So I'm just interrupting today's episode to let you know
0:02
about a brand new live workshop that I've got
0:04
coming up on the 24th of May at 1pm. And
0:09
this workshop is all about reducing
0:11
your ADHD overwhelm in family life
0:13
and discovering and welcoming in more
0:15
calm and regulation. Now I
0:17
want to let you know that I don't
0:20
have all the answers, but it's something that
0:22
I deal with on a daily basis. And
0:24
I've discovered over the years of understanding my
0:26
own ADHD and coupled with all my coaching
0:29
and talking to my experts on the
0:31
podcast, as well as all my hundreds of
0:33
coaching clients, that there is a
0:35
way of living without feeling in this sort
0:37
of default state of feeling like you're drowning,
0:40
that you're stressed all the time. And
0:43
juggling family life alongside an ADHD
0:45
brain can feel overwhelming at best
0:48
and debilitating at worst. And
0:50
life is happening at the moment at
0:52
breakneck speed. We are all struggling to
0:55
feel balanced, like we're keeping up. And
0:57
so I wanted to share with you six steps
1:00
that I know have worked for me and
1:02
six steps I often talk about to many
1:04
of my private coaching clients. I wanted to
1:06
share this in a
1:08
group live workshop. So

1:13

1:44
piling up on top of you, that you

2:41
to say. Now the on
2:44
his shoes Powerhouse Source Nature and
2:46
she has really helped and so
2:48
many people access more accommodations and
2:50
systems and Compassion supports with in
2:53
the workplace. And she's previously worked
2:55
in mental health and disability dogs
2:57
and she's now sets up a
2:59
D H D Works empowers many
3:01
people to learn how to make.
3:04
A D H D works for them.
3:06
She does so many different things with
3:08
regards to sort. Of advocates in seats
3:10
and people to courses and talks and
3:12
take Chang and she's also written a
3:14
some plastic go with a tasty and
3:16
eight to that. So let's listen to
3:18
what's beyond that said to me on
3:20
the podcast way back then think it was
3:23
about a year ago. And
3:26
it kind of male site. The tide is
3:28
shifting, the moods changing, people are becoming more
3:30
open. But then you
3:32
realize obsolete. In. A much
3:34
bigger corporate, you know, especially. When
3:37
it's deems it if you work in
3:40
law or accounts and say oh you
3:42
know, like really stayed corporate places. That.
3:45
Are interested in your a diverse you
3:47
not interested in support of making combinations
3:49
but what would you love to see
3:51
and your office in your work especially
3:53
because in the grumps you things you
3:55
not to during this along so what
3:58
have you seen our guests already. Changing
4:00
and what would you love to see the
4:02
next five years? And.
4:05
He has a big questions
4:07
and my everything that has.
4:11
Yeah. Because. Living There are so
4:13
many different elements. Of that. But.
4:16
Sick or Aca refocus on the black player
4:18
psych. Like my general
4:20
life and let the walk a day.
4:23
I just love like giving people choose
4:25
to empower themselves, examined against exploitation and
4:27
like that's a big part of will
4:29
have the advocacy with Eight it's the
4:31
and the me working as a ditch,
4:33
the coyotes and previously. Having worked
4:35
in law. Let. Meant a half
4:37
and disability law actually. And
4:40
makes think so angry on be was past
4:42
when i see them that like asking for
4:44
basic support and being told that now he
4:46
conti lot like ny know that was that
4:48
bad example to have a people. And stuff
4:50
like oh My. God this. One's.
4:53
A bang my head against the wall
4:55
because it's the law may and that
4:57
site. they don't have a choice like
4:59
and at st Empowering people to understand
5:01
that rights. And I think with Eight
5:03
it's in general. Like and
5:05
the Uk adults couldn't be diagnosed until
5:08
two thousand and eight. Say there are
5:10
so many adults. Now being diagnosed is
5:12
and. The. As huge number of
5:14
reasons for that but for. The.
5:17
Purposes of like. At. See
5:19
what that means For you know, like
5:21
the whole Johnny last very long been.
