Ep 61My ADHD insights on prioritising time out, rest and our hormones for better mental wellbeing

E

Welcome back to a new series of The ADHD Women's Wellbeing Podcast. In this intro solo episode before the official start of the series on Thursday, I wanted to share my insights from taking some time out.With ADHD, we can find it difficult to stop, slow down, pause, rest and breathe.Very often, we only stop when an external factor stops us. Maybe that’s an injury, illness, ill family member, work crisis or even a pandemic!Our ADHD nervous system has been fine-tuned to keep running on high alert, despite feeling fraught and exhausted most of the time.But with awareness of ADHD comes power. Power to prevent. Power to see what we haven’t been able to understand before. Burnout cycles we thought were because we couldn’t keep up. Always more to do, be, produce, create and show. Never enough. Never on top of things. I must keep doing more. And then what? We break down, we collapse and we burn out and we’re no good to anyone. And then the cycle of shame happens.I took a break and for the first time, I didn’t feel guilty. I knew I deserved this break. I was worthy of relaxing and restoring. I knew that this was in the best interest of everyone around me, including my clients, family and friends. It was needed and it was wonderful. I felt rejuvenated and re-energised—no guilt or fear of judgement.In this solo episode (guest episode returning on Thursday) I talk about how to find a break if you can’t escape for a few days. I call them micro pauses that we can all do and become more intentional about every day. I am actively retraining myself to find more time to breathe, pause and recalibrate every day so I can show up for my family and my work - both of which are hugely important to me. Not only this, but also for my mental health, mood regulation, anxiety, nervous system and physical health (my back). I’m finally ready to prioritise this and invite you to do the same.I also talk about ADHD, women's health and hormones and will be talking about this more in the next few months. Watch this space for a new project that I'm working on.Kate Moryoussef is a women’s ADHD Lifestyle & Wellbeing coach and EFT practitioner helping overwhelmed yet unfulfilled ADHD women find more calm, balance, energy, health, compassion, creativity and clarity in their lives. Join Kate's ADHD Women's Wellbeing Collective here.Have a look at some of Kate's free resources here.Follow the podcast on Instagram hereFollow Kate on Instagram hereHave a read of Kate’s articles in ADDitude magazine hereMentioned in this episode:Gratitude link

Ep 57Activating the cerebellum to increase our mental capacity

E

Ep 41Making life work for you after an ADHD diagnosis

E

"Don't try to fit into the world; make the world fit into you."This week’s guest is Sarah Templeton, author of the hit book ‘How NOT to Murder Your ADHD Kid – Instead Learn to be Your Child’s Own ADHD Coach’ released in 2021. She realised the key to stopping ADHD adolescents from becoming homeless, unemployed, on drugs and in prison was to educate the parents.  If parents could recognise their kids getting into these sorts of issues very early on and change their child’s life path by pursuing an early diagnosis, medication and managing their ADHD properly from the start, the result would mean the prisons, homeless hostels and rehabs would NOT be packed to the rafters with ADHD. Sarah is a vocal advocate for change and believes The ADHD Act is long overdue. She is on the APPG for ADHD at the Houses of Parliament and has vowed to be the voice for the tens of thousands of young offenders and adult offenders with undiagnosed ADHD – who cannot get their voices heard within the prison system. Yet without the correct ADHD diagnosis and medication, their life is destined to be one spent persistently in and out of prison.During this episode, Kate and Sarah speak about:ADHD within the prison systemHarnessing ADHD to re-focus your lifeWhy you may not recognize your amazing skills and abilities with ADHDWomen coping with an ADHD diagnosisThe relief after getting a diagnosis The price of ignoring our ADHDCriticism and the impact that has on us historicallyLeaning into our strengths and listening to the positives Making the world work for you The pressure on un-diagnosed ADHD women to cope Using your dopamine-seeking ADHD brain for goodSarah's plans for the ADHD Act in the prison system and policeYou can connect with Sarah via her websites www.sarahtempleton.org.uk and www.headstuffadhdtherapy.co.uk. If you enjoy the podcast, why not join Kate's ADHD Women's Wellbeing Collective, where you get access to monthly live workshops, exclusive audio content and new resources specifically for the membership?

S1 Ep 28Advocating for your neurodiversity in the workplace

E

"Embracing and working with our strengths teaches us to thrive with ADHD."Speaking about an autism or ADHD diagnosis within the workplace can feel daunting, exposing and scary. However, when we advocate for ourselves within our work setting, we are enabling the support, care and accommodations we deserve. Working with - and no longer - against our brains means we can excel more in our careers without the burnout and exhaustion that typically comes with neurodiversity. Often the way we work can look different to others, but that doesn't mean it's less effective. The more we talk about this and allow different options to be implemented, the healthier, happier and more productive we feel within our work environment. This week’s guest, Samantha Hiew is the Director of ADHD Girls, a company founded with a social mission to empower girls and women with ADHD through effective advocacy, education and specialists’ insights.With a background in healthcare communications and a PhD in Cancer Research, Samantha is passionate about helping individuals with ADHD access employment and training organisations to provide the support they need to thrive in their circumstances, thereby increasing happiness and wellbeing and improving productivity.During this episode of The ADHD Women's Wellbeing Podcast, Kate and Samantha spoke about: Feeling alone after an ADHD diagnosis The power of anecdotal experiencesThe benefits of being around others like you and community  Sam's autism diagnosis and her surpriseADHD and Autism often going hand in handNeeding to have a passion, fulfilment to stave off depressionSam's mission with ADHD diagnosisRecognition Responsive Euphoria and what it is and looks like Navigating ADHD and Neurodiveristy in the workplaceHow employers can boost their ADHD employee's confidence Advocating for yourself in the workplaceEmbracing our strengths and interests to thrive with ADHDYou can connect with Samantha via adhdgirls.co.uk or on social media via Instagram, LinkedIn and Twitter, @adhd_girlsThanks to our sponsor, Brain.
