Action In This Episode You'll Learn: In this episode, Casanova and Rod talk about how and what you need to break into and excel in the luxury real estate market. Rod is an everyday guy, who loves spending time with his family. Rod has always been a dreamer, ever since he was a kid, he had a bright and colorful imagination. He doesn't believe in just working to create the world that he wants for myself, but also doing so while helping others and living life on his own terms. Rod says that he is a passionate individual, and his family is his main source of motivation. He says that he didn't get into the business of real estate, just for the money aspect. He knew that the money aspect would create equitable opportunities and some stability and long-term financial wealth, if he stayed consistent and persistent with it. Ultimately, he did it because it created the opportunity to have right time to live life on his own terms, time to explore who he is as a human being and to work on manifesting the things that he dreamt about and the things that he wants in his life. Growing up in the historic Fifth Ward community in Houston, Texas, Rod had a troubled childhood. It had a profound impact and effect on him, where it forced him to be in a position where he was on his own. At 14, to escape the negativity in the household, he started living outside. Early on, he had to figure things out on his own, and had to go through that process of dealing with not having a father that was available to him, that he could speak to and discuss those challenges and issues that he was faced with. He found a refuge in sports. When he found out about Michael Jordan, MJ became his idol. He wanted to learn how to play this sport because he wanted to be like Mike. He became that father figure, that superhero, that person he wanted to emulate and follow in his footsteps. It kept him on the straightened arrow until he was able to earn a scholarship to go off to college, which led him to California because he didn't want to stay in Texas. Rod had a mentor at the time, he didn't see him as his mentor. He saw him as a friend, who was a great basketball player, and would play with them during summers. He was the connection that helped him move to California. Rod says that the negative experiences from his early life that profoundly impacted him, also taught him how to be resilient, how to be tough, how to take on challenges head on. When he got the opportunity to play basketball in the state of California, he jumped on it, something he says was the best thing that ever happened to him. Talking about transitioning back after playing basketball overseas, Rod says that he had prepared himself. He realized that he was eventually going to have to stop playing this game. He wrote down some goals and one of those goals was to obtain a master's degree and also, potentially become a college coach. When Rod got a call from his college coach who had just taken a job at our cross-town rival with an offer to join him. He took the assistant's job. The university agreed to pay for his master's degree, along with housing, at the time as a head associate coach and an assistant. Rod believes that it was probably one of the best decisions he made and is thankful that he sat down and wrote his goals out, and what he wanted to obtain for himself. Another one of his goals was also to become a father and a husband, and have a family. Aside from getting a master's degree was also to be a better example to his siblings and to his family as well, by how he lived his life. Rod adds that you have to ultimately have a strong, positive mindset to be persistent and consistent towards working towards your goals, the things that you say you want to accomplish. That's going to allow you to break through and get to that next level that you say you want to be at, or you want to get to. Talking about why he made the transition to luxury real estate, Rod adds that there were a few reasons behind it. First, you would make a lot more money, doing the same amount of work. Secondly, he saw the long-term benefits and building his name and my brand in this space, because then he could take that money and work towards building wealth for himself and his family. Thirdly, he also wanted to create other equitable opportunities outside of real estate for himself in the media space and he's beginning to do that. Rod adds that it takes money to do great things, and to have longevity in this space. It takes money to build wealth. It takes money to live the life you want to live on your own terms and the luxury real estate states space presented that to him. He talks about paving way for his daughters to learn the business, so that one day he could pass that down to his kids, as well as the wealth of knowledge in this space that he learned over the past 15 years. All of that information is going to be passed down to his daughters. Rod adds that the world has convinced us that the only way that you can actually have success in society is by going to college, and it's not. He says he is a living example, when he wrote down his goals, and wanted to be an example to the next generation; his siblings, aunts, and uncles. He wanted to break the generational curses. Rod says that everything's hard in the beginning, it doesn't matter what you're preparing yourself to do. The challenging part is doing the work, that's going to lead to even just giving yourself an opportunity to experience the things that you're seeking, or that you are pursuing in life. For him, it came down to a few things; relationship, knowledge and information. Rod leveraged relationships, immersed himself in gaining the knowledge, and then researching information, to learn about things that he needed to have in order to be more informed about what it's going to take to enter this space and have success. He further adds that faith without any actions is dead. So, if you're not going to put any action behind, you're not going to produce the results. For him, the hard part was just being patient enough to allow that process to manifest or to evolve, and sticking it out to see it through to when he finally got that opportunity to get his first luxury listing. Talking about how they got their first luxury listing, Rod says that it was one of his friends in California, who was an NBA player. It was their first luxury listing million-dollar property. They sold it in less than 30 days, and for a really good price. Rod says that they accomplished two things in one; they sold a luxury property that was owned by an athlete. Rod says that with these individuals, it comes down to trust. He adds that there are four forms of currency, knowledge, time, relationships, and money. Majority of us spend time chasing money, and we devalue relationships. We devalue the fact that our time is our greatest asset next to our health. He says that when he didn't have money and was dead broke in his business, he leveraged knowledge, he leveraged his time and he leveraged the relationship that he had, that opened doors for him. For people looking to secure listings in the luxury real estate market, Rod says that it's about operating in the circles of where those people are, and utilizing the four forms of currencies. Those people aren't just looking for a real estate agent. You should seek to build and leverage relationships with those who know you and like you, that operate in the space of those individuals that you seek to work with. If you don't have those relationships, you got to put the work in and put the time in and increase your knowledge in that space, and you got to learn the business. So, by learning and getting the knowledge, you can learn how to effectively market yourself, where you have to build your brand, your presence. You also have to be in those places where these people are. So, that is either through relationships or friendships. Cass adds that you have to show that you're different. Rod says that you have to be strategic, intentional, and you have to be committed. Rod says that you can only acquire knowledge through time and being consistent and persistent about seeking that information out. He says that the only regret that he has is that he should have started sooner. If he had the knowledge that he has today, he would have started right out, and probably wouldn't even have gone to college. For people looking to take action, Rod says that you have everything you need within you, that God has given you, that's your gift. Just have a strong undeniable belief in yourself, regardless of how you feel or where you're at today. If you have a dream that is a signal right away to let you know, you have everything you need within you. Key Quotes: “I enjoy just being a regular guy. I don't seek attention from people. I don't need validation from others…” “I'm just someone that's passionate about my dreams, passionate about living this experience that we call life as human beings…” “In spite of my hardship and challenges that I was faced with that became my refuge, that became my church, that became my sanctuary being on the basketball court competing…” “That started with writing down my goals and then actually planning and preparing for the future that I wanted to have for myself…” “Sometimes you have to realize that it's going to require you to get out of your comfort zone and there's levels, right, it's like a video game…” “I saw luxury being able to create the opportunities for me to further live out my life in the way that I wanted to live it, around the things that I'm passionate about…” “I've gained that knowledge and information of being in this industry 15 years so, that's wealth in itself...” “If you have enough belief in yourself, you go out and you work towards building and creating something, that in itself is wealth…” “I tell people all the time, if you want to enter the space, you got to do the work…” “I've learned very early on that If you can leverage knowledge, if you can leverage time and you can leverage relationships, money will come…” “Relationships can get you into any door that a degree can not necessarily…” “If you study the greats too, they have a strategic approach to everything they do, period…” “Start is the hardest part…” Links/Resources: https://www.instagram.com/rodwatson23/ https://www.lavipagent.com/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/rod-watson-9a047932/ rod@lavipagent.com 281-797-3841 Help us out?

