Episode 167: Slowing down to help prevent ADHD Burnout
On this week's ADHD Women's Wellbeing 'Wisdom' episode, we revisit a clip from the profound episode with high-performance ADHD Coach Kim Raine about finding equilibrium and balance between our restless ADHD energy, relentless drive, and burnout.
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.