5:24
Like complex. second. The whole topic in
5:26
itself. But then once he actually do get
5:28
this much go diagnosis. or even if you
5:30
don't get that like once you understand the
5:32
canvas something that affects. Me and I'm experiencing
5:34
these challenges like what do you do
5:36
next to have that information like. What
5:39
does that mean? see A and I think
5:42
the people to understand the basic rights of
5:44
like. Paid. The shouldn't be happening
5:46
like you know, he shouldn't be being
5:48
discriminated against that walk or for me,
5:50
It was like hey, you shouldn't have to pay for
5:52
and Japan's months to. Access medication like that's
5:54
not normal Because I'm I'm looking.
5:57
for that and thinking but how and asked of
5:59
other people like How does everyone else
6:01
do this because like free in trans month is so
6:03
much money like that's not that can't
6:05
be like everybody's Experiences so that's kind of
6:07
what led me to write all the books
6:09
that I've written Because
6:11
there's no rule book rule
6:14
book. There's no experience out there of what
6:16
should be happening and
6:18
I think in terms of like companies and reasonable
6:21
adjustments and things I
6:23
think if they're in really tricky
6:25
places the companies because for example
6:27
in the UK the Equality Act
6:29
applies whether someone has got a diagnosis
6:31
of ADHD or anything else or not
6:33
like, you know You're not allowed to
6:35
be discriminated against Then
6:37
you've got people that are on huge
6:40
massive waiting lists and wanting help or
6:42
people that are being diagnosed ADHD
6:44
etc, but they again that no
6:46
one tells you like congratulations You've
6:49
been diagnosed with ADHD. Here's an entire
6:52
Analysis of your personality and all of the things
6:54
that could help you and now you're going to
6:56
be perfect Have a wonderful life.
6:59
You're kind of just dumped with this diagnosis
7:01
Yeah, no one tells you what that means then
7:03
you're left down a new rabbit hole trying to figure out
7:06
And along the way there are a lot of
7:09
people that will exploit you like and
7:11
it's really awful And that's why like I've
7:13
made courses and things for people but the
7:15
first one I needed to make was like
7:17
ADHD and understanding what that means for you
7:19
and like how to take
7:21
responsibility for it and like what
7:24
you can do in the way of like I
7:28
know being happier person or managing some
7:30
of the challenges before you go and
7:32
rush into your work and say hello
7:34
Who are my adjustments I would like
7:36
because guess what if they don't if
7:38
the support isn't there or they don't They
7:41
don't have the training which I think it's something like
7:43
77 percent of companies haven't given
7:45
their employees neurodiversity training
7:48
So chances are they probably have him like
7:51
you can actually really go down this
7:53
very stressful and unnecessary hole Of
7:56
like fighting for rights and not understanding
7:58
it and. Anyway,
8:01
Yeah, from the hundred number I
8:03
think that's. The. Biggest thing
8:05
that employs to do is have a
8:07
reasonable just Mints policy in place like
8:09
training. Say that at least because it's
8:11
impossible to expect them to train manager
8:14
for example, on every single. Possible.
8:16
Condition Outlier. Know how to handle up at
8:18
least if they've got a policy that explains like. This.
8:21
Is what I'm to do you if you
8:23
do experience like any kind of challenges to
8:26
do a powerful anything out like Tonka. This.
8:29
Is what you can do this as I
8:31
can talk this about law and the says
8:33
the kind of things that happen next and
8:35
these were the questions that we may I
8:37
ask. I'm and it will be an ongoing
8:39
supportive processes not here to like terrify you
8:42
make you think that we're going to fi
8:44
a like but given that reassurance being a
8:46
bit more human am training up the managers
8:48
and that process and an offering them support
8:50
when that happens. Because yeah and I think
8:53
say it's like education and both sides and
8:55
to springing a bit more like humanity and.
8:57
I think the vulnerability and to them
8:59
and general a proper my papa like.
9:01
Do that. Everyone's goodness. These things are both
9:04
the reader. Oh my god we the weather
9:06
conditions everybody business as the being a bit
9:08
more like. Supportive. And.
9:11
Listening to people Now I think you're
9:13
right a hundred percent and what I'm
9:15
kind of feeling is that when we
9:17
get a diagnosis and we have to
9:19
go into into a workplace that's going
9:21
to cause friction am because districts and
9:23
is going in and ask him to
9:25
the accommodations and asking for and changes
9:27
to be made on if we are
9:29
a people pleaser A we had we
9:31
know we suffer from Rs day as
9:33
gonna be a really big thing is
9:35
it must have into taking and if
9:37
wages process me a D C and
9:39
just understanding how is. Up and up
9:42
to date meant as to go in explain. Need
9:44
validation and not be questioned what you said.
