Do you struggle to switch off… even when your body’s on the couch, but your brain’s running mental laps around your to-do list?
Yeah. Me too.
In this episode, we’re talking about rest—what it really looks like for ADHD brains (spoiler: it’s probably not what you think). If you’ve ever felt like you have to earn your rest, or you tie your self-worth to how much you get done, this conversation is for you.
I’m sharing why rest hasn’t come naturally for me, how I used to hustle for my worthiness (hello, burnout), and what changed when I finally gave myself permission to slow down.
If your brain needs a reminder that rest is fuel, not failure, this episode’s your permission slip.
And if you need a little joy back in your life? This might help with that, too.
