Be More Penguin: Kind Self-Talk for ADHD

Claire and Laura discuss how ADHD showed up for them this week — from draining hairdresser appointments to the challenges of harsh sensory input and social pressure. They introduce the "Penguin Theory" as a compassionate self-talk strategy, share examples of negative internal dialogue, and explore practical coping tools like observing thoughts, tending to basic needs, and using nature and animals as guides. The episode ends with their "No Shame Zone" commitments: Laura will focus on penguin-style self-talk, while Claire plans to spend time with dogs and nature to stay present and grounded. A free downloadable worksheet is available on their Facebook page.