9:47
This is written mean judgmental space. We want
9:49
to go in there and neither that person's
9:51
not gonna be like are you sure you
9:53
did not let you quite each day We'd
9:55
never slice it up before or date seems
9:57
have a problem sitting and you never fidgety.
10:00
You know these questions which made to
10:02
seem a little bit trivial or just
10:04
the basic questions are feeding directly back
10:06
in? see that? kind of like well
10:09
atleast or anything wrong with me or
10:11
should already be here and or the
10:13
impostor syndrome so we need. I think
10:16
if they're all going to be diverse
10:18
see expert specialists in I will anyone
10:20
that that representing that. Roles that.
10:22
Place in in the business they really
10:24
need to understand it from quite a
10:27
personal level I think and know from
10:29
the vulnerable level have up person's gonna
10:31
feel when they come in and asking
10:33
for those accommodations and is not set.
10:35
They're not coming in to make a
10:37
sauce and not coming in said to
10:39
be difference or to make a the
10:41
people sale like united gas five what
10:43
they're doing but outside need more say
10:45
is quite nuance. On to believe that
10:47
as taught hopefully as more awareness crazy
10:49
that people like you we reduce it's
10:51
great work it specially linked. Sense because
10:53
i do feel Instagram sick talk
10:55
and is already space as as
10:57
a level of understanding there is
11:00
spot get enough corporate ceiling where
11:02
it just still still. Clerics and if.
11:05
You're in a box on the he got com. For my
11:07
nipples got to be professional and when
11:09
all else talk about mental health or
11:11
so vulnerability and can't be successful and
11:13
have mental health problems because things asphalt
11:15
and shelves or vulnerabilities and pets didn't
11:18
We got sprayed bracer all down and
11:20
stuff rebuild it a little bit and
11:22
I guess you know what you're doing.
11:24
Still me a little to about the
11:26
a tasty works what that is and
11:28
how people can access are and what
11:30
you do with that support people Yeah
11:33
so when I was in my job
11:35
so I basically got tiger's. Rated state
11:37
Twenty five, managed to been calm
11:39
down, Nasa got a job and
11:42
long and. But. Still was
11:44
struggling with different aspects of they did
11:46
like with a bomb as not of
11:48
I owe magical Worry Open for human
11:50
tissue on Youtube. Have a wonderful life.
11:54
And sounds like scraping together money for
11:56
therapy. and then I found out that
11:58
am those government. Then could actually work
12:00
that could pay for people to have a D
12:03
H D coaching. Watch
12:05
for my. Are you kidding? Oh, I've
12:07
been spending like so much money on private
12:10
I admire says medication all of these things
12:12
like and I think I'd written yeah, had
12:14
already written the half of the book. On.
12:17
This book before even finding the south
12:19
of like because. That was purely me
12:21
trying to figure out what this idiot steeping
12:23
was because when I was diagnosed I didn't
12:25
believe it was real am and the definitely
12:27
didn't think he does and was were all
12:30
like a wasn't for me. That affects me
12:32
because my symptoms are so. On.
12:34
Like. And most know like more
12:36
than I'm like. I got way as month arms
12:39
and stuff like. Exams Not
12:41
problem because I could just memorize something
12:43
for. The day since I was and afterwards
12:45
but like I could remember every day during
12:48
examiner and them forgot. Yet.
12:50
Say I just was in fact find out
12:52
about accessed what played for it and then
12:54
that was at Ces. Mean the first time
12:56
I met someone that had also been diagnosed
12:59
a D H D M C thriller if
13:01
out of sight it's to advocate like as
13:03
really amazing pitching and it just help me
13:05
say much because I think it was that
13:07
validation and like what we just discussed and
13:10
I'm sure some people fulfilled like listening to
13:12
a podcast as well but like five years
13:14
ago these didn't exist. It's amazing because of
13:16
crisis of faith the time but like no
13:18
one was talking about idiot. Stain of know
13:21
his family's then it will. I do most
13:23
of the like when I actually took my
13:25
book up on linked them. Sovereignty
13:27
Of The. Game. I was mortified.
