ADHD and feeling overwhelmed, over stimulated and burnout seem to go hand in hand. A lot of us operate under the ‘go, go, go’ type of cadence with our two modes being full throttle or absolutely nothing. This inevitably leaves a lot of us feeling as though we can never get it together, we’re mentally exhausted all of the time and as though everyone around us is sick of our franticness. Joining the podcast today is certified ADHD therapist, who also has ADHD Jenna Free. Jenna refers to the frantic behaviours mentioned above as dysregulation. 

Jenna taught me a whole new way to think about managing my ADHD. Her work focuses on regulation and learning to bring ourselves back to a regulated state. 

This episode is for anyone who feels like:
They are frantically trying to keep up with a to-do list that never ends
Your life feels overwhelming while you also feel as though you’re barely getting anything done
There is never enough time in the day and you’re always racing against the clock
You ricochet between frantically running around panicking and crashing, zoned out and in a paralysis



We speak about:
Jenna’s experience of being diagnosed later in life and the cross over with postnatal depression
A lot of ‘lifestyle’ treatments for ADHD are bandaids and don’t address the underlying cause of burnout
Consistently being distracted by tasks while you are meant to be doing a task
Identifying dysregulation and being in reaction mode
Seeing time as a ‘vertical’ all stacked right in front of us rather than ‘horizontal’ in a linear way
How the internal work softens us so we aren’t in survival mode so that we can implement some strategies
