It’s taken me a long time to get here and I nearly at times didn’t , but I made it — just in time for perimenopause (joy 😭).

Because once upon a time, I needed a space like this — and I felt welcome nowhere. So let’s not recreate that. After years of ADHD masking, autism masking, people pleasing, emotional burnout, and trying to fit into spaces that never fully fit me, I’m now on a journey to better understand myself, my AuDHD brain, and what it really means to live authentically as a neurodivergent woman — whilst training as a therapist, working as a mentor and coach, and occasionally doing motivational speaking.

    How Childhood Trauma Shapes Relationships, Self-Worth and Healing | Anu Verma

    🎙️ Victim 2 Victor: Trauma, Relationships and Learning That Love Doesn’t Have To Be Earned | Anu Verma In this powerful and deeply honest conversation, I sit down with trauma recovery coach, therapist, author, podcaster and filmmaker Anu Verma to explore the lasting impact of childhood trauma and what healing can really look like. Together we discuss how traumatic experiences can shape our relationships, self-worth, nervous system and sense of identity long into adulthood. Anu shares her personal journey of recovery and offers insight into trauma bonds, people-pleasing, unhealthy relationship patterns, emotional healing and nervous system regulation. We also explore whether trauma can be stored in the body, how childhood experiences can influence the partners we choose later in life, and why so many survivors feel they need to earn love rather than simply receive it. This episode includes an important discussion inspired by Anu’s conversation with Hannah Shewan Stevens on sexual violence against women, the lack of support available to many survivors, and the long-term effects trauma can have on both physical and emotional wellbeing. Topics covered include: ✨ Childhood trauma and its lasting impact ✨ Trauma stored in the body ✨ Sexual violence and recovery ✨ Trauma bonds and relationship patterns ✨ People-pleasing and the “fixer” role ✨ Self-worth and validation ✨ Nervous system healing ✨ Fight, flight, freeze and fawn responses ✨ Emotional resilience and recovery ✨ Learning that love doesn’t have to be earned Whether you’re navigating your own healing journey, supporting someone who has experienced trauma, or simply wanting to better understand the connection between trauma, relationships and recovery, this episode offers compassion, insight and hope. 📌 Connect with Anu Verma: https://victim2victor.net/

    Introducing the Ellie AuDHD Personal Spotify Subscribers Hub | The Stories Behind the Podcast

    Introducing the AuDHD and Then Some Subscriber Hub | The Stories Behind the Podcast I’ve spent a lot of time deciding whether to create a subscriber space, and in this episode I explain why I’ve chosen to do it. Many people know me through my ADHD, autism and AuDHD content, but there are also parts of my life story that have shaped who I am today. Some experiences are funny, some are difficult, some taught me valuable lessons, and some are stories I don’t feel comfortable sharing publicly with the entire world. The main podcast will continue to be free and accessible to everyone. However, the subscriber hub will give me a space to share some of the more personal experiences, life lessons, challenges and reflections that have influenced my journey. This isn’t about sensationalising difficult experiences. It’s about sharing lived experience in a way that may help others feel less alone, better understand themselves, or learn from some of the things I’ve experienced throughout my life. If you’ve ever wondered about the stories behind the podcast, this episode explains what you can expect from the subscriber hub and why I’ve decided to create it. Topics include ADHD, Autism, AuDHD, Neurodivergence, Late Diagnosis, Family Dynamics, Childhood Experiences with themes of abuse , Personal Growth, Mental Health, substance abuse, Parenting, Resilience, Boundaries, Self-Worth and Lived Experience and unfortunately much more 💜 Ellie

    The Hidden Guilt of Unread Messages | People Pleasing, AuDHD & The Pressure of Being Needed

    Today I discovered something that filled me with a whole new level of guilt, dread and panic… A spam message folder. Now, to most people, that probably doesn’t sound like a big deal. But to a recovering people pleaser with AuDHD, discovering messages from people who thought I’d ignored them has sent my brain into overdrive. The reality is that I never imagined so many people would reach out to me. Every day I receive messages about ADHD, autism, AuDHD, diagnosis journeys, parenting, relationships, mental health, burnout, masking and life in general. I am incredibly grateful that people trust me enough to share their stories, but if I’m honest, it also comes with a level of pressure that I wasn’t prepared for. In this episode, I talk openly about the guilt of unread messages, the impossible standards we place on ourselves, people pleasing, rejection sensitivity and what happens when your desire to help everyone collides with the reality that you’re only one human being. If you’ve ever felt guilty for not replying, struggled to keep up with messages, or felt responsible for everyone else’s feelings, this conversation is for you. And a quick disclaimer… If you ever need to speak with me directly and it’s something important, please don’t rely on social media messages alone. The best way to guarantee dedicated time with me is through my website. You can book: ✨ Discovery Calls ✨ Podcast Features ✨ Brainstorm Sessions ✨ Body Doubling Sessions ✨ Mentoring & Support Appointments That way, I know you have a dedicated space in my diary and can give you my full attention. Maybe some of you are reading this thinking, “Why on earth would I want to talk to her?” Honestly… I still don’t fully understand that either. 😂 But if you do, the option is there. 🌈 Book here: www.ellieaudhd.com #AuDHD #ADHDPodcast #AutismPodcast #PeoplePleasing #ADHDWomen #Neurodivergent #ExecutiveDysfunction #RejectionSensitiveDysphoria #AuDHDLife #MentalHealthPodcast #BodyDoubling #ADHDSupport #AutismSupport #Neurodiversity
