305 Boredom is the Price of Success—Are You Willing to Pay It?

In this solo episode of the I Have ADHD podcast, we’re covering a little bit of everything—because, let’s be honest, ADHD brains thrive on variety!First up: BOREDOM. Ugh. It’s uncomfortable, frustrating, and makes us want to do literally anything else. But here’s the hard truth—boredom is the price we pay to get what we want out of life. If we want success, fulfillment, and progress toward our goals, we have to learn to sit with the discomfort instead of running from it. I break down exactly how to do that without self-sabotaging.Next up: romantic relationships. I answer a listener question about relationships and dive into how to navigate an ADHD + Neurotypical pairing. Finally, let’s talk movement. We all know exercise is good for us, but did you know it can actually boost your brainpower? I break down a fascinating new study that shows just 30 minutes of exercise can significantly improve cognition for adults with ADHD. Yep, moving your body isn’t just great for managing emotions—it can actually help you think more clearly, focus better, and get stuff done. Tune in to find out why this works and how to make it a part of your routine (even if motivation is a struggle).If you're ready for a mix of tough love, insight, and encouragement, hit play—this one’s for you!Raising Kids, Raising Yourself: The Empowered ADHD Parenting CourseWant help with your ADHD?
