Organizing an ADHD Brain Trailer Jan 16, 2024

Show notes

Diagnosed with ADHD at 36, Megs spent most of her life patching things together without understanding why it always felt like she was failing. Learning how her brain actually works changed everything — and discovering rhythms, instead of forcing rigid systems that were never built for a brain like hers, changed it even more. She created this podcast for adults, especially women, diagnosed with ADHD later in life, so they could finally understand what's happening in their brains and build rhythms that work with them instead of against them.

Season one weaves in and out of practical organizing and conversations with experts, while the seasons that follow trace Megs' journey into letting go and organizing the entire body — not just the physical stuff.

Now a certified ADHD coach, Megs has grown the podcast to over 100,000 downloads, with listeners around the world sharing how it's helped them feel seen, understood, and capable of change.
