Send us a text

I should be able to do this! 

I just have to keep going. 

If I just worked harder…

If you find yourself having similar thoughts - you are NOT alone. But you do not need to be carrying ANY of that shame. This week Dr. Lee is joined by business coach Lara Wellman to discuss what it can look like to live by your own standards (instead of societal “shoulds”), healing from shame around an ADHD diagnosis, and why being “lazy” doesn’t have to be a bad thing. Ready to get rid of the damn boxes they put you in and start defining your own worth? Let’s go to the show! 

They’re exploring:

• Lara’s ADHD journey - her perception of herself before diagnosis, and the healing that came afterward
• Why conforming children to societal norms can be harmful (and some advice to help them live more shame free)
• Toxic productivity syndrome - what Dr. Lee means by this and how to ditch it!
• One of the BIGGEST effects of the communal family breakdown
• How to STOP doing the things you don’t want to do in your life and business
• The current school system and if it is serving the ADHD brain
• And more!
