Jennifer's approach to healing is unapologetic and rebellious, reminding us that recovery and self-improvement are possible for everyone, no matter where they start.</p><p><strong>In this episode, we explore:</strong></p><ol><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>Jennifer's personal story, the labels she received growing up, and how her lived experience shaped her path and her purpose</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>How alcohol and substance use became a way of masking, functioning, and navigating a world that wasn't built for Jennifer</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>Why AuDHD women can be particularly vulnerable to risk-taking behaviours, manipulation, and abusive relationships</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>The impact of ADHD and autism on female relationships and the ongoing struggle for authentic connection</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>How trauma and pain live in the body, from posture and digestive issues to emotional weight and chronic pain</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>The role of fascia as the body's second nervous system, how it stores trauma, and its links to conditions like EDS</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>The power of movement and somatic therapy in nervous system regulation and genuine, embodied healing</li></ol><br/><p>For so many neurodivergent women, the trauma and pain they carry aren't just emotional. It lives in the body, in the nervous system.

It can be a gentle walk, a sensory moment with essential oils, a few deep breaths in between tasks, or even just noticing how you’re feeling, with kindness.</p><p><strong>Timestamps:</strong></p><ol><li>00:30 - Mindfulness for ADHD</li><li>01:02 - Understanding Mindfulness in Neurodivergent Minds</li><li>07:22 - Recognising Overwhelm and Taking a Pause</li><li>11:41 - Grounding Techniques for Anxiety</li><li>14:08 - Reimagining Mindfulness Practices</li><li>17:09 - Mindfulness and Self-Compassion</li></ol><br/><h2 class="ql-align-center">Join the <a href="https://adhd-womens-wellbeing.mykajabi.com/more-yourself-membership" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">More Yourself Community</a> - the doors are now open!</h2><p><a href="https://adhd-womens-wellbeing.mykajabi.com/more-yourself-membership" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><em>More Yourself</em></a><em> </em>is a compassionate space for late-diagnosed ADHD women to connect, reflect, and come home to who they really are. <a href="https://adhd-womens-wellbeing.mykajabi.com/more-yourself-membership" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Sign up here</a>!</p><p>Inside the <a href="https://adhd-womens-wellbeing.mykajabi.com/more-yourself-membership" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><em>More Yourself</em></a> Membership, you’ll be able to:</p><ol><li>Connect with like-minded women who understand you</li><li>Learn from guest experts and practical tools</li><li>Receive compassionate prompts &amp; gentle reminders</li><li>Enjoy voice-note encouragement from Kate</li><li>Join flexible meet-ups and mentoring sessions</li><li>Access on-demand workshops and quarterly guest expert sessions</li></ol><br/><p>To join for <strong>£26 a month</strong>, <a href="https://adhd-womens-wellbeing.mykajabi.com/offers/STi2ii73/checkout" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">click here</a>.

path, and for many, it can feel confusing, overwhelming, or simply out of reach.</p><p>In this week's episode of <em>The ADHD Women’s Wellbeing Podcast</em>, I’m joined by <a

myth‑busting and empowering episode for anyone who feels stuck or confused by the ADHD assessment process, is unsure who can assess them or whether their past diagnosis was thorough enough, feels uncomfortable being asked to involve family, is exploring non‑medication approaches, or is navigating perimenopause and wondering how hormonal changes affect ADHD and treatment.</p><h2

feel confusing, overwhelming, or simply out of reach.</p><p>In this week's episode of <em>The ADHD Women’s Wellbeing Podcast</em>, I’m joined by <a href="https://www.instagram.com/adhdnurse.uk/"

stuck or confused by the ADHD assessment process, is unsure who can assess them or whether their past diagnosis was thorough enough, feels uncomfortable being asked to involve family, is exploring

