NEURO HAPPY

In today’s episode, we’re joined by the incredible Alice Reeves, founder of Joyfully Different — a business dedicated to helping neurodivergent individuals create systems that actually work for them (not against them 🙌).Alice shares her personal journey of struggle and triumph, starting with the massive burnout she experienced during the pandemic when her business unexpectedly tripled. While the excitement of growing a business should have been thrilling, Alice found herself without an outlet for all the energy she was taking on from others. This led to a breakdown that resulted in an ADHD diagnosis, ultimately pushing her to rethink and create a work-life structure that truly worked for her. 🌈Her story doesn’t end there. As a teen, Alice was diagnosed with an eating disorder, but later discovered it was actually undiagnosed OCD, ADHD, and autistic traits that had been converging all along. Through her journey, she sought help from a trauma coach, who guided her in regulating her nervous system. Today, she can recognize her triggers and respond with kindness and love — practices she now uses to support neurodivergent clients in creating tailored systems to thrive. 💖✨Join us as Alice takes us through how she transformed her personal struggles into a thriving business and shares her insights on how neurodivergent individuals can find work-life balance and success on their own terms. 💼🌟Key Takeaways:Alice’s journey from burnout to building Joyfully Different 🚀How undiagnosed ADHD, autism, and OCD shaped her personal and professional life 🧠The power of body awareness and nervous system regulation in creating sustainable work habits 💆‍♀️How neurodivergent people can design systems that align with their unique needs 🛠️The role of love, kindness, and self-compassion in responding to emotional triggers 💖Tune in for an inspiring, heartwarming conversation that blends personal stories, practical tips, and actionable advice for anyone navigating neurodivergence in work and life! 🎧Resources:Alice’s Business: www.joyfullydifferent.co 🌟📧 [email protected] 🎉 Join the Joyfully Different community 📱 Instagram |LinkedInKatie Stibbs's Business: www.neurohappy.life  : Practical tools  & Coaching to Get You Out Of Your Head, Learning How To Regulate Your emotions and calm your nervous system You will learn to identify & unhook from unhelpful thoughts and beliefs- & learn somatic techniques to calm the body and clear the unconscious blocks holding you back.

🌈 About This Season:This series is all about changing the outdated, unhelpful narrative that being neurodivergent is a problem. We’re speaking with people in Sussex who are neurodivergent — and those who live or work alongside them — to show that difference is not deficiency. It’s diversity. And it’s powerful.🧠 Episode Summary:In this feel-good, thought-provoking episode, we chat with Lucy Egan — Zumba teacher, Hyrox world silver medallist, mum of three, and co-director of Hove Fitness Club.Lucy might not identify as neurodivergent, but her story — and the way she works with her team — is a brilliant example of what can happen when different brains collaborate without competition. Her two fellow directors have what some might call “ADHD-style” creativity — bursting with vision, energy, and ideas. Lucy brings structure, consistency, and follow-through. Together, they’ve built something truly impactful.We explore what it’s like to be the one who gets things done in a world of big ideas — and how all brains, all ways of being, bring something essential to the table.🔥 In this episode, we talk about:What makes a dream team (and why it's not about being the same)How Lucy balances her superstructured, high-energy mind with others’ more spontaneous brainsThe power of movement for emotional wellbeing (for any nervous system)Why collaboration between different brain types is the secret sauce in businessWhat joy, rhythm, and consistency can teach us about happiness💥 Why this episode matters:Neurodiversity isn’t a problem to be fixed — and neurotypical brains aren’t the gold standard. Every way of thinking brings gifts. This episode shows what’s possible when we stop judging difference and start valuing collaboration.🎧 Listen if:You’ve ever felt “too chaotic” or “too controlling” in work relationshipsYou want to better understand the unspoken strengths in your team or familyYou’re a neurodivergent person navigating work with neurotypical folks — or vice versaYou just want to hear a joyful, grounded story about collaboration and movement📣 Guest Links: Lucy EganHove Fitness Club✨ Stay Connected:      Follow Katie & Daisy      Join the movement      Neurohappy.life  Katie helps people regulate their nervous systems- so they              can stay calm experience inner peace and live happily- working with their                  whole system mind/body- using mind inquiry - dissolving unconscious beliefs.        breath, emotion work and guided meditative process     Breathwithdaisy Daisy helps people literally breathe properly so they can                   experience the power of breath can transform the way people live, providing a         gateway to inner peace and renewed energy

