In this solo episode of Latine ADHD, licensed psychologist Dr. Janice Castro talks about one of the hardest things to rebuild after years of shame or self-doubt, trusting yourself.

If you’ve ever promised you’d start earlier, be on time, or take a break and then didn’t? You’re not alone. Dr. Castro shares how these moments can chip away at self-confidence, especially for adults with ADHD, and how to start healing that inner trust through small, compassionate steps.

You’ll learn:
✨ Why shame can feel physically painful
✨ How to start rebuilding trust through micro-promises
✨ The “One Promise Rule” an ADHD-friendly way to keep commitments to yourself
✨ How self-compassion helps calm the inner critic

This episode is a gentle reminder: trust isn’t built on perfection, it’s built on kindness, one small promise at a time.