snippet from a recent guest workshop in the <a href="https://adhd-womens-wellbeing.mykajabi.com/more-yourself-membership" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">More Yourself Community</a>.</p><p>In this clip, <a href="linkedin.com/in/belinda-edington✨-415182113" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Belinda Edington</a>, executive functioning coach and director of <a href="https://mindspark.org.uk/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">MindSpark CIC</a>, joined the More Yourself Community to offer a gentle yet powerful reframing of what executive functioning really is and what it means for women with ADHD.</p><p>If you’ve ever wondered why things that seem simple for others, like starting tasks, managing time, or staying focused, feel impossibly hard, this session brings clarity, compassion, and hope.</p><p>Belinda breaks down the science behind executive functioning and helps us move away from shame or self-blame towards understanding and support.</p><p>In this clip, we explore:</p><ol><li>How executive function skills show up in everyday life</li><li>The difference between knowing what to do and being able to do it</li><li>The connection between ADHD, emotional regulation, memory and motivation</li><li>Why struggles with focus, planning or impulsivity are not personal failings</li><li>The role of compassion and scaffolding in building executive functioning skills</li></ol><br/><p>Timestamps:</p><ol><li><strong>05:46</strong>– What is Executive Functioning?</li><li><strong>07:03</strong> – Metacognition and Memory Explained</li><li><strong>13:00</strong> – Time Blindness</li><li><strong>16:18</strong> – ADHD and Misdiagnosis</li><li><strong>17:00</strong> – Reframing Laziness</li><li><strong>17:55</strong> – Neuroplasticity and Building New Skills</li><li><strong>18:35</strong> – Tools to Support Executive Function</li></ol><br/><p>This is a reminder that your challenges are not about willpower; they’re about brain function. And the more we understand, the more we can begin to support ourselves in ways that actually work.</p><p>If this snippet resonated, you can watch the full session and join future workshops inside the More Yourself community. <a href="https://adhd-womens-wellbeing.mykajabi.com/more-yourself-membership" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Sign up here</a>.</p><h2 class="ql-align-center"><span class="ql-size-small">Tickets to our first </span><a href="https://www.adhdwomenswellbeing.co.uk/adhdww-live-event" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" class="ql-size-small">LIVE ADHD Women's Wellbeing Event </a><span class="ql-size-small">are ON SALE!</span></h2><p>We're excited to offer you a full day of real-life connection, calm, and community for women diagnosed late in life who are ready to feel understood, supported, and seen.</p><p>Kate will be joined by two ADHD expert guest speakers, Hannah Miller and Dr Hannah Cullen!</p><p>You can expect:</p><ol><li>Honest, thoughtful, informative conversations</li><li>Connection with like-minded, late-diagnosed ADHD women</li><li>Information on hormones, energy levels and nervous system regulation</li><li>A space to come back to yourself, with women who truly get it</li></ol><br/><p>Event details: Friday March 6th 2026, 10:00am – 15:30pm in Wilmslow (near Manchester).</p><p>Book your ticket or find out more information <a href="https://www.adhdwomenswellbeing.co.uk/adhdww-live-event" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">here</a>!</p><h2 class="ql-align-center">Join the <a href="https://adhd-womens-wellbeing.mykajabi.com/more-yourself-membership" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">More Yourself Community</a> - the doors are now open!</h2><p><a href="https://adhd-womens-wellbeing.mykajabi.com/more-yourself-membership" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><em>More Yourself</em></a><em> </em>is a compassionate space for late-diagnosed ADHD women to connect, reflect, and come home to who they really are. <a href="https://adhd-womens-wellbeing.mykajabi.com/more-yourself-membership" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Sign up here</a>!</p><p>Inside the <a href="https://adhd-womens-wellbeing.mykajabi.com/more-yourself-membership" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><em>More Yourself</em></a> Membership, you’ll be able to:</p><ol><li>Connect with like-minded women who understand you</li><li>Learn from guest experts and practical tools</li><li>Receive compassionate prompts &amp; gentle reminders</li><li>Enjoy voice-note encouragement from Kate</li><li>Join flexible meet-ups and mentoring sessions</li><li>Access on-demand workshops and quarterly guest expert sessions</li></ol><br/><p>To join for <strong>£26 a month</strong>, <a href="https://adhd-womens-wellbeing.mykajabi.com/offers/STi2ii73/checkout" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">click here</a>.

