Episode 115: Learning how to slow down to prevent ADHD Burnout - ADHD Women's Wellbeing Wisdom

This week, we are revisiting a clip from the profound episode with high-performance ADHD Coach Kim Raine about finding a balance between our restless energy, relentless drive and hitting burnout. Kim is also the author of Square Pegs - A Book Of Self-Discovery For Women With ADHD.

As women with ADHD, we have an abundance of ideas, but thriving in business can feel difficult if we work against ourselves. By taking time to rest and make space while being consciously aware of where our energy and creativity levels are, we can be more successful and focused in our careers alongside ADHD.
