Your routine fell apart again. Travel, sickness, late night, busy week - and now you feel like a failure. Here’s the truth: ADHD routines WILL break. That’s not the problem. The problem? You don’t have a reentry plan. Instead of asking “How do I never break my routine?” ask “How do I get back to a

It’s 3pm. You’re starving. But deciding what to eat feels impossible. This is ADHD executive dysfunction around food - and it’s why I created a 3-tier energy system for feeding myself aka ADHD food system: Low energy: grab and eat (granola bars, yogurt, hummus) Medium energy: heat + fresh (frozen

Before I got an ADHD diagnosis, I feel like I was failing at a game that I don’t even know what the rules actually are. Getting a diagnosis is not an easy way out. #ADHD #Neurodiversity #RoutineStruggles #ADHDReality #ADHDlife #PersistenceOverConsistency #ChallengesOfADHD #ADHDawareness

Some days brushing your teeth feels impossible. And you still have to show up as an adult somehow 🪫 Here’s what I learned: ADHD brains have natural energy peaks and valleys. The solution isn’t pushing through—it’s designing completely different routines for your 10% battery days. Food. Movement.

Who signed up for all these plans? Oh right... high-energy me did ? For years, I planned like I’d show up as my peak-energy self every single day. Spoiler: that version of me doesn’t exist 24/7. The game-changer? Planning for my actual reality, not my ideal reality. Ready to stop over-planning and

Incompetent Dork Stuck in the 7th-Grade Takes Time Away From Messing Up Twitter to Mess Up the US Government.

Many of my US friends say that they are coping by not turning on the news. I understand it and don't blame them but I guess this is also how descent into authoritarianism works - most people, understandably, just concentrating on getting by in their lives and in their local community.

ARE YOU PAYING ATTENTION, YET?! 🤚 And so, the silencing of the left-wing media begins with a transition to state-run media outlets…👇 The. Fourth. Estate. Is. Officially. Dead. ✨

It would be fantastic if major federal institutions would acknowledge that the executive branch cannot legally unilaterally cancel or redistribute congressionally appropriated funding on ideological grounds and thus they have no legal obligation to comply with such directives

And even worse Elon who was not elected but seems to have the ultimate power after buying himself the WH seat is very heavily involved in this. He has access to U.S. financial and other systems that contain sensitive info. Who is this going to be sold to?

U.S. agencies are being bulldozed tonight and media is not covering this dangerous authoritarian shit. I understand there was another plane crash and am praying for everyone but please make time for the overthrow of our institutions

Each time I have sat down to write something since the election, I am bothered by this recurring phrase that I simply cannot get out of my head. So, I am going to just say it out loud: we are on our own. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/we-a...

If you haven’t already started, flood your representatives with phone calls and emails asking for the immediate REMOVAL of Elon MUSK from having ANY ACCESS to the inner workings of our government. There is a hostile takeover actively happening in our country and we’re all watching it happen.

If you’re struggling with difficult emotions around the state of the world, you aren’t alone. Here I share some thoughts & a practice that’s supporting me so much right now. You don’t need to have any experience with meditation or mindfulness to benefit; just a little time and some curiosity. ❤️‍🩹🙏

Spread the word! Together we will resist!

Ask your representative what exactly is their plan to handle Elon Musk's take over of Federal Agency

A former Secretary of Labor has stated the so-called Federal "buy out" does not have legality and does not have funds robertreich.substack.com/p/some-free-...

If you need a catch-up on exactly what has happened to the Federal workforce, this Reddit thread is a good summary www.reddit.com/r/fednews/co...

Let your representatives know Federal government employs 30% of veterans www.opm.gov/fedshirevets...

Here is the Current Federal Civilian Employment by State and Congressional District, updated Dec, 2024 Let your representatives know Federal government employ a lot of people in almost every state ( you can find your state-specific information in this pdf) crsreports.congress.gov/product/pdf/...

Here is an app that can make contacting your representatives easier apps.apple.com/us/app/5-cal...

Elon Musk has taken over OPM (arguably the most influential Federal agency, managing the entire Executive branch on behalf of the President), GSA (managing all Federal buildings), and the U.S. Treasury Office. This is a coup. Call/Email your representatives today 🧵 www.wired.com/story/elon-m...

#ADHD I have created my dopamine menu on whiteboards * 3 copies, one by my work computer, one by the living room TV, one in the kitchen. Place your dopamine menu right where you are most likely to get stuck in ‘let me just browse online a bit more/watch one more episode mode’

#ADHD #ADHDAsian The biggest paradigm shift that happened in 2024 for me is that We are nature. Nature has rhythms and cycles, and so do we, which is a lot more obvious for ADHD folks. That gives me a lot more acceptance. Work with your rhythms, not against them 🌳🌊

I cannot wait for you to hear this episode of #ADHD Gathering featuring @adhdatwork Meghan talks about importance of understanding one’s strengths and weaknesses via executive functioning assessments, emphasizes the need for realistic workplace accommodations 🧵

In 2 weeks, I am going to the #CHADD #ADHD conference. I am presenting on Thursday afternoon about how to make meditation more ADHD-friendly! Come hang out & comment down below if you are coming so we can plan for a meetup!

New video on why #ADHD folks overwork and what actually makes us happy according to psychology! youtu.be/CVGh_cJj_Q4?...

Your #ADHD reminder today for folks who just experienced the ending of daylight saving time, it takes time for our body to adjust to a new time zone. It is okay if this transition takes a while. It is okay if you are feeling tired today (that's how I am feeling)

The #ADHD tendency to feel bored the moment we do not feel overwhelmed

The modern capitalist society rewards overworking and overconsumption (of material goods, information, content etc). Our #ADHD brains already like binging on things. No wonder our #ADHD brains have such a hard time finding healthy ways to get our dopamine.

Have you ever wondered why your plan fails every single time for your #ADHD brain? Today I am spilling all the insights I have gathered from helping my ADHD coaching clients establish plans that work for them and achieve their goals in this video youtu.be/UdU9ahrQisQ?...

On the last day of #ADHDAwarenessMonth, I am sharing the interview I did with Lindsay Guentzel. We talked about the myth of being an adult, what helped after my ADHD diagnosis, and where I find my joy these days. lnkd.in/eyTrUgbW If you have 40 minutes, give it a listen, let me know your thoughts

One surprising benefit of doing even a tiny little bit of meal prep on Sunday: it warms up my executive function muscle so my #ADHD brain does not totally draw a blank on Mondays.

I searched 'adhd flourishing' in google scholar and found 2 papers on this topic. WHY?!! This makes me want to create a podcast around #ADHD and how we might create conditions to flourish. This is not to negate the hardships in our lives but to point to possibilities.

Another day, another random white dude comments #ADHD is superpower. No it is NOT. Living in a society that is not built around our neurotype is exhausting to say the least. Access to diagnosis, treatment and support are so dependent on race and class. #ADHD can be a disability.

Coming to terms with low energy days and planning for them has been a game-changer for me.

This could be life-altering

More youtube videos are coming soon! My #ADHD brain does not handle transition very well, so every time I take the time to put on mascara, I am like okay let me just batch-film 3 videos.

#ADHD folks can easily overwork ourselves at any job because - we do not like to feel incompetent - we do not want to be perceived by others as lazy - we do not want to be rejected - we have absolutely no clue what a 'regular' level of productivity looks like
