ADHD Friendly Lifestyle

Moira Maybin is opening up about life with late-diagnosed ADHD, a mom of children with ADHD, and her knowledge gained as an educator and advocate for people with ADHD. Life was completely overwhelming until learned she had ADHD, she kept trying harder, with increasing problems in her self-care, physical and mental health. She’s re-shaped her life completely for a better fit, based on current research—and necessity, after falling off a cliff in 2018. On the ADHD Friendly Lifestyle, you can expect humor, stories, information, and support to help you to do the same. Have a question or topic you’d like answered on a future podcast?

50: the one about talking so a doctor will listen Feb 23, 2023

“A weird trick to get doctors to listen to you,” by journalist Carolyn Liddell caught Moira’s eye when she was considering how to successfully raise another medical concern. People with ADHD are at higher risk of gaslighting and not receiving adequate medical support. Moira shares her journey with multiple health conditions & self-advocacy. When we can figure out what might be wrong, how do we bring it up to our doctors without offending them and be heard?

49: the one about starting Feb 16, 2023

Moira is continuing the series on getting things done--starting can be hard. When creating a schedule or trying to build habits isn't working, maybe it's time to consider expanding our repertoire to include comfortable and workable options to get to the starting line, ways to start, ease in, and be ready for potential roadblocks.

48: the one about setting the stage Feb 09, 2023

It's so easy when we have ADHD to skip, jump ahead, forget or avoid any stages needed to get something done. So, we're not spending any time on what happens then! Instead, we are returning to some unfinished business from Episodes 40 and 41 to look at how preparation can help. When we set the stage for success, we consider including preparation in ways we like to increase our ease, ability and happiness.

Today we’re considering what it means to be effective. There’s more to it than knowing the time and wanting to get things done. Energy and attention along with mindsets and previous experiences are involved leading to some thoughtful questions about how effective we want to be.

46: the one about getting real with time Jan 26, 2023

It’s true: ADHD significantly impacts our ability to care for our needs and responsibilities and to do so on time. Today we’re talking about how to get out of that bind. Life feels lighter when we are more accurate about how long things take and what is possible in a day. Getting real with time includes questioning what doesn’t work with typical advice, how it can lower stress and overwhelm, and allow more of you in your day. It’s time to experiment with what works for us to end the fight with time.

45: the one about time awareness Jan 19, 2023

How do we struggle with time? Let’s count the ways. Today we are talking about not knowing where it goes, being surprised by the time and some small steps to increase our time awareness. This includes sharing Moira’s struggle to see and accept limitations such as 24 hours in a day, and things we can do to make time awareness easier by continuing our series on ADHD & Time, following ep. 44, the one about time blindness.

Does time work for or against you? Is there never enough? Are you in a race against time? Does it drag so slowly that it impacts your actions and mood? What do others say about you and time? Today we are discussing why time is slippery with ADHD, living in now/not now, and how to start getting time on our side.

42: the one about doing my best May 12, 2022

Moira has an impromptu end of season 1 message for you. Not getting to a softball game on time, so many thoughts, feelings, and unrealistic expectations, and how that connects to ADHD, time management, and podcasting, are all fair game today. Moira needed to take a moment, take stock, have a reality check, get honest, be compassionate, and come up with a plan to continue with her day. That’s not even all of it—it was a busy 9 minutes!

41: The one about an insider's guide Apr 21, 2022

To experience less wear and tear in our lives, creating an insider’s guide helps to manage our limited resources—time, energy, and capacity to have them for what we value. With ADHD it's also easy to forget hard-won insight and knowledge, a personalized insiders' guide captures that. Moira shares breaking down what needs to be done, and having what needs to be on hand—to really do the things. Not sure if you are ready for that? She covers what to do if you are dipping your toe into the waters or are on a deep dive like her—when we have ADHD one size does not fit all.

40: the one about slowing down to speed up Apr 07, 2022

Getting started, continuing, and finishing are more complex with ADHD. Time and energy are limited supplies too. Trying harder or giving up aren't the only solutions. Slowing down to speed up has short- and long-term benefits. Continuing her progress with one particularly hard task, Moira discusses reducing effort and stress levels by creating ADHD friendly routines we like and work for us. Slowing down (and not refilling it with something else) creates capacity, effort, and time to develop our methods, then we speed up. Not by wiping the slate clean but by drawing from many convenient resources.

