Is it possible to build lasting, sustainable habits with an ADHD brain? What does ‘work with your brain, not against it’ actually look like in practice? And crucially, how can that help you live and work better? Oh, and what on earth does a smorgasbord have to do with ADHD!?

I answer all these questions and lots more in this short, snappy but powerful episode designed to help you put self-compassion into action and understand what really works for you (and what doesn’t!) We dive into:

• The importance of understanding that ADHD brains are interest-based rather than importance-based 
• Why ‘’hacking your brain’ beating yourself up and/or using brute force to get yourself to do things is  not the only way - and actually let’s face it, it doesn’t feel good either
• Why your habits can fail, what actually does motivate your brain and why understanding ADHD brains are interest-based rather than importance-based is crucial to habit-forming
• My PANIC acronym  (Pressure, Accountability, Novelty, Interest, Competition) for what motivates ADHD brains, with practical examples of how to use these elements to your advantage 
• The power of the "smorgasbord" approach, which helps you identify multiple methods to achieve a single outcome, liberating you from your current narrative around ‘consistency’ and freeing you up to create deeply personalised approaches to life and business that feel easier to achieve
• How to experiment with different methods and options to reach the same goal, track what works, and avoid self-judgment and self-criticism along the way

If you are still beating yourself with the ‘consistency’ stick and telling yourself ‘I just can’t stick to anything’, this episode is for you my friend!
