Thanks for an insightful post. Is there a specific episode of the podcast you can recommend? Or just jump in?

I can't vouch for the most recent episodes, as I haven't listened to them yet, and I don't mind those interview ones much. Otherwise most episodes had some insights and ideas, I found noteworthy, which resonated with me - and they are always only a few minutes long, even less when you, like me, increase playback speed to keep focus. Very ADHD friendly. Maybe just don't binge them all at once, but have the individual eps echo a bit.

To start somewhere (going by title here), maybe try those episodes about gotchas and pitfalls (lol, they kind of all are about that, regardless of title; the author knows, we tried all the "hacks" already...), about energy management, "Waiting for Inspiration", or the fresh start ones. I think I also liked the "Five Frameworks to Build Powerful Goals", but that one doesn't really demonstrate what I like about the podcast.

Hope there is something for you too <3

Edit on my original post: Jeez. Sorry for grammar and typos. I thing... I was still very tired. Awful.

Also, maybe report back, if you don't mind. Would love to get a reality check, if it's just another fiction of self-improvement, or if others see the usefulness, as well.
I clicked on a random episode, "Exploring ADHD with Eric Tivers". Couple of things stuck out to me, listening to the dialogue:

1. forgiveness - forgive yourself for not being perfect

2. "do I really have this things". It's good to know I'm not the only one struggling with this.

I'll keep on listening, thanks again for the link.
