Iron is key for dopamine production & in turn the smooth running of our ADHD brains. It supports motivation & attention, whilst easing restlessness.

🫢 Honestly, September is tough & as an ADHD coach & Autism mentor I hold it. 🫢. It is my greatest priviledge to be a story keeper but that also means I can't shield from us from realities.

Today I am being real. Sending love wherever it is needed.

🫑 How I protect my peace 🫑 as an ADHDer & Life Coach. Love to hear some ideas you might add to this list?

1. My coaching bookings are all held in an online system, what it says goes - no admin for me.
2. I have a real full day off a week & I don't tell everyone what day that is!
3. School drop off & pick up is sacred & I build space around this to avoid rushing.
4. Special work projects have a night to stay in a hotel nearby built in or I don't do it.
5. Emails NEVER get looked at or answered on weekends.
6. My phone has been on silent for 10 years, this may be harder for others πŸ˜…, my husband hates it!
7. I have a set number of coachees I see in person or on screen a day to protect my energy.
8. I don't allow Whatapp for work, I respond only by email to hold myself accountable.
9. I NEVER EVER skip a meal. If you see me in your driveway eating, give me space!
10. When in doubt move, if boundaries are slipping, move.

🫢 As ADHDers our drive for autonomy is strong, especially leaving school. Whilst many choose to get straight into the working world for others uni is the chance to regroup & explore another possiblities.

Maybe, most importantly, it is their chance to make decisions without us. To explore choices, make wrong turns, pick themselves up & realise their own potential. By distancing ourselves their can see more clearly when they need us.

Sending love to all those, especially my wonderful coachees, on this next life journey.

Let me know how it goes?

🫣 ADHD relationships with food πŸ€” often swing in one of two directions due to interoceptive & stimulation seeking differences. It makes it easier for us to miss or misread hunger cues.

Which one are you?? Or do you sometime swing from one to the other?!

It's pretty onbvious I am the latter πŸ˜…, always thinking about food BUT especially when I work from home! This can be for a range of reasoms which all revolve around dopamine seeking - boredom, feelings, procrastination, task initiation...in all these food forms a prompt. When we are dysregulated we might also eat our feelings?

πŸπŸ‚ Autistic joy is very special, but from childhood I kept it under wraps, to avoid appearing like I was misreading a situation or making a big thing when others saw nothing.

Autumn is my favourite season, and my daughters middle name, so I will be finding vast amounts of joy picking blackberries & apples for the foreseeable.

I now know Autistic joy brings so much pleasure for others. My husband smiles the most at seeing my face light up over the smallest things. This is your prompt to share your joy or share in anothers ❀️.

πŸ‹β€β™€οΈ ADHD & ExerciseπŸ‹ whoose with me?? πŸ™Œ πŸ™Œ.

Can we agree to move this weekend in a way that is not forced, is not because we know it boosts dopamine & is not monitored by steps.

Let's just allow ourselves to move because it is in a natures to do so, in wahs that feel intuitive, not forced. In ways that challenge if it speaks to you or softly if that feels right this weekend.

Exercise is NOT something on a to do list. If this happens it will become another pressure for a depleted neurodivergent nervois system to need to find capacity for.