13:29
I like since he weakened by cry
13:31
of them. A spotless fighter with a hate
13:34
stay with her and be realized after posting
13:36
about was a delete That and I'm like
13:38
oh my god let why am I just
13:40
steroid this trail I've finally managed to get
13:43
like why and after the need to tell
13:45
anyone I've got like mental health ah. I'm.
13:48
Say. Yeah, like know, Missouri. Having
13:50
a conversation sets me. I had stretching and
13:52
it was just talking to someone like. That
13:55
had been for what. i've been for that could
13:57
understand my brain that could understand like the
13:59
problems me trying to get
14:02
certain goals done. The problem was
14:04
that I didn't know what to
14:06
even do in the first place and
14:08
had so many ideas that I couldn't
14:10
figure out which ones to do or this
14:13
or whatever, how to fit into the
14:15
world. So having the
14:17
coaching which also was amazingly paid for by
14:19
the government really really
14:21
helped me and also at the same time
14:23
working in law and seeing these
14:25
struggles that the company has had and supporting
14:27
people with disabilities because I worked with a
14:30
lot of law firms and
14:32
learning. The same thing that's why
14:34
I really am quite passionate about
14:36
giving people these resources especially for
14:38
free because knowledge
14:40
shouldn't cost people money especially in
14:43
the world of ADHD. We're already having to
14:45
pay so much for basic survival but
14:47
I feel very privileged to have been
14:50
able to understand all of that and
14:52
have experience in knowing the law and
14:54
what reasonable adjustments are for example. Never
14:56
would have ever known that
14:59
if I hadn't done that job in particular and it's
15:01
funny because at the time it felt so random and
15:03
I was looking back and like oh they're all linked
15:05
up. I
15:07
kind of had these different experiences through the coaching
15:09
also managed to publish
15:12
that book. I just mentioned ADHD and I
15:14
just self-published it because I'd started
15:16
getting people asking me about ADHD and I
15:18
would just send them the manuscript and they
15:21
were like that's so helpful please publish it.
15:24
Really I was so humiliated
15:27
in the past months and
15:29
I'm never going to mention that
15:31
ever again. Was that your
15:33
RSD kicking in? Was that
15:36
fear of being exposed the
15:38
vulnerability? What was the
15:41
bit if you kind of try and analyze
15:43
it now? What bit made you feel so
15:46
scared, anxious, worried about sharing the book?
15:49
I think it was that I'd finally managed
15:51
to like get a real job and be
15:53
happy and like you know as we've
15:55
been managing to live kind of quite well with
15:57
ADHD at that time so like... I
16:00
was just really scared like oh god now like
16:02
because I also worked with a lot of really
16:04
incredible mental health and disability lawyers and I was
16:06
like now we're all gonna be like what is
16:09
like how could she possibly have a job and
16:11
like oh my god and I was like I've
16:13
probably got things wrong in there because I just
16:15
wrote it by myself and it was like self-published
16:17
it wasn't like for a big publisher like now
16:19
it's been bought by a bigger publisher but like
16:21
I was like just felt
16:23
like such an import I made the cover
16:25
on Canva in like 10 minutes and obviously
16:27
misspelled which I could fix very easily but
16:30
also I had the kind of reference point
16:32
of I published a book before that called
16:34
the Model Manifesto and that book
16:36
like when it was launched it ended up on like the
16:38
cover of The Times and I was in the rain and
16:40
like and so the contrast
16:42
was and I put I
16:44
like wrote to a lot of the journalists
16:47
I worked with before and I was like
16:49
hello I've published the book and none of
16:51
them replied it was all these like rejection
16:54
things and being like oh my god and
16:56
yeah and so and that's just really
16:58
and like I remember someone that sent an email around to
17:00
my work being like look how amazing Leanna she accomplished this
17:02
book and I was like oh can we just not like
17:04
can no one know oh no
17:07
it's that it's a very bodice sort of
17:09
visceral feeling isn't it of that like oh
17:11
just make it go away like I remember
17:14
in a very similar vein when I launched
17:17
the podcast I was terrified
17:19
I was like what am I doing it's like
17:21
making me feel physically sick that I was like
17:23
putting myself out there and it
17:25
was it was all it was like this muscle
17:27
I had to keep flexing like every every week
17:29
I'd be like oh my god it's like podcast
17:31
week and then I realized the
17:33
people who were listening and the people
17:35
who were tuning in and listening every week
17:38
with the people that needed it and
17:40
I wasn't really guessing the feedback and the
17:42
judgment I thought I was gonna get so
17:45
that that kind of made me feel
17:47
okay that's okay because people who aren't
17:49
interested in ADHD and neurodiversity aren't going
17:51
to be listening and therefore not going
17:53
to be judging so It
17:56
did get easy but I totally get that. It
17:58
was like I almost. Wants to shut the
18:01
whole thing down and thrive a laptop in a
18:03
band, and run away? At least. Yes,
18:05
Yes and my how amazing of it that you
18:07
didn't do that but let my or coats of
18:10
the Times said. says. If not
18:12
about you it's about them like those all
18:14
the people that need the burke like that
18:16
remembering your why like wire during at and
18:18
now occurs with her lot on similar things
18:21
and light well known to have. To
18:23
say what I have found that was our.
