Neural pathways in slow motion: your ADHD challenges explained with behavioural scientist Liliya Engelke (Part 2)

[PART 2 of Interview]   Liliya Engelke (M.S. CHWC) is an ADHD coach and behavioural scientist who was diagnosed with ADHD as an adult. In this two-part conversation we examine the neurobiology and chemistry of the ADHD brain. Lilly talks about: • the cascade of overwhelm and the shame spiral behind ADHD / ADD paralysis & doom scrolling on the couch • the link between dopamine and motivation • the genius ‘spoon analogy’ that explains ADHD executive dysfunction • “white coat syndrome” and the diagnosis process • why neurodivergents can avoid support after being gaslit by medical professionals • how a behavioural coach can help you modify your ADHD / ADD behaviours, create systems to support you and empower you to find your own solutions long term • why Lilly loves our Future ADHD planner so much and recommends to her clients And make sure you check out Part 1 for the rest of this value-packed conversation.
