Reframing Balance with ADHD
Manage episode 420542043 series 2616570
In this episode, Ash and Cam discuss the challenges of achieving balance, particularly for those with ADHD. Ash shares a client's struggle to balance work and personal commitments during a stressful period. They explore the concept of "rebalancing" instead of striving for perfect balance, emphasizing flexibility and managing expectations.
They discuss how individuals with ADHD can create buy-in of some ideal state like balance but not consider what balance can mean for them specifically. This is related to chasing unrealistic expectations - very much an ADHD thing. Ash shares personal experiences of managing overwhelm by focusing on realistic goals and small wins. They conclude that progress is not linear and it's important to prioritize and adapt to changing needs.