What Was the Medical Cause of Jesus’s Death? Pagan Origins of Easter
My guests this week are Pat and Tammy McLeod. They shared about their family’s experience of loss and healing, which they describe in their book Hit Hard: One Family's Journey of Letting Go of What Was—and Learning to Live Well with What Is (affiliate link). You’ll hear them describe in this episode the traumatic brain injury that nearly killed their son when he was sixteen years old, and dramatically changed his life, and his family’s. We discussed the pain of ambiguous loss: when we have a loved one on one level, but don’t have them on another. And we talked about where Pat and Tammy find hope and comfort. I know you’ll take a lot from this discussion, as they describe the many challenges they’ve been through, and the strength they found to meet every one.

Will IU have a giant vaccination pod in a couple months’ time? Will vaccinations be required for students to come back to campus in the fall?

After two semesters of answering every question the IU community could think of in weekly webinars, he gamely came on the show to answer Dean Shanahan and Professor Monaghan’s burning questions as we round the corner toward mass vaccinations and a hopeful return to on-campus life.

Sean Carroll's Mindscape: Science, Society, Philosophy, Culture, Arts, and Ideas
How can, and should, we talk to each other, especially to people with whom we disagree? “Free speech” is rightfully entrenched as an important value in liberal democratic societies, but implementing it consistently and fairly is a tricky business. Political theorist Teresa Bejan comes to this question from a philosophical and historical perspective, managing to relate broad principles to modern hot-button issues. We talk about the importance of tolerating disreputable beliefs, the senses in which speech acts can be harmful, and how “civility” places demands on listeners as well as speakers.Support Mindscape on Patreon.Teresa Bejan received an M.Phil. in Political Thought and Intellectual History from Cambridge and a Ph.D. in Political Science from Yale. She is currently Associate Professor of Political Theory and Fellow of Oriel College at the University of Oxford. Among her awards are the American Political Science Association’s Leo Strauss Award for the best dissertation in political philosophy and the inaugural Early Career Prize for the greatest overall contribution to research and teaching in political thought from the Britain & Ireland Association for Political Thought. Her book Mere Civility: Disagreement and the Limits of Toleration considers political speech through the lens of early modern debates about religious liberty.Web siteOxford web pageMere CivilityGoogle Scholar publicationsWikipediaTalk on “What Was the Point of Equality?”Twitter

Lots to discuss people. Lots to discuss. Where to begin? Audience Appreciation Day is alive and well with avid listener David Goldberg. What's the most interesting thing about David Goldberg? The fact that he listens to the BTVR Podcast. Not even close, although thank you. The fact that he was both Jill Zarin as well as Dorinda Medley's Personal Assistant. Oh yes, we have 101 questions and David G. is kind enough to answer them all about his famous, or shall we say infamous, employers. What WAS working for each like, what was the interview process like, what is the most shocking thing he saw and heard? Oh my, thank you David G. for indulging us. These two Davids met, where else, at a Countess & Friends Cabaret - do we see a pattern here? They reconnected at this season's anti bullying event that was filmed for RHONY. What was that event like? Who ended up doing what off camera? David Squared are here to discuss all. Finally, the two Davids bond over Bravocon where Yontef attended as press on behalf of BTVR and Goldberg assisted Miss Zarin in the sales of her rugs. Assisting Jill also got David Goldberg backstage in the green room at Bravocon's Infamous Watch What Happens Live. Rinna, Gizelle, EJ, oh my. Jealous much - yes yes and yes. What a jam packed episode.