39: the one about hurdles Mar 31, 2022

Expect delays. Time blindness, resistance, procrastination, perfectionism, and indecision are hurdles that can cause slowdowns, stumbles, or create roadblocks. It’s even harder when we don’t see them. Tired of stumbling between hurdles and roadblocks Moira shares how she’s easing the discomfort just enough to make it easier to lower or clear the hurdles.

38: the one about being consistently inconsistent Mar 17, 2022

Moira’s talking about ways to see and measure growth when it’s hard to notice or even recognize. With ADHD one thing we can consistently count on is inconsistency. That doesn’t have to be a bad thing. Two steps forward and one step back is still forward. It does take us in the direction we want to go. Moira once again lets us into her life sharing a brief writing activity, her ADHD metaphor—a horse named Mabel and taking an ADHD friendly approach to change (aka an inconsistent one) that surprisingly, made a big difference. It has made it easier to spot unhelpful tendencies, improved her self-awareness, acceptance, and confidence in herself and her growth. All while still consistently finding humor in her consistently inconsistent ADHD.

37: the one about a dopa menu Mar 10, 2022

If ADHD is more about losing interest and motivation than it is about attention and concentration what does that mean for living with ADHD? Everyone uses dopamine for motivation, experiencing pleasures and rewards, but it works differently in ADHD brains. Understanding our dopamine differences and what our options are can help us on one level--to feel good and have more fun, on another it could be life-changing to be able to know what to do when we need more dopamine to get and stay motivated or ways to deal with being overstimulated. We are going to explore the idea of a dopa menu, popularized by Jessica McCabe of How to ADHD. Moira shares extra tips, ideas, and strategies for creating your own dopa menu.

36: the one about our eating disorders and ADHD Mar 03, 2022

Content warning: This episode contains discussions of eating disorders; listener discretion is advised if you feel that listening may aggravate your suffering or complicate your recovery. Discuss with your support system as necessary. Moira has struggled with her relationship with food and her body for close to 50 years, only learning she had binge eating disorder after her ADHD diagnosis. Megan’s eating disorder was recognized first, as a teenager, and her ADHD diagnosis came in 2021. Both women know we do not need to suffer endlessly anymore and there is a path to recovery. ADHD contributes to disordered eating and obesity and getting help for any of this means understanding our experiences and having ways to get the help we deserve.

Two women with ADHD, thirty years apart in age, squeeze in as many things about living with ADHD as they can. Similarities and differences in their experiences--including school, video games, being outdoors, bars, drinking, horrendous toilets, and why ADHD would be better known as a dopamine dysregulation disorder. All in all, it's young adults like Megan and changes Moira can already see that give her hope for a better future for all of us.

34: the one about being a mom with ADHD Feb 10, 2022

Today we are talking about why parenting with ADHD is hard, especially for moms, ways to consider taking fewer rides on that struggle bus. We can’t care for others if we are spent. If we want to parent well, then we need to know how to care for ourselves. Moira discusses what helped with how, when, and where things were hard for her that led to taking better care of herself and her family. She also reminds those who aren’t tired, exhausted parents what we can do to help all of us suffer less.

32: the one about ups and downs Jan 20, 2022

ADHD symptoms can go up and down over time. That matches my experience, how about yours? That idea is now backed by research showing that we can have good years when our ADHD symptoms are manageable, or maybe not even apparent and in the difficult years, ADHD shows up significantly causing problems at school, work, or in relationships. Today we are exploring how we can use that information to help ourselves, and our medical providers, in both the ups and downs. We will also share 6 guiding questions that help us feel and do our best .

the one about compassion Dec 30, 2021

Hi, I’m taking a little time off and will be back with new episodes in January. I’m sharing an episode from the archive that builds upon the latest episodes. Today we’re discussing how self-compassion improves our ability to get started, deal with challenges, keep going and get along with others. We’ll be talking about proven strategies, and ideas. They won’t prevent us from making mistakes, but when we do, and we treat ourselves with compassion, the cost is not as high-- because yup, Self-compassion also reduces stress, self-criticism, and makes our life more ADHD Friendly.

While many of us have realized that we must know how to take care of ourselves and our ADHD, there can be a tendency still to believe that we’re the problem or if only we could do this or that things would be better. But what if we can’t? Even if another younger version of us could? Our biggest consistency is often inconsistency and if we want to show up as our best versions of ourselves, it starts with self-compassion.

