Описание: Get coached by Kristen in FOCUSED | https://ihaveadhd.com/focusedcoaching

You’re not lazy or broken. ADHD is real, and you deserve a life that works for you.

Feeling like you're stuck in survival mode? Can’t keep up with the laundry, your inbox, or... your life? You’re not alone—and you’re not broken. This episode is the loving wake-up call (and gentle nudge) you didn’t know you needed.

We’re breaking down what it really means to be low-, mid-, and high-functioning with ADHD—and why wherever you are on that scale is totally OK. This is your roadmap to rise, slowly but surely.

What we cover:
✨Low vs. mid vs. high-functioning ADHD
✨Why meds matter (but aren’t magic)
✨The basics: water, sleep, movement, hygiene
✨Exercise = brain boost (science says so!)
✨Journaling to calm the chaos 🧠
✨Emotional regulation = your secret weapon
✨Finding your people and setting real limits
✨Ditching people-pleasing and life-designing instead
✨Resting on purpose (not just numbing)

Healing ADHD is a slow, messy, totally possible journey. Just move the needle a little this week.
