Welcome to One Inch Past Scary! I’m Kirsty, mom of five kids aged 12-24, jack of many trades and currently a graduate student of Clinical mental health Counselling at Northwestern University. I’ve battled complex PTSD and I’m proudly ADHD. I’m constantly reminded that all the good stuff happens when we push just one inch past the scary. I’m here to help you feel seen, to remind you that you are in fact genuinely awesome and to normalise the messiness of healing and life itself. The more I learn the less I know, but I’m offering you everything I can to make your path a little easier. ♥️ Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/kirsty-sayer/support

Maybe you life is already magic?
Here is a podcast I recorded almost a year ago and never published. I have no idea what it contains so we can hear about it at the same time. I wonder what I will think of it?!!

Living Shamelessly and free with ADHD
Hi kids! I’m back and getting vulnerable about the grip shame has had on me. I’m offering some unorthodox tips that are working for me to hack ADHD mostly by confronting it’s most debilitating bed partner: SHAME. Why thinking that you have to shame yourself in order to get or stay motivated is a HUGE mistake and how becoming resilience to shame will free up a ton of bandwidth and allow you to use your uncommonly brilliant brain infinitely more effectively. I also talk about PDA (not the fun kind) and how I’m finding hacks to get around that. A tip! If you have ADHD try listening to me 2x or even 3x speed. I speak pretty slowly and ADHD brains tend to focus better on speedy stuff.

ADHD and Emotional Dysregulation (featuring RSD: Rejection Sensitivity Dysphoria)
Emotional Dysregulation is one of the least well understood yet major components of ADHD and can be it’s most serious and debilitating symptom. Today I discuss ADHD and RSD (Rejection Sensitivity Dysphoria) one very common and extremely painful manifestation of DESR (deficient emotional self-regulation). *This episode draws from a clinical presentation I did on the topics for my masters program at Northwestern University. I really encourage anyone with ADHD or who loves someone with ADHD to listen.

Stuff I learned in grad school that I wish I learned in kindergarten
This week I’m talking about things like creating comparison narratives (why is everyone but me so competent/cool; why is everybody mad at me). Why people participate in “pain Olympics” (my trauma is worse than your trauma) and what one single thing allowed me to conduct an effective therapy session under pressure with almost no clinical skills.
