Welcome back to ADHD Girls' Guide! This week we're throwing open the doors on something we know every ADHD girlie has — the Shame Shed. Whether it's an actual box on top of your wardrobe or a loft full of bamboo straws from a business that never quite launched, we're talking about all the hobbies, projects and hyperfixations we started with absolute fire... and quietly abandoned.From DJ decks and crochet to Bob Ross oil painting, Duolingo guilt-trips and failed lockdown gardens, we're getting into why the ADHD brain is wired for novelty-seeking, what the shame around "not finishing things" is really about, and how to actually make peace with it.We also talk about body doubling, breaking the honeymoon phase, and why not everything needs to be monetised — sometimes a hobby is just allowed to be a hobby.In this episode:Our most chaotic "shame shed" confessionsWhy ADHD brains hyperfocus, then drop things — and what's actually going onThe lockdown hobby spiral we all went throughHow to tell the difference between a hyperfixation and something worth sticking toBuilding structure to survive past the honeymoon phaseWhy starting things is actually really braveHonest, chaotic and (hopefully) a little healing.
