Finding Your Movement Mojo with ADHD.

Send us Fan MailIn this episode, I sat down to chat with the incredible Dr Jenn Huber as a guest on the Midlife Feast podcast. At 49, I received an ADHD diagnosis after years of masking. In this episode I share how perimenopause brought long-overlooked symptoms into focus.Together, we unpack how midlife hormonal shifts can amplify ADHD traits and why rigid fitness plans rarely work for neurodivergent brains.We also bust the motivation myth and share simple mindset shifts that make movement feel doable, even on low-energy days.You'll learn:Why “consistency” isn’t the gold standard for movement (and what to focus on instead)How ADHD symptoms like overwhelm and emotional dysregulation show up in midlifeWhat it means to move on your terms and why routine doesn’t have to mean rigidHow strength training can start with 10 minutes a weekWhy self-compassion is essential for sustainable habits Key Quotes: "The diagnosis is not the answer... but it is a way of giving myself a little more self-compassion. And leading with that, rather than ‘Why can’t I do what everyone else is doing?’”"It's not about being consistent. It's about being persistent. It’s about getting really good at starting again.""Movement isn’t something we do to punish our bodies. It’s something that can help us feel better, think more clearly, and be kinder to the people around us.""You don’t have to be lifting barbells next week. Start super small. Maybe add in 10 minutes once a week. It all counts."Connect with Jenn on Instagram or join the Midlife Feast Community where you are supported to manage your menopause transition WITHOUT diet and food rules and where I (Christine) support the community with regular strength, pilates and mobility sessions.  Support the showPlease reach out if you would like some support with your relationship to food OR movement.
