    How to Start a UGC Side Hustle: Guide for Gen X & Boomer Women

    Get 40% OFF Megan's Ultimate UGC course! 🔗 What if I told you that brands are actively looking to pay Gen X and Boomer women to create content—and you don't need a single follower to get started? Yeah, I know. It sounds too good to be true. But it's not. In this episode, you'll meet Megan Collier, who's been teaching women in their 40s, 50s, 60s, and beyond how to create user-generated content (UGC) and get paid for it. FYI we're not talking about becoming an influencer or posting to your own social media where your judgmental sister can see it. We're talking about creating content for brands to use in their marketing—content that can pay anywhere from a few hundred bucks per video to $10,000+ per month for those who go all in. Megan breaks down exactly what UGC is, how it's different from influencing, why brands specifically want to work with our age group (finally!), and how you can get started even if you've never been on camera before. She shares real stories from her students—including her own mom—who are making real money doing this. Come as you are. Show the heck up. And let's talk about making some money in 2026.

If you've ever asked yourself this question, you're not alone. In this final episode of our 3-part ADHD series, host Jackie MacDougall sits down with ADHD coach Kristen Carder to unpack what ADHD actually looks like when it overlaps with anxiety, shame, overstimulation, and the constant pressure to keep it all together. This conversation goes deep into: ✨ How to tell the difference between ADHD and anxiety (and why so many women are misdiagnosed) ✨ The "too much and not enough" paradox that defines untreated ADHD ✨ Why shame keeps us stuck—and how to break free from it ✨ Phone addiction, social media, and self-medicating behaviors ✨ Practical coping strategies that actually work (hello, productive procrastination!) ✨ How to work WITH your ADHD brain instead of against it ✨ Setting boundaries around your capacity and energy ✨ Why there's no "perfect system" that will fix everything Key Takeaway: Whether you have ADHD or not, you are not broken. You don't need fixing—you need understanding, compassion, and support to work with your unique brain. This episode is not medical advice. Always consult with a qualified healthcare professional for diagnosis and treatment.

In part two of our three-part ADHD series, Jackie is joined again by ADHD coach and I Have ADHD podcast host Kristen Carder to talk about something a lot of grown-ass women are quietly wondering about: treatment. In the first episode, we unpacked how ADHD actually shows up in women—and why it’s so often missed or confused with things like perimenopause, burnout, or major life transitions. In this episode, we go deeper into what helps once you start asking, Okay… now what? We talk about ADHD medication—who it might help, who might not need it, and what it really looks like in real life—along with non-medication options like exercise, therapy, and coaching. We also break down the differences between therapy and coaching, why trauma-informed care matters, and what questions to ask so you can find support that actually fits your brain and your life. This conversation is not medical advice, and it’s not here to diagnose you or anyone you love. It is here to help you understand your options so you can make more informed, empowered decisions. If you’ve ever wondered whether ADHD treatment could make life feel less overwhelming—or you’re trying to support a child, partner, or friend—this episode will help you see the landscape more clearly. Up next: In the final episode of this series, we talk about ADHD, anxiety, and depression—because the symptoms can overlap in confusing ways. How do you know what’s really going on?
