2. How Do We Release Our Internal ADHD Pressure and Expectations?10.11.2025 (00:19:53)

   In this episode of More Yourself, I'm sharing a clip from a recent SEED Talk I presented back in July, focusing on how we can work with our uniquely wonderful ADHD brains, rather than against them. Understanding our ADHD brain is a key element of healing, but we don't have to face this as though it is something new. We have always been neurodivergent, but we may not have had the language or awareness to understand it before. The modern world asks us to constantly perform, engage in challenging environments and overcompensate to fit in, but this can be exhausting. When we begin to find self-compassion, honour our unique experiences, we can tune into our bodies and take small, intentional steps toward self-care, self-regulation, and authenticity. In turn, self-trust releases the need for external validation and reclaims a life that feels more aligned, more spacious, and more true to who we are.My new book, The ADHD Women's Wellbeing Toolkit, is now available, grab your copy here!What I discuss:Some of the deepest pressures we carry come from within, shaped by internalised expectations and perfectionism.How to better understand your personal bandwidth by noticing the people, environments, and choices that either energise or deplete you.How to break intergenerational cycles of burnout, overwhelm and people pleasing through creating a supportive environment.Understanding your priorities and asking yourself what you want to let go of.How creativity, breathwork, and other self-regulation tools can gently support you through anxiety and depression.The healing power of self-advocacy, and what can happen when you give yourself full permission to rest, take up space, and just be.Timestamps:00:05 - The Recognition of Neurodiversity01:51 - Understanding Our Neurodivergent Experiences06:10 - Understanding Burnout and Setting Boundaries09:09 - Embracing Change and Letting Go14:12 - The Importance of Self-Regulation and Asking for Help15:19 - The Power of Self-Acceptance and PermissionThe More Yourself Community doors are now open!More Yourself is a compassionate space for late-diagnosed ADHD women to connect, reflect, and come home to who they really are.

5. Creating Meaningful Connections: How ADHD Awareness Can Transform Your Life27.10.2025 (00:14:22)

   In this episode of More Yourself, I wanted to share a clip from a recent ADHD Women's Wellbeing live session that explored the concept of generativity versus stagnation —a theme that is very prevalent among late-diagnosed ADHD women.This concept, rooted in Erik Erikson’s psychosocial development theory, invites us to reflect on how we create meaning and contribute to our own lives and to others as we move through the different stages of adulthood. For those of us who received a diagnosis later in life, this understanding can be transformative. It reminds us that our diagnosis isn’t the end, it’s the beginning of a new chapter.My new book, The ADHD Women's Wellbeing Toolkit, is now available, grab your copy here!What I discuss:Erikson’s 8 stages of psychosocial development viewed through a neurodivergent lens.The impact of unconscious masking on ADHD traits and energy levels.The concept of generativity vs. stagnation for late-diagnosed ADHD women.Seeing a late diagnosis as a new chapter for authenticity and evolution.The role of meaningful connection in women's reconnection with their identity post-diagnosis.The power of embracing change in midlife and beyond.Timestamps00:33 – Understanding ADHD and Psychosocial Development03:30 – Overview of Erikson’s 8 Stages of Psychosocial Development05:26 – Life Stages Through a Neurodivergent Lens07:17 – Generativity vs. Stagnation Explained07:54 – Generativity as a New Chapter of Potential09:40 – Embracing Change and Authenticity12:16 – Closing Reflections and Personal GrowthJoin the More Yourself Community - the doors are now open!More Yourself is a compassionate space for late-diagnosed ADHD women to connect, reflect, and come home to who they really are.
