    (17) Beyond Diagnosis: ADHD, Conditioning (Human Design), & an Impatient World
    Nov 2 2024

    Is it really ADHD, or is it the way society is structured?

    In this episode, we dive into a thought-provoking topic: how societal pressures, constant distractions, and immediate expectations can amplify ADHD symptoms—or even create the illusion of ADHD for some.

    I’ll be exploring how working with women on their deconditioning journey, especially when reconnecting with the archetypal feminine, has shown that ADHD symptoms aren’t always what they appear to be.

    Join me as we discuss why grounding into our authentic selves can transform our experience of ADHD and reveal how much of our struggle may come from societal conditioning rather than our true nature.

    (16) ADHD + HD: Why Do We (ADHD'ers) Quit The Things We Love!?
    Oct 25 2024

    Have you ever felt that surge of frustration when things don’t go right the first time? For those of us with ADHD, low frustration tolerance can be a huge obstacle—one that often leads us to quit things we care deeply about.

    In this episode, we’re diving into why ADHD makes us more likely to walk away when the going gets tough and what we can do to overcome it. From understanding the brain’s response to setbacks to practical strategies for building resilience, this conversation is all about helping you stick with the things that matter, even when frustration hits hard.

    We’ll explore personal stories, science-backed insights, and a few methods to shift how we approach the obstacles that come our way.

    Whether it’s a fitness goal, creative pursuit, or personal passion, we will unpack why ADHD might make it feel harder to keep going and how we can push past those roadblocks. Join me in learning how to reclaim the things we care about, one small step at a time.

  • (15) 4 Phases of the Human Design/ Gene Keys Journey: From Validation to Self-Trust

    (15) 4 Phases of the Human Design/ Gene Keys Journey: From Validation to Self-Trust
    Oct 16 2024

    In this video, we explore the 4 phases I find that we move through once discovering Human Design/ Gene Keys, from feeling deeply validated to becoming fully self-sourced. If you’ve just discovered Human Design, you’ve likely experienced that wave of relief—finally feeling seen and understood.

    But as you go deeper, you may realize that the validation was tied to your Not-Self, leading to a life based on shadow patterns.

    This is where the overthinking begins. Am I following my inner authority, or is it just my mind? Am I being impulsive, or am I truly in alignment?

    In this video, I’ll walk you through each of these phases and explain how my Heart of the Healer program helps you move from overthinking and second-guessing to becoming fully grounded, self-sourced, and aligned with your true purpose.

    If you’re ready to stop the mental tug-of-war and start living as your authentic self, this is the video for you!

  • (14) ADHD + HD: Why Women Are Under-diagnosed and How the Medical Approaches & Spiritual Approaches to Treatment are Failing Us

    (14) ADHD + HD: Why Women Are Under-diagnosed and How the Medical Approaches & Spiritual Approaches to Treatment are Failing Us
    Oct 14 2024
    In this episode, we dive deep into why so many high-performing women with ADHD go underdiagnosed for years—and why the common approaches to managing ADHD often fall short. If you’ve ever felt like you’ve tried everything—whether it’s the medical route with medication and therapy, or the spiritual route with Human Design and energy work—only to still feel stuck, this episode is for you. We’ll explore: •Why women are so often missed in the ADHD diagnosis process and how many of us develop coping strategies that eventually break down. •Why relying solely on the medical model doesn’t address the whole picture, and how it overlooks the deeper energetic and spiritual needs we have as women. •How swinging all the way to the spiritual approach can leave you feeling more burned out, impulsive, and out of alignment than before. •And most importantly, how the both/and approach—combining brain-based strategies with Human Design and Gene Keys—can finally help you find the clarity and balance you’ve been searching for. Join me as I unpack how you can stop choosing between extremes and instead embrace a holistic approach to thrive with ADHD. 👉 Ready for a deeper dive? Sign up for my ADHD + Human Design Foundations Workshop on October 26th & 27th, where we’ll blend practical tools and spiritual insights to help you break free from burnout and live in alignment.

    Oct 10 2024
    In this episode, I share my personal journey with ADHD medication and how it impacted my ability to connect with my Inner Authority in Human Design.

    Oct 10 2024
    There’s a lot of misinformation online suggesting that impulsivity is a superpower for ADHDers, especially for Generators and Manifesting Generators in Human Design.

We’ll explore: •The critical differences between impulsivity and a grounded sacral response •Why impulsivity, especially for ADHDers, can lead to risky behaviors like debt and decision-making without proper thought •How impulsivity is actually reactivity, which keeps Generators and Manifesting Generators out of alignment with their true design •Practical ways to distinguish between an authentic sacral “yes” and impulsive reactivity driven by ADHD If you’ve ever been told that impulsivity is a gift, this episode will help you gain clarity and offer actionable advice to support your decision-making as a Generator or Manifesting Generator living in alignment with your Human Design.

    (10) ADHD + HD: Exploring the Fears, and Anxiety, of the Ajna Centre in Human Design
    Oct 10 2024
    In this episode, we dive into the mental fears of the Ajna Center in Human Design and how they relate to anxiety and ADHD. Anxiety is often misunderstood, and here we explore whether it’s a byproduct of your design, your ADHD, or a mix of both. Spoiler alert, you may be SHOCKED that sometimes what you perceive to be your symptoms are actually "not self" patterns in your design. We’ll cover: •The healthy and unhealthy expressions of the Ajna Center •How to differentiate between ADHD-related anxiety and design-based fears •A deep dive into the individual gates of the Ajna and their influence on your mental state •An exploration of fear as a normal part of life, looking at how each awareness center (Ajna, Spleen, Solar Plexus) holds fear As someone with a background in psychology and years of experience working as a counsellor this topic hits close to home. I’ve also struggled with anxiety myself as an ADHDer, and I’m excited to share insights that will help you navigate these complexities and find clarity.
