  420 I Cured My ADHD Revenge Bedtime Procrastination. Here's Exactly How. 14.07.2026 51p

  Do you stay up way past bedtime, even when you're exhausted, because it's the only time that finally feels like yours?That's called revenge bedtime procrastination, and for many adults with ADHD, it isn't about poor discipline. It's about desperately trying to reclaim autonomy after a day full of demands.In this episode, I share the surprising mindset shift that completely changed my relationship with bedtime. Instead of trying to force myself to sleep earlier, I stopped making bedtime the only time I belonged to myself.We'll talk about why ADHD brains crave freedom at night, how boundaries and transitions changed everything, why I made my weeknights intentionally boring, and the powerful decision to let the clock—not my to-do list—decide when work is over.If your favorite part of the day is when everyone else is asleep, this episode might change the way you think about your evenings—and your life.Because maybe you aren't addicted to staying up.Maybe you're starving for freedomWatch this episode on YouTubeWant help with your ADHD?

  412 How ADHD Steals Your Self-Trust and How to Get It Back with Dr. Russell Ramsay 16.06.2026 1ó 8p

  What if the biggest obstacle in your life isn't ADHD? What if it's that you no longer trust yourself?In this episode, I sit down with ADHD psychologist and author Dr. Russell Ramsay to talk about one of the most painful and overlooked consequences of living with ADHD: the erosion of self-trust. After years of missed deadlines, abandoned plans, and broken promises to ourselves, many of us begin to wonder if we can rely on our own intentions at all.Dr. Ramsay shares why self-trust matters, how it gets damaged, and—most importantly—how we can begin rebuilding it. We discuss the difference between self-compassion and letting yourself off the hook, why accountability works better than self-criticism, and how our childhood experiences and family dynamics can shape the way we see ourselves today.If you've ever thought, "Why can't I just do what I say I'm going to do?" this conversation is for you. And make sure to check out Dr. Ramsay's new book, Once I Get Started: The Adult ADHD Guide to Turning Intentions Into Action.Watch this episode on YouTubeWant help with your ADHD?

  410 The Exhaustion, The Book, and The People Who Are Mad at Me 09.06.2026 34p

  This week’s episode is a personal catch-up on everything that’s been taking up space in my brain lately.My capacity feels low. My ADHD symptoms feel loud. I’m exhausted in that deep, bone-tired way that makes me want to spend the next two months under a blanket. Between the end-of-school-year chaos, parenting an emerging adult through graduation and next steps, writing a book, and navigating the general heaviness of life right now, I’m feeling it.I also share some behind-the-scenes updates about my upcoming book, including a title I seriously considered: Nobody’s Mad at You. The problem? It’s not entirely true.Sometimes people are mad at us. There are people mad at me right now. The goal isn’t to convince ourselves that everyone approves of us—it’s to learn that we can tolerate discomfort, navigate conflict, and stay connected anyway.In this episode, I talk about exhaustion, ADHD, parenting, the economy, the book-writing process, and the freedom that comes from accepting that being imperfect doesn’t make you unworthy of love, belonging, or healthy relationships.Watch this episode on YouTubeWant help with your ADHD?

  408 I Surveyed Over 2,100 Adults with ADHD—Here’s What Broke My Heart 02.06.2026 47p

  Last summer, I surveyed over 2,174 adults with ADHD about their relationships, and the results stopped me in my tracks.In this episode, I’m sharing the themes, patterns, and painful truths that emerged from those responses, and how they confirmed so many things I’ve observed over the last seven years coaching adults with ADHD.We talk about relational wounding, rejection, criticism, emotional misunderstanding, and what happens when you grow up feeling like “too much,” “not enough,” or chronically misunderstood. We also explore how those early experiences can shape the way we show up in our adult relationships today.This is a heavier conversation, but it’s also an important one. My hope is that you walk away feeling seen, understood, and a little less alone.Watch this episode on YouTubeWant help with your ADHD? Join FOCUSED!Have questions for Kristen?

  406 No Meds, No Shame. Here’s How I’d Support My ADHD Without an Rx 26.05.2026 43p

  If I couldn’t, or didn’t want to, take ADHD medication, how would I support my brain?In this episode, I’m walking you through exactly how I’d approach ADHD treatment without meds. This is not anti-medication content. Medication helps me tremendously. But many people don’t have access, don’t tolerate it well, or simply don’t want to take it. You still deserve support.We’re talking about what actually helps ADHD brains function: external support, nervous system regulation, movement, sunlight, sleep, structure, accountability, relationships, and designing a life that works with your brain instead of against it.I share what I’d invest in if I had financial resources, like coaching, meal support, cleaning help, therapy, and body doubling, and what I’d focus on if I had zero extra money.Because treatment isn’t just medication. It’s how you structure your environment, care for your nervous system, fuel your body, and build support around you.You are not powerless. ADHD support is built, not found.Watch this episode on YouTubeWant help with your ADHD? Join FOCUSED!Have questions for Kristen?

  404 There’s No Rush: Getting Out of Fight-or-Flight with Jenna Free 19.05.2026 52p

  This week on the podcast, I’m joined by ADHD counselor Jenna Free to talk all about emotional regulation, nervous system regulation, and why ADHDers need to stop rushing.Jenna is a Certified Canadian Counsellor (CCC) who specializes in helping ADHD brains move out of fight-or-flight and into a state where they can function at their best—while honoring neurodivergence and individual needs.Together, we explore the four stress responses—fight, flight, freeze, and fawn—and how chronic rushing keeps so many ADHDers stuck in survival mode. We also discuss why slowing down can feel so uncomfortable, what regulation actually looks like in real life, and how nervous system support can improve productivity, relationships, emotional resilience, and overall quality of life.If you’re constantly overwhelmed, reactive, exhausted, or feeling like you can never fully relax, this episode will help you understand why.Jenna also shares insights from her book, The Simple Guide to ADHD Regulation.Watch this episode on YouTubeWant help with your ADHD?
