E279: Avoid ADHD Burnout by Slowing Down to Speed Up: 7th Anniversary

Have you ever pushed so hard to finish something… only to realize you're not actually at the finish line?

In this episode, I'm catching you up on life lately, from wrapping up my book to what the last several months have really looked like behind the scenes. Writing over 100,000 words, navigating intense editing, and learning how my brain works best stretched me in ways I didn't expect. And honestly, it was both exciting and exhausting.

We're talking about what happens after a big push, that weird in-between space where you thought you'd feel "done," but instead you feel a little lost. I'm sharing what I learned about perfectionism, pacing, and why celebrating your progress matters way more than we think.

I also open up about slowing down this summer, rethinking what actually matters in this season, and how I'm trying to make life feel easier instead of doing more. Plus, a few personal updates, including a surprising health discovery and what's coming next with the book.

If you've been running on empty or wondering what comes after the sprint, this one will feel like a deep exhale.
