  ADHD Decision Fatigue: How to Protect Your Energy

  Aug 18, 202619 minS4

  ADHD decision fatigue can turn a simple choice, like what to eat for lunch, into something your brain cannot handle. By 10 a.m., ADHD women have already made thousands of decisions about breakfast, clothes, and email, so their brains can start to shut down by lunchtime. Decision fatigue is not just an end of day problem, it is a constant companion. This episode looks at decision fatigue through the ADHD lens: why it hits sooner and harder, what helps, and how to recognize when you need to stop and rest. In this episode: ➜ Why ADHD brains reach decision-making capacity faster than neurotypical brains (executive function, working memory, perfectionism, and time blindness all play a part) ➜ Practical ways to reduce the number of decisions you make each day, from default options and batching to decision trees and timeboxing ➜ How to recognize your early warning signs of decision fatigue and build a recovery plan for when it hits ─────────── Get weekly ADHD insights delivered to your inbox: Jorie's Substack and Newsletters ─────────── RATE & REVIEW If this episode resonated, please follow the show & leave a review here: https://ratethispodcast.com/adhdand ─────────── ABOUT THE PODCAST ADHD &... with Jorie Houlihan is a podcast for women with ADHD who are tired of trying harder and ready to understand how their brain works.

  Aug 11, 202646 min

  Ever start a new health plan with big intentions and quit by day three? Functional medicine health coach Rebecca Glick joins me to talk about why small, doable changes create more lasting results than an all-or-nothing overhaul, and why your nervous system might be the missing piece in feeling like yourself again. In this episode: ➜ Why doing something in a "quarter-assed" way is often what makes a health change stick ➜ The real reason blood sugar and nervous system regulation affect your energy, focus, and sleep, even if you are not diabetic ➜ How to find the deeper why behind a health goal so it is something you can sustain, not something you white-knuckle ─────────── CONNECT WITH REBECCA: Website: https://www.nefeshliving.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nefeshliving/ ─────────── Get weekly ADHD insights delivered to your inbox: Jorie's Substack and Newsletters: Subscribe: https://tinyurl.com/33z4a5j5 ─────────── RATE & REVIEW If this episode resonated, please follow the show and leave a review here: Rate the show: https://ratethispodcast.com/adhdand ─────────── ABOUT THE PODCAST ADHD &... with Jorie Houlihan is a podcast for women with ADHD who are tired of trying harder and ready to understand how their brain works.

  ADHD &... Body Doubling: How to Borrow Someone Else's Focus

  Aug 4, 202614 min

  Body doubling sounds like something out of a psychology textbook, but if you've ever gotten more done because a friend sat nearby with her own laptop, you've already been doing it. In this episode, Jorie breaks down what body doubling really means for an ADHD brain: simply having another person present while you work, with no help or attention required from them, and why that presence alone can turn an overwhelming task into a manageable one. Needing this kind of support isn't a sign you can't work alone. It's a sign you understand your brain and know how to work with it, the same way glasses help someone see more clearly. In this episode: ➜ What body doubling is and why it works so well for an ADHD brain ➜ Practical ways to build it into your day, from virtual coworking to a busy coffee shop ➜ How to find your ideal body doubling match and set it up so it works for you, not against you ─────────── Get weekly ADHD insights delivered to your inbox: Jorie's Substack and Newsletter: https://tinyurl.com/33z4a5j5 ─────────── RATE & REVIEW: If this episode resonated, please follow the show & leave a review here: https://ratethispodcast.com/adhdand ABOUT THE PODCAST ADHD &... with Jorie Houlihan is a podcast for women with ADHD who are tired of trying harder and ready to understand how their brain works.

  When Achievement Hides ADHD | April Garcia

  Jul 28, 20261h 3m

  I laughed so much during this interview and I know you will too. While training to become an occupational therapist, April Garcia did an entire school project on ADHD, building a strategy for kids who couldn't get ready for school on time no matter how hard they tried. Nine years later, she found out she had ADHD herself, and almost nobody around her was surprised...except for April herself. April is the author of The Room to Be Brave, a memoir that uses the metaphor of rooms in a house to walk through the parts of her past that shaped her. In this conversation, we talk about what happens when achievement becomes the way you hide the mess underneath, why doctors so often dismiss ADHD in women who look like they have it together on paper, and how she got sober and got diagnosed within ten days of each other. We also get into emotional dysregulation, the apology she owed her kids, and how humor has carried her family through some genuinely hard years, including her mother's decades-long illness. If nobody, including you, saw your ADHD coming, this episode will help you make sense of it. In this episode: ➜ Why achievement can hide ADHD, even from someone who studied it professionally for years ➜ Why doctors so often dismiss ADHD in women who "have it together" on the outside ➜ How April found her way from shame to grace, with a lot of humor along the way ─────────── CONNECT WITH APRIL: Website: aprildaygarcia.com Instagram & Facebook: @AprilDayGarcia Book: The Room to Be Brave, available on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and wherever books are sold ─────────── Get weekly ADHD insights delivered to your inbox: Jorie's Substack and Newsletters: https://tinyurl.com/33z4a5j5 ─────────── RATE & REVIEW: If this episode resonated, please follow the show & leave a review here: https://ratethispodcast.com/adhdand ABOUT THE PODCAST ADHD &... with Jorie Houlihan is a podcast for women with ADHD who are tired of trying harder - and ready to understand how their brain works.

Mindy has spent years helping clients declutter, purge, and build systems that hold up in real life.

In this episode: ➜ Why there is no one-size-fits-all system, and why perfectionism gets in the way of real progress ➜ How Mindy blends empathy with accountability so clients feel supported and safe ➜ Where to start so your first step feels doable and manageable ───────────────────────────── CONNECT WITH MINDY: Website: https://superorganizedspaces.com ───────────────────────────── Ready to work on this with someone who gets it?