<strong>Dr Judith Mohring</strong>, an internationally respected consultant organisational psychiatrist, coach, therapist and trainer with over 25 years’ experience working across clinical, leadership

The ADHD Women’s Wellbeing Podcast, we’re joined by <a href="https://www.instagram.com/backboneclinic/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>Nick Potter</strong></a>, consultant osteopath and head of health and wellbeing at Brevan Howard Asset Management. </p><p>Nick brings a fresh perspective on what’s really going on in our bodies, especially for neurodivergent women navigating stress, sensory overload, pain, and misdiagnosis.</p><p>We talk about how the brain processes pain, why hypermobility might be affecting your nervous system more than you think, and the powerful link between chronic conditions like fatigue, fibromyalgia, migraines, and hormonal symptoms and ADHD. </p><p><strong>Key takeaways:</strong></p><ul><li>What<strong> </strong>proprioception is and why ADHD women need to understand it</li><li>The science behind pain perception and why your brain might interpret things as worse than they are</li><li>How hypermobility and collagen differences affect proprioception (a unspoken 6th sense)</li><li>Why neurodivergent women experience more chronic fatigue, pain, and hormonal symptoms</li><li>The emotional relief and reduced pain that come with a proper diagnosis</li><li>The body budget theory: how burnout happens when your energy runs low, and what to do about it</li><li>How childhood stress and trauma can change the way your nervous system responds to the world</li><li>Using HRV (heart rate variability) as a signal for stress, illness or burnout</li><li>The additional stress women go through from having an additional hormone (the womb), and its impact on health </li><li>The importance of using anxiety and fear as a signal, not something to ignore</li><li>Simple, free tools to support your nervous system, such as resistance training, breathwork, and rest</li></ul><br/><p>This is an empowering and validating episode which explains why your body feels like it's constantly in overdrive and help you connect the dots between your body and brain in a whole new way.</p><p class="ql-align-center"><strong>My new book, The ADHD Women's Wellbeing Toolkit, is now available,&nbsp;</strong><a

rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>Nick Potter</strong></a>, consultant osteopath and head of health and wellbeing at Brevan Howard Asset Management. </p><p>Nick brings a fresh perspective on what’s really going on in our bodies, especially for neurodivergent women navigating stress, sensory overload, pain, and misdiagnosis.</p><p>We talk about how the brain processes pain, why hypermobility might be affecting your nervous system more than you think, and the powerful link between chronic conditions like fatigue, fibromyalgia, migraines, and hormonal symptoms and ADHD. </p><p><strong>Key takeaways:</strong></p><ul><li>What<strong> </strong>proprioception is and why ADHD women need to understand it</li><li>The science behind pain perception and why your brain might interpret things as worse than they are</li><li>How hypermobility and collagen differences affect proprioception (a unspoken 6th sense)</li><li>Why neurodivergent women experience more chronic fatigue, pain, and hormonal symptoms</li><li>The emotional relief and reduced pain that come with a proper diagnosis</li><li>The body budget theory: how burnout happens when your energy runs low, and what to do about it</li><li>How childhood stress and trauma can change the way your nervous system responds to the world</li><li>Using HRV (heart rate variability) as a signal for stress, illness or burnout</li><li>The additional stress women go through from having an additional hormone (the womb), and its impact on health </li><li>The importance of using anxiety and fear as a signal, not something to ignore</li><li>Simple, free tools to support your nervous system, such as resistance training, breathwork, and rest</li></ul><br/><p>This is an empowering and validating episode which explains why your body feels like it's constantly in overdrive and help you connect the dots between your body and brain in a whole new way.</p><p class="ql-align-center"><strong>My new book, The ADHD

