In this episode of Becoming That Girl, Taylor opens up about the realities of living with ADHD as a Black woman navigating work, life, and faith. From impulsive spending and time blindness to the constant cycle of hyperfixation and burnout, she shares her raw, unfiltered journey of what ADHD really looks like beyond the “cute trend” social media makes it out to be.
Taylor reflects on how she first realized she might have ADHD, the struggles she faces in corporate life, and how tools like Notion, books like Women with ADHD, and her faith help her manage day-to-day challenges. She also breaks down common ADHD symptoms—including lack of focus, overtalking, impulsivity, and organizational struggles—while encouraging listeners to give themselves grace instead of labeling themselves “lazy.”
