The Weekly Level Up Let's level up our ADHD lives a little, shall we? Are you exhausted all day ... only to find yourself wide awake the second your head hits the pillow at night? And your brain? Oh, it’s fired up and ready to rock. Thoughts start racing. Energy spikes out of nowhere. You remember you never responded to that email from two weeks ago and also, did you remember to lock the front door? And why do you have "Two Tickets to Paradise" stuck in your head? If that sounds familiar,...

The Weekly Level Up Let's level up our ADHD lives a little, shall we? When life ramps up and capacity runs low, we can’t do it all — and sometimes, things we love take a backseat. That’s what happened to me for the past month or so. Maybe you can relate? Here’s what went down: ☀️ Summer showed up, school ended, and with it went all the structure my brain relies on. 👀 My eyeballs are still in prism-glasses rehab — making extended screen time feel like 73 different flavors of yuck. 🧠 And life...

The Weekly Level Up Let's level up our ADHD lives a little, shall we? I recently sat down with Amy Stone on The Art of Imperfect Adulting to talk about what it’s like to discover you have ADHD as an adult — and how that diagnosis connected so many dots I didn’t even know were related. We covered a lot, including: 🧩Putting the pieces together: How the challenges my oldest kiddo faced in school led me to discover my own ADHD at the age of 39. 🌀 Getting Diagnosed: The profound impact that...

The Weekly Level Up Let's level up our ADHD lives a little, shall we? I’ve been dreaming about this for two years — and now it’s finally happening. For the last few weeks, I’ve been quietly building something that ADHDers like us have needed for a long time: a way to get real support, strategies, and community without having to fight our brains (or a damn social media algorithm) to do it. It’s called The ADHD Level Up Lab, and it’s almost ready. This is an affordable, ADHD-friendly membership...

The Weekly Level Up Let's level up our ADHD lives a little, shall we? One of the most common questions I get is: “So … what is ADHD coaching, exactly?” And sure, I’ve got the FAQ-style answer on my website. (You can read it here, if you’re the practical type.) But the real answer? The one that matters most to me personally? It’s this: ADHD coaching is about finally being able to see yourself. Not the mask you’ve had to wear to get through the day. Not the mess or the missed deadlines or the...

Have you ever lost your phone … while talking on it? Searched high and low for your sunglasses ... but they were on your head? Sworn you put your meds somewhere safe but now they’ve entered the Bermuda Triangle of ADHD object disappearance? Same. This week’s episode of ADHD Adult(ish) is all about why we lose stuff constantly — and no, it’s not because we’re flaky and irresponsible.

How many times today have you told yourself you should be doing something? “I should answer that email.”“I should clean the kitchen.”“I should be more productive, organized, on top of my life, [insert unrealistic expectation here]...” Yeah. Been there. Like, yesterday. And also 10 minutes ago. And as I was writing this sentence. Here’s the thing no one tells you: For ADHD brains, “should” isn’t just unhelpful — it’s often just bullshit. It comes loaded with guilt, pressure, and the idea that...

Most of us with ADHD don’t exactly thrive on rigid routines. (Unless you count the daily ritual of forgetting what you walked into the room for. In that case — we’re all nailing it. 👏) But what if there were a few simple, ADHD-friendly rituals that actually helped you stay focused, get stuff done, and not feel like a frazzled mess by 3pm? That’s exactly what this week’s podcast episode is all about. 🎧 Take Control of Your Day: 3 Rituals Every ADHDer Needs (with Alan P. Brown) I sat down with...

Ever been told to “just listen to your body” — but your brain is too busy screaming about a sock seam, a cringey memory from 7th grade, and the fact that if you stop working now, you’ll never remember what you were doing? Yeah, same. For people with ADHD, body signals aren’t always reliable — or, you know, noticeable in real-time. Our brains either mute them, overload us with them, or scramble them completely (hello, thinking you’re starving when you’re actually just anxious). Add in...

Be honest — did you open this email immediately or let it sit in your inbox while you scrolled TikTok, stared at a wall, or did literally anything else? No judgment. I've done it a million times. Procrastination is practically an Olympic sport when you have ADHD. But here’s a fun fact: procrastination isn’t about being lazy or bad at time management (despite what the internet trolls might say). Science says it’s often an emotional regulation problem. We don’t avoid tasks because we’re...