Meaningful Neurodivergent Connections</title><itunes:title>Female Friendships and ADHD: How to Find Your Tribe and Build Meaningful Neurodivergent Connections</itunes:title><description><![CDATA[<p>In this week’s episode of <em>The ADHD Women’s Wellbeing Podcast</em>, we’re exploring the emotional complexities of female friendship through the lens of ADHD!</p><p>I'm joined by <strong>Dr. Gilly Kahn</strong>, a clinical psychologist and author of <a href="https://www.amazon.co.uk/Allow-Me-Interrupt-Psychologist-Emotional/dp/B0DVRJJW9M" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><em>Allow Me to Interrupt: A Psychologist Reveals the Emotional Truth Behind Women's ADHD</em></a>, to explore how emotional dysregulation, Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria (RSD), and masking impact our ability to form and maintain healthy social connections, but also help us develop the deepest and most supportive friendships. </p><p>We discuss why friendships can feel overwhelming, how the fear of being left out (or left behind) can trigger deep emotional responses, and how self-awareness and communication can help us nurture more authentic relationships.</p><p class="ql-align-center"><strong>My new book, The ADHD Women's Wellbeing Toolkit, is now available,&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://www.adhdwomenswellbeing.co.uk/adhd-womens-wellbeing-toolkit" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>grab your copy here!</strong></a></p><h3>Key Takeaways:</h3><ul><li>How emotional dysregulation and rejection sensitivity (RSD) can impact female friendships, often leading to misunderstandings and emotional overwhelm.</li><li>Why ADHD women often prefer direct, meaningful communication.</li><li>How small talk or indirect social norms can feel confusing or exhausting.</li><li>The common experience of feeling excluded or disconnected in group friendships, especially during times of emotional sensitivity.</li><li>The pressure to mask or people-please in social settings, and the toll that takes on mental wellbeing.</li><li>The power of gently “filtering” through friendships to focus on quality over quantity.</li><li>Why FOMO, birthday anxiety, and fear of people not showing up are amplified for women with ADHD.</li><li>How to honour your social battery by setting boundaries and creating space to recharge.</li><li>Building self-awareness around your social patterns can help reduce RSD triggers and protect your emotional energy.</li><li>The impact of finding your <strong>“tribe”</strong> in friendships where you can be fully yourself, without masking or performing.</li></ul><br/><p><strong>Timestamps:</strong></p><ul><li>00:01: Introduction to ADHD Women's Wellbeing</li><li>12:12: Navigating Female Friendships and ADHD</li><li>22:44: Understanding

