Hey there, it's Jen! Thanks for tuning in today. I'm really stoked to dive into how chronic stress worsens ADHD symptoms and what actionable steps we can take to tackle it head-on. If you've ever felt that overwhelming sense of burnout or found yourself unable to muster the motivation to tackle your to-do list, then this conversation is tailor-made for you. Let's jump right in!

 

Chronic stress is a biggie, especially for us entrepreneurs juggling a million things at once. It's like our nervous system can't differentiate between a life-threatening situation and just another overwhelming project on our plate. So, today, I want to break down what exactly burnout and chronic stress entail and how they exacerbate ADHD symptoms. We'll also touch on some sneaky signs of chronic stress, like poor sleep or low motivation, and explore practical strategies to regulate our nervous systems. Plus, I'll share insights on shifting our mindset around stress and the importance of using precise language to describe our experiences. So, buckle up, because we're about to unpack a whole lot in this episode!
