ADHD Didn’t Ruin My Life — Not Understanding It Did
In this episode, I’m opening up about something deeply personal that I’m still actively learning and integrating: my late diagnosis with ADHD and the clarity, grief, and healing that came with finally understanding how my brain works.
For most of my life, I thought something was wrong with me, that I was lazy, inconsistent, emotional, overwhelmed, or just not living up to my potential. I constantly felt like I was falling behind, struggling with things that seemed easy for everyone else, and masking internal chaos that no one could see. But discovering that I’m neurodivergent helped everything click into place, and for the first time in my life, I feel compassion for myself instead of shame.
I’m sharing my real experience with:
✨ Internal chaos and time blindness
✨ Hyperfixation, rumination, and emotional overwhelm
✨ Rejection sensitivity dysphoria (RSD) & attachment patterns
✨ Masking, perfectionism, and people pleasing
✨ Eating the same foods, routines, and sensory needs
✨ Meditation, nervous system regulation, & healing my autoimmune disease
✨ How ADHD shaped my relationships, self-worth, and identity
✨ Why understanding yourself changes everything
And most importantly:
How ADHD became my superpower instead of something that held me back.
If you’ve ever felt misunderstood, overwhelmed, “too much,” or like you’re not reaching your potential, you are not broken. You are not lazy. Your brain is simply wired differently, and once you have the tools and support you deserve, you become unstoppable.
