26:01 Personal Transformation Through Regulation WorkSummary
Today we are exploring the difference between fear-based and desire-based motivation, highlighting being in fight or flight (motivated by fear) can lead to a cycle of stress and burnout. I encourage you to recognize your resistance to change and the impact of being in a dysregulated state on your ability to connect with others and enjoy life (isn't that the whole point!?)
Takeaways
Regulation work provides the freedom to choose our behaviors. Fear-based motivators can lead to burnout and are not sustainable. Desire-based motivators are gentler and more effective long-term. Being in a dysregulated state consumes a lot of energy. Connection with others is hindered when in fight or flight mode. Enjoying life is difficult when focused on survival. It's important to challenge beliefs that keep us stuck.Connect with Jenna

Summary
Hi! I'm Jenna Free, therapist for ADHD with ADHD here to share a transformative perspective on ADHD, emphasizing the importance of understanding that we have ADHD but we are also in fight or flight and that is the true problem. I discuss the concept of dysregulation and how ADHDers often find themselves in a chronic state of fight or flight, which can lead to feelings of overwhelm and paralysis. I am here to advocate for deeper internal work to achieve regulation and balance, moving away from superficial coping strategies. Today I am sharing my unique approach - learning the philosophy of The ADHD Reset is vital in living well with ADHD. From here we will talk about how to implement this in your life and beyond.
Takeaways
ADHD should be viewed as a brain difference, not a problem. Many (all?) ADHDers experience chronic dysregulation and fight or flight. Superficial coping strategies are not enough for true transformation. Awareness of dysregulation is the first step to change. Regulation allows for a more relaxed and sustainable way of living. Fear and shame can fuel short bursts of energy but are not sustainable. Finding balance is key to managing ADHD symptoms effectively. The journey to regulation involves internal work and acceptance. Enjoyment of life should be the ultimate goal, not just productivity. Transformation is possible with the right approach and mindset.Connect with Jenna