18:25
You any, but just as a thorough doesn't you
18:27
know the know about it fitted to block them
18:29
for bet? Yeah, I'm really privileged to. Be.
18:32
In a position because they have to go into office
18:34
Annual setting. See people in worry about that? Such me
18:36
and my oh and I think the idiots the some
18:38
of them really handed act as like. that
18:40
that book I just kind of do it and
18:43
then forget about the quite quickly or like I
18:45
did see things and then like the kind of
18:47
of my mind or as like of kids as
18:49
a man but. Yeah
18:52
but mm but like to the coaching this
18:54
a had off the publishing at my church
18:56
was trying to be rage to succeed to
18:59
celebrate and pull and as that quite stressful
19:01
some to cry like you're gonna want to
19:03
talk about i suppose exclusive moments not to
19:05
let. By entering
19:07
sailing through so bet that. Ironically, about
19:10
three months later, I got methods from someone
19:12
on like Chris. She. Was a
19:14
like director microsoft. Person so message
19:16
rent Instagram and said. I
19:18
loved your bucket! Really really helped me so much.
19:21
Can you come and train us? At
19:24
Microsoft. Or
19:26
guy and my dad was items that
19:28
not a hoax don't do it says.
19:30
The. Exact given your bank account beto of.
19:34
And air am I have my model agent. The
19:36
Times as a tub may be eager them. Feel.
19:38
Of them have. A five percent Todd some
19:40
some by don't know what I'm and
19:43
like of the time much. Of what
19:45
you want towards Millet, hundred pounds nearly know
19:47
Mrs. Hudson. ones are thousand pounds. They're like
19:49
our so if I know what. Are
19:51
you kidding me? Like I'm one of the length
19:53
of way they can. Maybe a good job.
19:57
and then yes i like left my job and then
19:59
set this up But again,
20:01
when I first started coaching, the first people I
20:03
spoke to were people that were really struggling at
20:06
work in the same way. And again, because they
20:08
didn't know their rights, things like
20:10
reasonable adjustments and the support they should
20:12
have been entitled to, they were blaming themselves.
20:14
They were like, it's all my fault. I'm never going
20:16
to get a job anywhere. I'm an awful person. And
20:19
I was like, actually, do you know that you can
20:21
ask, for example, the interview
20:23
questions in advance. And that
20:25
isn't like... I had
20:27
a girl she would faint when she
20:29
was having interviews because she got so stressed
20:31
out. And I was like saying to her, it's
20:34
not special treatment to give you the interview
20:36
questions in advance. Not everybody else is
20:38
fainting out of stress in the interview. It was
20:40
recorded, or they would have seen you
20:43
fainting being mortified. But we
20:45
don't tell them in advance. But again, if you
20:47
don't have that education. So that was pretty much
20:49
what ADHD was about. Set
20:51
it up, start coaching. And
20:54
now I've coached lots of people, but the demand for it
20:56
is so high. I've got like a list of
20:58
200 people. Really sorry
21:00
for listening to this. I've not got back to
21:03
you yet. I will next week. Because we're now
21:05
taking on like 25 new coaches next
21:07
week, actually. So training them up to help
21:10
with the demand because there's just so much
21:12
of it. And last year I tried to
21:14
manage it by creating courses and doing group
21:17
coaching, which again, was incredible. We had like
21:19
over 500 people doing the courses. But
21:22
for me personally, like by myself,
21:24
me and my poor, poor virtual
21:26
assistant Beth, they were just like,
21:28
podcast retreat. Cool, this course, this course.