It’s a guide to understanding yourself, building supportive habits, and creating a life that aligns with your needs rather than forcing yourself into a one-size-fits-all approach.</p><h4>Key Takeaways:</h4><p>💡 How <em>The ADHD Women’s Wellbeing Toolkit</em> is designed to help women shift from just managing ADHD to thriving with it.</p><p>💡 How the book offers practical strategies to reduce overwhelm, boost self-trust, and create an ADHD-friendly lifestyle.</p><p>💡 Tools included in the book for emotional wellbeing, self-compassion, and breaking free from burnout.</p><p>💡 Emphasising the role of self-acceptance and understanding your neurobiology helps reframe ADHD as a strength rather than a limitation.</p><p>💡 How my journey writing this book was filled with challenges and lessons in self-trust, community, and asking for help.</p><p>💡 How pre-ordering <em>The ADHD Women’s Wellbeing Toolkit</em> will help to ensure it reaches local bookshops and gets into the hands of the women who need it most.</p><p><a href="https://www.dk.com/uk/book/9780241774885-the-adhd-womens-wellbeing-toolkit/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><em>Pre-order</em> <em>The ADHD Women’s Wellbeing Toolkit</em></a> now and be part of this journey with me! </p><h3>Links &amp; Resources:</h3><p><strong>🌸 If you love the podcast but want further ADHD Women's Wellbeing support, join me for a series of breakthrough </strong><a href="https://adhdwomenswellbeing.co.uk/adhd-womens-wellbeing-series" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>ADHD Wellbeing Workshops</strong></a><strong> and step into more understanding, self-advocacy, self-empowerment and self-acceptance to swap burnout and overwhelm for balance and ease this spring 🌸</strong></p><p>❗Get a sneak peek of my brand new book, <em>The ADHD Women's Wellbeing Toolkit </em>and pre-order it&nbsp;<a href="https://geni.us/ADHDBook" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">here</a>!❗</p><p><a href="https://www.adhdwomenswellbeing.co.uk/workshops" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Find all of Kate's popular online workshops and free resources here</a></p><p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/adhd_womenswellbeing_pod/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Follow the podcast on Instagram</a> </p><p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/kate_moryoussef/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Follow Kate on Instagram</a></p><p><a href="https://www.adhdwomenswellbeing.co.uk/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Kate Moryoussef</a> is a women's ADHD lifestyle and wellbeing coach and EFT practitioner who helps overwhelmed and unfulfilled newly diagnosed ADHD women find more calm, balance, hope, health, compassion, creativity and clarity.&nbsp;</p><p>Mentioned in this episode:</p><p><a href="https://the-adhd-womens-wellbe.captivate.fm/gratitude-link">Gratitude link</a></p>]]></content:encoded><link><![CDATA[https://the-adhd-womens-wellbe.captivate.fm/episode/wisdom-kate-book-announcement-kate-spence]]></link><guid isPermaLink="false">bb189f14-9551-4af3-a782-922f3abf2e0a</guid><itunes:image href="https://artwork.captivate.fm/034a7206-dc54-45b3-9011-60a92670d853/lrcsxX9KLNRNdYj72dDdARc8.jpg"/><pubDate>Mon, 17 Mar 2025 00:15:00 +0100</pubDate><enclosure url="https://pdcn.co/e/podcasts.captivate.fm/media/2c112ac7-5870-4a7b-b013-9095e8d65f71/Wisdom-Ep-Build-Kate-solo-book-anno-for-upload.mp3" length="51992137" type="audio/mpeg"/><itunes:duration>36:06</itunes:duration><itunes:explicit>true</itunes:explicit><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType><itunes:episode>209</itunes:episode><podcast:episode>209</podcast:episode><podcast:transcript url="https://transcripts.captivate.fm/transcript/14860dda-4e71-4dd9-a94d-b0a6cee24af9/transcript.json" type="application/json"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcripts.captivate.fm/transcript/14860dda-4e71-4dd9-a94d-b0a6cee24af9/transcript.srt" type="application/srt" rel="captions"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcripts.captivate.fm/transcript/14860dda-4e71-4dd9-a94d-b0a6cee24af9/index.html" type="text/html"/></item><item><title>Creating Your Unique ADHD Productivity/Rest Balance with Grace Koelma</title><itunes:title>Creating Your Unique ADHD Productivity/Rest Balance with Grace Koelma</itunes:title><description><![CDATA[<p>How do you balance productivity, rest, growth and self-compassion with ADHD?</p><p>In this episode, I’m joined by <a href="https://futureadhd.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Grace Koelma</a>, ADHD advocate, writer, and creator of the Future ADHD digital planner, which has helped over 80,000 neurodivergent individuals better organise their lives. </p><p>Diagnosed with ADHD in her early 30s, Grace knows firsthand the frustrations of traditional productivity tools and has built a career around helping ADHDers work with—not against—their brains.