We all know about breathing right? I mean of course we do.But we really don't.As breath is fundamental beginning  as part of the framework that I work with, withclients that want to really change the way they live and work, I opened the first page of the book Breath, The New Science Of A Lost Art, thinking I kind of knew a lot about breath.This book has blown my mind, and I dedicate this podcast to the essence of why it's so powerful.What many ancient civilizations had known for centuries was backed with research and science. The discovery of simply nose breathing and why will blow your mind toThe art of breath affects everything including the ability to reverse ADHDReverse asthma, allergies, scoliosis and much much more.Change your breath and you change your mood your chemistry your physiologyOur evolution has changed the shape of our skulls our airways nasal cavities, our mouths have become smaller and our brains bigger. Add to that the change to eating processed food which has put an end to chewing has culminated in massive problems insomnia and sleep apnea, BUT this can all be reversed by nose breathing. I would love to know your thoughts and experiences of reading this bookYou will never breathe in the same way again.https://www.mrjamesnestor.com/find me at www.katiestibbs,com.

A love note to you. Ambitious woman with a brilliant scattered mindThat many women around the planet are ruminating overthinking and second-guessing themselves, we are human and we welcome all the things the good the bad and the in-between.And, we can work on these habits (and conditioning sometimes decades old)as they do not serve us they hold us back from being who we truly are at a deep core level.A reminder that nostalgia can bring us joy, and of course can be bittersweet.A beautiful surprise encounter with an old friend reminded me of this this recently, of the connection with our past and how powerful it can be.Memories can provide us the opportunity to heal and accept ourselves, from a more mature standpoint.I invite you to revisit your timeline and bring love and acceptance to the experiences relationships and feelings that might benefit from your attentionThe more we acknowledge the parts of ourselves we want to keep hidden the more we can build the resources and courage to be our bold badass selves!!!And together we riseI love you

Creating a safe relationship is vitally important when ADHD is added to the mix of romantic partnerships. Often couples have not realized that there are reasons for certain habits, behavior, and ongoing problems that have been exacerbated by ADHD.ADHD brains need praise acceptance and empathy. The years of constant criticism take their toll, but for the non-ADHD partner to understand this and then be able to give praise for the smallest attempt at changing habits like picking the socks off the floor can have such huge positive effects. These small, seemingly unimportant changes create an environment of safety support and warmth and couples can really begin to thrive.When the ADHD partner can also begin to look at their lifelong behaviors and actions and emotions and now attribute many of them to ADHD, they can also begin to see how they work together with their partner to create this warm loving relationship again.

A deep dive with an incredible woman, who has dedicated her life to helping others. Working as a nurse on the oncology ward as well as a specialist Macmillan nurse. We talk about the superpowers of her intuitive knowledge about her patient's wellbeing, her ability to really look after herself, and know when massive self-care is needed. How here friendships and family have taught her so much about the grief and also enlightenment that comes with understanding so late in life that she has suspected ADHD.We talk about how ADHD can be a real asset as a medical professional, there are many doctors and consultants, and nurses whose brain chemistry is perfect for crisis situations and for the variety and people skills that help them excel in their field and we explore how getting someone whos zone of genuis is administarion to support people would be incredibly liberating.We discuss managing young children and the shame of not having an immaculate house and how all these years later the feelings are so readily felt, and why ADHD brings with it a certain humility that should mean that the people that have it can be perfect leaders for the world.Please get in touch I love to hear from you, it makes my heart sing that we are changing the way people perceive ADHD and that we can really see what's possible for ourselves with new awareness find me at [email protected] for the accompanying guide

I talk about our power of intuition, six sense gut instinct as an ADHD Woman. I explore how we are able to develop the skill, and how it can be extremely useful in navigating what is best for us and understanding that if we don't use our energy wisely we can burn out very quickly.The question is are you using your interpersonal intuition as an advantage in your own life or is it something that can be developed even further?Have you lost trust in yourself in this area, when you get the nudges or goosebumps are you paying attention?I explore the feminine wound, how even the seemingly most confident of women can be totally derailed by imposter syndrome and it is totally understandable as in years gone by we could have been burned at the stake for speaking our truth and standing up to be counted.It is our responsibility to accept the fear and still do the thing, we must not let it hold us back.Please let me know what topics you would like me to explore? you can reach me at [email protected] and insta @ambitious.audacious.adhdwomenPlease download the accompanying strategy guide at https://linktr.ee/katiestibbsRemember we drop the shame and accept our many strengths we can do anything we put our minds to.
