Alright, be honestâhow many unfinished projects do you have lying around right now?
The book you swore youâd finish? Still sitting on the shelf.
The laundry you folded? Now part of the furniture.
That hobby you definitely thought would be your new personality? Yeah, that lasted a week.
If this sounds painfully relatable, welcome to the ADHD Half-Finished Club.
In this episode, weâre calling ourselves out for starting things with full enthusiasm⌠and then immediately losing interest.
⢠Why do we do this?
⢠Whatâs actually happening in our brains?
⢠And can we actually trick ourselves into finishing things without hating life?
Grab a drink, settle in, and letâs laugh through the chaos together.
What Youâll Hear in This Episode:
â The ADHD âHalf-Finishedâ Hall of Fame â Books, hobbies, laundry⌠weâre exposing ourselves.
â Why Our Brains Do This â The science behind our shiny new project syndrome.
â How to Actually Finish Things â Simple ADHD-friendly hacks that actually work.
â The Big Takeaway â Youâre not lazy. Youâre not failing. You just need a different approach.
Key Takeaways
⨠Your ADHD brain isnât brokenâit just needs dopamine, urgency, and a little trickery to get things done.
⨠Not everything needs to be finished immediately. Some things can wait. Some things donât actually need finishing at all.
⨠Youâre not alone in this. If you have a house full of half-done tasks, welcome to the club.
Letâs Keep the Conversation Going!
đŹ Whatâs the most ridiculous thing YOUâVE left half-finished?
đŠ DM me on Instagram @whenlifebeginsat40 because I need to hear your stories!

đ¨ Trigger Warning: Discussion of friendship breakups, rejection sensitivity dysphoria (RSD), and toxic friendships.
Friendship should feel safe. It should be easy. You shouldnât have to overthink every text, worry that your bad day will make someone leave, or feel like youâre âtoo muchâ just for existing.
But what happens when a friendship no longer feels like that? What happens when trust is broken, when youâre dismissed, or when you realise that being in someoneâs life is causing you more stress than happiness?
Hereâs the thing: I do not go back to ended friendships. Ever. Not because I hold grudges, but because I hold boundaries. If I canât trust you, if I have to second-guess my place in your life, if youâve shown me that I canât rely on youâthen that door is closed for good.
đŹ In This Episode:
â Why I do not revisit ended friendships (and why thatâs self-protection, not bitterness)
â How rejection sensitivity dysphoria (RSD) makes trust nearly impossible to rebuild
â The emotional toll of friendships where you feel like youâre too much
â That friendship group who speculated about my postpartum depression but never checked in on me
â Why friendship should be drama-free, easy, and accepting of both good and bad days
â Why toxic positivity isnât real support
đĄ Key Takeaways:
⢠If your friend canât take you on your worst day, they are not worth your time on your best day.
⢠You are not âtoo much.â They are simply not enough for you.
⢠Walking away from a friendship that no longer serves you is not cruelâitâs self-respect.

đ¨ Trigger Warning: Mild discussion of money anxiety and decision-making overwhelm.
Ever spent way too long deciding on something simple, only to end up buying nothing? Or spent hours researching an item, panicked after purchasing it, and then convinced yourself you made the wrong choice? Yeah, same.
When you have ADHD, autism, or both, making decisions can feel like an extreme sportâespecially when it comes to big purchases, meal planning, or even choosing what to watch on Netflix. Between executive dysfunction, overthinking, perfectionism, and money anxiety, decision fatigue is a real struggle.
In this episode, Iâm breaking down:
â Why neurodivergent brains struggle with decision-making
â The fear of regret, perfectionism, and why we spiral over âthe right choiceâ
â How money anxiety makes spending feel impossible
â Real-life examples of decision paralysis (yes, Iâm still choosing a toaster)
â Strategies to make decision-making easier when your brain refuses to cooperate
So, if youâve ever felt personally victimised by your own inability to make a decision, this oneâs for you.

đ¨ Trigger Warning: Discussion of autism/ADHD assessments, masking, and experiences of being dismissed by professionals.
You know your child. You know yourself. So why is it that when you try to explain the reality of neurodivergenceâwhether itâs your own or your childâsâso many professionals, teachers, and even family members just⌠donât see it?
This is something Iâm dealing with right now as I prepare for Blakeâs autism assessment. Heâs a high masker, but I see the signs every single dayâhis struggles with sensory sensitivities, transitions, and self-regulation. Yet, I know that in a short clinical setting, professionals may not see the full picture. And that terrifies me.
This episode is for anyone whoâs ever had to fight to be believed, whether for a diagnosis, accommodations, or simply understanding from the people around them.
đŹ In This Episode:
â Why masking makes autism & ADHD so hard to diagnose
â Why professionals often miss the signs of neurodivergence
â The emotional toll of being dismissed or invalidated
â My fears about Blakeâs upcoming autism assessment
â How to advocate for yourself (or your child) when no one is listening

This episode is real, raw, and deeply personal. Today, I sit down with Olivia (@mynewnnormal_), who is currently navigating the Right to Choose (RTC) pathway as she seeks an ADHD diagnosis.
She isnât officially diagnosed yetâsheâs on the waitlistâbut in this conversation, Olivia opens up about exactly what that experience feels like. The doubts, the emotional highs and lows, and the relief of finally feeling like things are making sense.
What makes her journey even more layered? Sheâs also a mum to an autistic child, balancing her own struggles while advocating for him at the same time.
This isnât a clinical, polished discussion. Itâs real life. Itâs messy, unfiltered, and deeply relatable. If youâre on your own path to an ADHD diagnosisâor raising a neurodivergent child while figuring out your own neurodivergenceâyouâll feel right at home in this conversation.
What We Cover in This Episode:
â Oliviaâs journey to self-discovery â When did she first start suspecting she had ADHD?
â The emotional rollercoaster of waiting for an assessment â The self-doubt, the validation, and everything in between.
â The Right to Choose (RTC) pathway â How she accessed it and what the process has been like so far.
â Parenting an autistic child while seeking your own diagnosis â The balancing act, the guilt, and the moments of clarity.
â How sheâs finding life right now â The struggles, the wins, and whatâs helping her get through it all.
â Advice for others in the same boat â What she wishes she knew before starting this process.
Key Takeaways:
⨠Getting diagnosed as an adult is a processâemotionally and practically.
⨠The waiting can feel like limbo, but knowing yourself better is powerful.
⨠Parenting a neurodivergent child while questioning your own neurodivergence is A LOTâbut youâre not alone.
⨠Thereâs no âright wayâ to navigate thisâwhat matters is that youâre taking steps that feel right for you.

For 41 years, I had no idea I was autistic. I just thought life was harder for me than it was for everyone else. I didnât see myself in my sonâs autism diagnosis. But when my daughterâs school told me she was showing autistic traits, I had a moment that changed everythingâsheâs just like me.
And suddenly, my entire life made sense.
This episode is for every late-diagnosed parent who only started questioning their own neurodivergence because of their child. Itâs for those of us parenting kids who are wired like usâthe ones who see our struggles mirrored back in them, the ones trying to break cycles while still figuring ourselves out.
In this episode, I talk about:
⨠The moment I realized I was autistic because of my daughter
⨠The struggles of parenting when you are also neurodivergent

⨠Why, despite the challenges, raising neurodivergent kids as a neurodivergent parent is actually kind of beautiful
