    Part 1: When Your Own Brain Distracts You
    2025/10/08

    Most ADHD women think distraction means pings, notifications, or people interrupting.

    But what if the biggest distractions aren’t outside of you at all?

    In this episode of The Self-Loved ADHD Woman Way Podcast, we're pulling back the curtain on the invisible distractions happening inside your own mind — the kind that steal your time, drain your energy, and erode your confidence without you even realizing it.

    This isn’t about blaming yourself. It’s about finally naming what’s going on so you can understand why it feels so relentless — and why it’s not your fault.

    ✨ Next week: Part 2 of this mini-series — How to Reclaim Focus from ADHD’s Internal Distractions. we'll explore practical strategies, nervous system regulation tools, and lived examples to help you work with your brain instead of against it.

    If you’ve ever wondered why your thoughts pull you away when you need to focus most, this is your invitation to listen in. Clarity alone can change everything.

  • Stuck in People Pleasing… Again

    Stuck in People Pleasing… Again
    2025/10/01

    I thought I was done with people pleasing. I’d built boundaries, learned to say no, and told myself I was free from it. But when I moved back to Minnesota—and started building my second business—it snuck back in.

    I found myself undercharging, over-delivering, and slipping back into perfectionism. The result? Burnout, loneliness, and even physical symptoms like poor sleep, digestive issues, and constant tension in my body.

    In this episode of The Self-Loved ADHD Woman Way, I share:

    • How people pleasing shows up in subtle ways for ADHD women
    • Why perfectionism is often tied to proving our worth
    • The physical and emotional cost of staying stuck in these patterns
    • How I’m working my way out of it—and how you can too

    If you’ve ever felt like you should be “over” people pleasing, only to find yourself back in the same patterns, this episode will help you recognize you’re not alone—and there’s a way forward.

    🎧 Be sure to listen!
