    Jul 27 2024

    Every single person get stuck in their lives at one time or another. That could be in your career or your job or in your personal life at home. We all get stuck from time to time.

    How do we get unstuck?

    Dave's guest today is Britt Frank, a clinician, speaker and the author of the Science of Stuck and the Getting Unstuck Workbook.

    We can get stuck on a decision to do the dishes in our house or making a major career or life decision. Being stuck can show up everywhere.

    Britt discusses the science of being stuck, which she equates to having the emergency brake on in your car. She also discusses the shame many of us feel when we're in stuck mode.

    Britt also discusses the following topics with Dave:

    Procrastination.

    Decision fatigue.

    Intention gaps.

    How to get a micro yes accomplished.

    Why boundaries are related to being stuck.

  • How to navigate a toxic workplace as an adult with ADHD
    Jul 24 2024

    So many of us have had to navigate a chaotic working environment as an adult with ADHD. Some of the workplaces we have had to work in could be classified as toxic.

    Dave discusses how to navigate a chaotic and toxic workplace and tries to reassure you that not everything needs to be blamed on our ADHD.

    Many of us have been working in a culture of chaos, a supervisor, or other colleagues who have a less-than-desirable working style. And for entrepreneurs and those of us who are self-employed, many of us have clients that are difficult to deal with.

    Dave talks about the hazards of working in a toxic workplace such as your mental and physical health.

    He discusses ways to survive and thrive in a chaotic work environment and other things to consider when planning for the future.

  • Time and energy management questions for busy adults with ADHD
    Jul 20 2024

    Preparation is one of the keys to thriving with adult ADHD in a busy setting. And if you are working in a demanding job or career, or you are running your own business with ADHD, planning is mission critical.

    Getting ready for the days ahead can be a game changer as an adult with ADHD. Not being prepared means that we will try to do everything all at once and we know that can't be done. And when that does happen, we procrastinate and end up being less productive and more stressed.

    Dave goes over some key questions to ask yourself each and every day to prepare for the following days ahead of you in your work setting.

    These questions are simple, to the point and even street smart.

    If you've been having trouble getting your day off to a great start, take some time to listen to this short podcast and get the questions to ask yourself every day.
