    Self-regulation Tools for ADHD Disordered Eating

    Disordered eating is sadly a common co-occurring symptom of ADHD. Many of us have gone through decades of not understanding why we have battled with these challenges, and then after we receive a late-in-life ADHD diagnosis, we're able to understand why it presented itself. This is a powerful conversation that focuses on how emotional regulation plays a vital part in preventing and treating eating disorders. This week's guest is Thomas Midgley, a behavioural and cognitive psychotherapist (CBT) and dietitian specialising in eating disorders. Having worked in the field for more than 18 years, Thomas has a deep understanding of the delicate balance between body image, emotional health and the challenges neurodivergent people face when it comes to disordered eating. Kate and Thomas spoke about: Disordered eating vs eating disorders: why these important distinctions matter – especially for anyone with ADHD or autism.Emotional regulation in recovery: how emotional regulation plays a vital part in preventing and treating eating disorders.Compassionate therapy: how DBT and compassion-focused therapy support emotional wellbeing and recovery.Parenting and emotional resilience: how parents can balance validation and resilience when raising neurodivergent children.Neurodivergence and eating disorders: the connection between ADHD and autism and the increased risk of eating disorders.Compassion in treatment: How compassionate, non-judgmental therapy helps us understand and manage our emotions effectively.

    Reprogramming Your ADHD Beliefs: From Fear to Empowerment

    This week's ADHD Women's Wellbeing Toolkit episode dives into the complexities of ADHD. PLUS, we introduce a new feature, "Ask the Psych," featuring Dr. Asad Raffi, a consultant psychiatrist with 24 years of experience and personal insights on ADHD. Over the next few episodes, Dr Raffi will share his extensive knowledge and personal insights to help you navigate your ADHD challenges. This week, we discuss ADHD and self-sabotage, low self-esteem, imposter syndrome, trauma, RSD and the pressing need for improved medical support and understanding. Dr Raffi emphasises the importance of understanding ADHD not just as a set of symptoms but as a condition that profoundly impacts emotional regulation and relationships. During my solo coaching, I introduce the concept of reprogramming negative beliefs so we can shift from fear-based thinking to a more empowering mindset. I also discuss the significance of self-compassion and leaning into intuition to help overcome self-doubt and fear of failure. Ultimately, the episode invites you to consider what you can release from your life that no longer serves you, fostering a journey towards more self-belief, self-acceptance and growth. The Toolkit's Key Takeaways: * The podcast introduces the 'Ask the Psych' feature to provide expert insights on ADHD challenges. * Dr. Asad Raffi highlights the critical impact of childhood criticism on self-esteem in those with ADHD. * Misdiagnosis and lack of understanding in medical support for ADHD are significant issues affecting patients. * Recognizing and reprogramming negative thought patterns is essential for personal growth and well-being. * The Hawaiian prayer, Ho'oponono for self-forgiveness, can help restore balance and promote self-compassion.

    Unlocking Your ADHD: Strategies for Effortless Productivity

    Traditional productivity metrics often do not apply to those with ADHD. We need to advocate for a redefinition of success that aligns with our personal strengths and unique workflows. From leveraging technology to simplifying organization to embracing alternative productivity methods, this episode shares practical strategies you can incorporate into your daily lives. This week, I speak to Skye Waterson, a former adult education, psychology, sociology, and public health academic who is now the founder of the Unconventional Organisation. Skye was diagnosed with ADHD at the start of her doctorate. Since then, she has researched and disseminated ADHD studies, focusing on supporting others with strengths-based, neurodiverse-friendly tools and systems. Skye Waterson's journey from academia to entrepreneurship is a testament to the power of understanding our neurodiversity. Diagnosed with ADHD during her PhD, Skye faced the daunting task of reconciling her academic ambitions with the realities of her ADHD, leading her to develop a coaching business dedicated to helping others navigate similar challenges. The episode dives deep into the intricacies of ADHD, particularly how it manifests differently in women and how societal expectations can lead to feelings of inadequacy and burnout. Skye emphasizes the importance of creating a supportive environment where women can thrive by utilizing tools that cater to their neurodiverse brains. The conversation underscores the need for greater awareness and acceptance of ADHD, particularly in professional settings, as well as the potential for neurodivergent individuals to excel when given the right tools and support. During this episode of The ADHD Women's Wellbeing Podcast, we talk about: Skye Waterson discusses her journey of discovering ADHD during her PhD, highlighting the challenges she faced.Understanding our unique ADHD brains can empower us to embrace different productivity methods.The importance of creating effortlessly balanced days where productivity feels natural and fluid.Self-belief can be a significant barrier for ADHD individuals when pursuing new projects.Using tools like AI can simplify executive functioning, helping to manage ADHD tasks effectively.Recognizing past achievements helps build confidence for future endeavours and goal-setting.
