Why You Can't "Push Through" ADHD Overwhelm (and What to Do Instead)
Notes de l’épisode
If overwhelm makes you want to shut down, hide, procrastinate—or somehow try to do everything at once—this episode is for you.
Kristen breaks down why ADHD overwhelm isn’t simply a productivity problem and why “trying harder” or finally getting caught up usually doesn’t create the relief we’re looking for.
You’ll learn how ADHD impacts your capacity, executive functioning, emotional regulation, and nervous system—and why all of that can make everyday life feel like 10 things are screaming at you at the same volume.
Kristen also introduces the first step of her STOP Method: See What’s Happening. Instead of immediately trying to fix your overwhelm, you’ll learn how to recognize what’s happening without piling on shame, judgment, or blame.
See it. Don’t solve it.
