Kelsey shares how discovering her ADHD helped explain years of perfectionism, chasing too many goals, and feeling like her brain worked differently than everyone around her. Together they discuss what ADHD can actually look like in women, why so many people miss the signs for years, and how learning to understand your brain can completely change the way you approach goals. If you’ve ever felt scattered, behind, or frustrated trying to keep up with how the world expects you to operate, this conversation will help you see ADHD through a different lens.Chapters(00:00) Introduction(03:17) Why ADHD Looks Different In Women(08:58) Where Should ADHD Creatives Start When They Feel Scattered(11:12) Can You Actually Rewire Your Brain?(14:04) What Manifestation Really Means(17:19) ADHD And Rejection Sensitivity In Creative Careers(21:14) Fear Of Failure And Being Seen Failing(26:48) Medication, Nootropics, And ADHD Treatment(28:05) ADHD Tools That Actually Help With FocusComment below with the Hardest Part of setting Goals with ADHD.
