    Jul 18 2024

    Are you struggling to get things done? Maybe you've internalized society's narratives that you're lazy, irresponsible, and unmotivated. One of the big reasons folks with ADHD struggle with their finances is because they lack the right motivation. In this episode, we dive into the unique ways ADHD affects motivation and explore the four types of motivation that work well for folks with ADHD. You'll learn practical strategies to leverage these motivation types, allowing you to finally follow through on those tasks you've been avoiding.