21:31
And like, that's my ADHD. And I'm like, we can
21:33
do five things at once. And like, book lot. And
21:36
we redid the book last year as well. The public,
21:38
the public. So that was
21:40
quite, it was very intense going out time. And
21:42
now I'm trying to do a bit more organizably.
21:45
So like we do all different angles of it,
21:47
like training up companies. And
21:49
like I mentioned, we've got the
21:52
ADHD retreats, which are really, really amazing to do.
21:54
But hopefully now I'll be
21:56
able to do it in a bit more of a like organized way
21:58
of where it's not. like bootstrapping
22:00
and me taking it all on by myself and exploding
22:02
because by the end of last year I kind of
22:04
never wanted to hear about ADHD ever again. I
22:08
mean I'm listening to you and you're literally
22:10
mirroring back to me my life so thank
22:12
you for that because I
22:14
was exactly the same. Yeah literally exactly the
22:16
same and I wanted to do it all
22:18
and serve lots of people in different capacities
22:21
and at the end of last year
22:23
come mid-December I was just so burnt
22:25
out where I made this very intentional
22:28
decision that January was going to be
22:30
you know downtime for me and I
22:32
was really going to kind of be
22:35
more mindful about how I want to work and
22:38
the capacity that I'm going to work in with
22:40
a family needing space and
22:42
time for myself my own well-being because
22:44
how can I serve other people if
22:46
I am burnt out and exhausted and
22:48
resentful that I haven't got time and
22:50
space so I've tried to be sort of
22:53
reconfigure the way I work because burnout
22:55
for so many of us with ADHD is always
22:57
just there on the you know
22:59
just just in the near distance but we
23:01
can always sense it and taste it and
23:03
see it and the signs you know come
23:05
back to us all the time when we're
23:07
taking on too much but you know with
23:09
our ADHD brains we have ideas and sometimes
23:11
it feels really hard not to fulfill them
23:13
especially we go oh my god that'll be
23:15
amazing I'll do this and I'll do that
23:17
and I think our clients
23:19
are the same and the people listening to this are
23:22
the same so it's trying to be
23:24
mindful of all the energy and all the help
23:26
and all the activism and the sense of justice
23:28
that we have that we want to do it
23:30
all and be it all and help everybody but
23:33
we are only this one person even
23:35
training teams you know like you're doing that
23:38
for me is scary because
23:40
I know how exhausting that can
23:42
be so
23:44
it's this passion that we have this constant passion
23:46
but in a way we've always kind of kind
23:49
of keep it on earth so I always see
23:51
it as like a bonfire that can go out
23:53
you know out of control and we've kind of
23:55
got to keep that the embers the umber what's
23:57
the word burning
24:00
embers embers burning on
24:03
a low but
24:06
we can very easily throw you know
24:08
like fire fuel and it
24:10
all goes crazy and goes to
24:12
shit. My hair is flat set on fire last week.
24:16
Wrong analogy. I
24:18
was like a fire coming out of it. I
24:21
was like really? I had to call the
24:23
fire engine. Oh my god what's that? Yeah
24:27
but it's a very good analogy. Yeah
24:29
but sometimes those things that blow up literally
24:31
in our lives is a little bit of
24:33
a sign to us that
24:35
things are we're taking on too much and we're doing
24:38
too much. So
24:41
I hope you enjoyed listening to this
24:43
shorter episode of the ADHD
24:45
Women's Wellbeing Podcast. I called it the
24:48
ADHD Women's Wellbeing Wisdom because I believe
24:50
there's so much wisdom in
24:52
the guests that I have on and their
24:54
insights. So sometimes we just need that little
24:57
bit of a reminder and I hope that
24:59
has helped you today and look forward to
25:01
seeing you back on the brand new episode
25:03
on Thursday. Have a good rest of your week.