The one about shame Dec 23, 2021

Hey folks, I'm going to be taking a little time off in December and I thought that I'd reshare a few episodes from the archives. Today we're going to be returning to an idea that has been a reoccurring theme in the last few episodes—how to change things up that are no longer serving us.
We’re talking about how to manage shame, shame spirals, and considering ways that can reduce our sense of shame. We’re unpacking how we manage and what we say to ourselves when we are wanting, hoping, or waiting for things to be different. We're also going to be considering how we can be a little bit kinder to ourselves, and a few ideas on how to move towards the life we want.

2021 is not going away quietly—it wants to give 2020 a run for the money. In need of some optimism, Moira talks about things big and small we can be proud of, ways to regain trust in our own judgment and use that to help make sense of our lives. She found some sneaky patterns that she plans to leave in 2021 and shares what support she is relying on too.

29: the one about time & energy Dec 09, 2021

Time and energy are limited resources that many of us struggle with, especially when we have ADHD--they can seem elusive and slippery, never quite under our control. We can understand how we experience both, how it matters for our day-to-day life, and consider some ideas to try for a more ADHD friendly life.

28: the one about winter Dec 02, 2021

The last two years have been challenging for all of us, and getting through December can be hard when we live in a world that goes on 24/7. We often forget that human beings deserve care and rest, to be able to thrive and not just push through. What if there was a way to try differently instead of harder? Moira's spent many years thinking about this and observing what goes on around her at this time of year and has tried many, many coping strategies including house and petting sitting. This year she found the words of Brigit Anna McNeill combined with the artwork of Jessica Boehman that captures a heartwarming way to experience winter--and Caring Week if you are so inclined.

Moira and Coach Natalie Stark cover a lot of ground in this episode! How the word queer is important for many reasons, how not living and living in a van were both ways to have an ADHDFL (friendly life), the importance of access to treatment for ADHD, and why Natalie credits going to the hospital and therapy with saving herself from suicidal ideation and coaching with feeling worthy of building a life that she wants to live.

25: the one about paying the cost upfront Oct 28, 2021

We can’t have an ADHDFL when we’re running on empty, it requires capacity and breaking the cycles we get into. One way? Paying the ADHD tax upfront, on what we want to.
When you have ADHD we quickly learn that help or understanding of our challenges isn’t always easy to get. Sometimes the way forward is to know how to give ourselves what we need, to have a more satisfying life. With knowledge comes power and when we feel empowered it makes it easier to be curious about trying different. Moira opens up about how she’s built skills to forgive herself, communicate more directly, advocate, and have a baseline of daily things to help get through the day.

24: The one about trusting ourselves Oct 21, 2021

Moira shares experiences and examples from the last three years, including healing from a brain injury, about how we can rebuild trust in ourselves by using our own lived experiences to make decisions in our own best interests (she may have shot herself in the foot a few times in the past). She discusses ways to build an ADHD Friendly Lifestyle using both our strengths and challenges to help create a world that works for, not against us, tossing us a few reminders along the way about what we can do when (not if!) we forget to do the things.

This episode is a bit different, Moira didn't come up with any of it.

If you ever wanted one episode or document to share with someone, a loved one, a medical professional, anyone about how and why Women and Girls with ADHD deserve better, and how to go about it, this is it.

22: the one about (un)expected change Sep 30, 2021

Change is coming, whether we like it or not! If you thought ADHD was running the show, it ain't got nothing on our hormones but it doesn’t have to be chaos all round. It turns out it’s not so mysterious or unpredictable, even in perimenopause. Moira shares in detail the process she used to better understand her daily experiences—moods, energy, medication side effects, and both her ADHD and menstrual symptoms and then what might be done with that self-understanding. Her first step was to do nothing. The goal is to increase life satisfaction and taking a few steps at a time, with any changes being ones that fit for you.

The stress of constantly expecting criticism, feeling ashamed, frantic, and being unable to explain why our brain won't listen to us can become the narrative in our lives that drowns out everything else. ADHD remains under-recognized, misunderstood, and mistreated—especially in women. Today we’re talking about common misperceptions and the ways ADHD can present differently in women.

14 The one about being authentic Jun 24, 2021

Living a more ADHD friendly lifestyle is a journey towards being genuinely ourselves in a way that is truly fulfilling. We can be smart, talented, and successful in some ways, and struggle greatly in others. We can experiment with the version of us who shows up in different situations and be curious about the messages around us. Having a community of people who support, understand, and accept ADHD, lowers our stress level and shame, can serve as a mirror, and helps grow our acceptance.

