ADHD and anxiety? It’s a tangled duo—and often mistaken for “just overreacting.” From late diagnoses to using stress as a survival tool, the ADHD experience is full of patterns that make sense once you understand your brain. 🔄🧠

In this validating and eye-opening episode, we sit down with Will Curb, host of Hacking Your ADHD, to talk about dismantling shame, redefining effort, and building strategies that actually work for ADHD brains.

Join us as we explore:
⏰ Why anxiety became Will’s go-to time management system
🧒 The mindset shift that changed how he approaches kids and parenting
📉 What happens when we mistake “having a hard time” for “not trying”
🛠️ ADHD tools and reframes that support long-term growth
💬 How empathy—especially toward ourselves—can change everything

If you’ve ever felt like you’re constantly behind or beating yourself up for not doing “enough,” this episode is a reminder: trying looks different with ADHD—and your effort counts.