I also relate to this from a personal perspective with one of my ADHD daughters suffering from migraines, as well as quite a few friends. Migraines can be a lifelong debilitating condition alongside the many other symptoms that come with them. </p><p>Today's ADHD Women's Wellbeing Podcast episode explores the very powerful connection between migraines and neurodivergence in women with my guest, <a href="https://www.instagram.com/mynectarhealth/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Diane Ducarme</a>, the contemporary master of migraine investigation. Her unique approach combines the ancient wisdom of Traditional Chinese Medicine with cutting-edge technology to unearth the intricate root causes of migraines weaving on top of genetics.

I also relate to this from a personal perspective with one of my ADHD daughters suffering from migraines, as well as quite a few friends. Migraines can be a lifelong debilitating condition alongside the many other symptoms that come with them. </p><p>Today's ADHD Women's Wellbeing Podcast episode explores the very powerful connection between migraines and neurodivergence in women with my guest, <a href="https://www.instagram.com/mynectarhealth/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Diane Ducarme</a>, the contemporary master of migraine investigation. Her unique approach combines the ancient wisdom of Traditional Chinese Medicine with cutting-edge technology to unearth the intricate root causes of migraines weaving on top of genetics. Diane’s relentless inquisitive mind for highly complex problems is what allows her to deliver life-transforming results, which is the fuel to her energy.</p><p>What sets Diane apart is her emphasis on the power of functional foods. Unlike conventional approaches focusing on eliminating foods, Diane adds new elements to the equation.

Maybe that’s an injury, illness, ill family member, work crisis or even a pandemic!</p><p>Our ADHD nervous system has been fine-tuned to keep running on high alert, despite feeling fraught and exhausted most of the time.</p><p>But with awareness of ADHD comes power. Power to prevent. Power to see what we haven’t been able to understand before. Burnout cycles we thought were because we couldn’t keep up. Always more to do, be, produce, create and show. Never enough. Never on top of things. I must keep doing more. And then what? We break down, we collapse and we burn out and we’re no good to anyone. And then the cycle of shame happens.</p><p>I took a break and for the first time, I didn’t feel guilty. I knew I deserved this break. I was worthy of relaxing and restoring. I knew that this was in the best interest of everyone around me, including my clients, family and friends. It was needed and it was wonderful. I felt rejuvenated and re-energised—no guilt or fear of judgement.</p><p>In this solo episode (guest episode returning on Thursday) I talk about how to find a break if you can’t escape for a few days. I call them micro pauses that we can all do and become more intentional about every day. I am actively retraining myself to find more time to breathe, pause and recalibrate every day so I can show up for my family and my work - both of which are hugely important to me. Not only this, but also for my mental health, mood regulation, anxiety, nervous system and physical health (my back). I’m finally ready to prioritise this and invite you to do the same.</p><p>I also talk about ADHD, women's health and hormones and will be talking about this more in the next few months.

Reducing reactivity, how to start a difficult conversation. Being non-judgmental in a conflict. </p><p><strong>Merriam Saunders</strong> - talking about curating a morning routine, reacting to our kids, modelling to your children how to emotionally regulate, noticing the feelings in our body, and balancing our nervous system.&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Tamara Rosier&nbsp;</strong>- talking about understanding how to access our 'emotional butler' to calm down. Reaching for more acceptance and recognition of emotional dysregulation&nbsp;with ADHD. Taking time to make energetic buffers and check back in to ensure we're not in a constant frenzy. </p><p><strong>Melissa Orlov</strong>&nbsp;-talking about how RSD shows up in our daily life, being aware of our intense emotional regulation and sending ourselves compassion to help our relationships. Breaking generational patterns and using more awareness to break cycles. Reward-focussed brain feeling pain easily. Emotional management and quick rage ramp-up tips.</p><p><strong>Marcy Caldwell&nbsp;</strong>- talking about being derailed by our emotions. Emotional check-ins, small daily tools to help ourselves. How to ease the overwhelm and emotional dysregulation and reactivity - buffer to shed the overstimulation.</p><p><strong>Grace&nbsp;Timothy&nbsp;</strong>- talking about editing life to help the demands of life, having the awareness to help push&nbsp;forwards with ADHD.