How easy is it to unapologetically do the things or create a life that works for you? Hard to do when we are beating ourselves up or trying to fit into other people's expectations. Being authentic requires self-acceptance and self-compassion. Moira shares how she's struggled including losing it, waiting, shame spirals, perfectionism, and changing things up. When things go awry, let's try asking, "what happened?" instead of "what's wrong?" and see where it gets us. She covers a number of ADHD friendly ways that have helped and what we can do knowing that it is WHEN (not if) we forget all of this.

12 Coaches Corner Outtakes with Roxie Martin Jun 07, 2021

The outtakes were so good, I couldn’t leave them out. Just like your favorite show’s outtake reel, these pieces may seem a bit more disjointed than a regular episode, I’ll use musical cues for when we switch topics. We start off lightly sharing our struggles with the question, “how are you?”, and then Roxie goes deep sharing how learning at 12 yo her father was black called into question her identity and ultimately helped her find pride. Then Roxie puts me into the hot seat asking me a few questions too. You might be able to tell when I become very passionate about one of my favorite things.

8: The 1st one about compassion May 13, 2021

Self-compassion and ADHD don’t always come together easily BUT treating ourselves better, when we have ADHD, improves motivation, problem-solving, persistence, and getting along with others. There are proven ideas, actions, and strategies just for people with ADHD whose biggest consistency may be inconsistency, will make mistakes, and are more than likely listening to this with a heavy dose of skepticism. Self-compassion helps with stress, self-criticism, and living with an ADHD brain.

6: The one about acceptance Apr 29, 2021

We are talking about why and how we can develop acceptance and how that will help us make changes to have the life we want. Our challenges with ADHD can feel front and center in our lives, almost like it is running the show. We try treatment with medications, strategies, and behavior changes. yet very few of us feel we are making enough or lasting change. How can we change that? It takes understanding and accepting our brains as they are. Instead of trying to fix ourselves, what about learning how to be ourselves in a way that works, for us?

Moira unpacks how, despite appearing highly capable, her traits of leadership, organization, helping, intelligence, and high expectations were all used to hide her struggles with ADHD. Moira speaks honestly about her most common struggles and no longer trying to hide them and giving up self-blame and judgment to make room for a better life with ADHD. Expanding the conversation about how ADHD is experienced is important because incorrect or limiting beliefs about ADHD impact our chance of a correct diagnosis, treatment, and quality of life.

3: The first one about hormones Apr 07, 2021

It is not well known that female reproductive hormones play a big role in our ADHD and overall health. They can make ADHD worse some days and better on others, because our symptoms vary across our cycle and stage of life dependent on the hormone levels. For those of us with ovaries, our ADHD is a changing state; and that’s still very new information for many. If we don't know what happens in our brains and bodies, how are we supposed to deal with it? Learn about ways we can help ourselves to slow or stop that rollercoaster ride. There are also treatment considerations for ADHD and hormones. We need to be able to talk to our health care providers about this and be able to ask for what we need.

2: The one about the list Apr 07, 2021

ADHD can leave us deflated, desperate, just trying to hold on, or maybe even clinging to a life preserver for dear life. This impacts so many aspects of our lives especially when we continue to put everyone and everything else above our own needs. Taking care of ourselves is hard to do and is even harder when you are not even on the list. How do we get ourselves on it, and not be the first thing bumped? Self-care is vital to our health and well-being and IS NOT SELFISH. When we have ADHD, our capacity to function, lifespan, and dare we say it, even our ability to enjoy life, depends on swapping out that life preserver to put on our oxygen mask first.

1: Is it Just Me? Apr 07, 2021

Moira Maybin is building an ADHD Friendly Lifestyle and wondering, is it just her? Is it? Or are her experiences as someone with ADHD who was late diagnosed, has combined type and is female been anything like yours? Do you know how to have an ADHD Friendly Lifestyle?

Today’s episode includes stories from growing up undiagnosed, how ADHD impacts our health and well-being as adults, mothers, and including girls who are easily missed. We share some ideas to tweak daily tasks and introduce the background ideas for how to build and maintain an ADHD Friendly Lifestyle. There is so much research-based information that can help, that isn’t common knowledge, and it starts here!
