ADHD Tools For Busy Leaders Who Feel Scattered
From The Insurance Marketing Playbook · 22:38
Show by Shelby McFarland
“Stop punishing yourself for what you should have done.” That one line can crack open the whole spiral, especially when you’re trying to lead a business, manage a team, raise kids, or simply keep your life moving while your brain feels scattered.We sit down with Leia Morshedi, an adult ADHD executive function strategist who coaches executives, entrepreneurs, and teams on how to work with their brains instead of against them. We talk about why ADHD symptoms can feel so common right now, how short-form media, sleep loss, and constant stress add cognitive load, and what that overload does to planning, focus, and emotional regulation. Then we dig into the “shame dial” that turns “I should’ve already done this” into avoidance, and how to interrupt that cycle with tools that are simple, not simplistic.You’ll hear a practical reframe we love: the daily search for wins. Not big, performative wins, real-life wins like pausing before you snap, getting two of your “big three” done, or taking a short walk instead of aiming for a perfect workout. We also get specific about affirmations that don’t backfire, how to make them believable, and why letting go of old standards (including the ones your parents handed you) can reduce overwhelm and resentment fast.If you’re craving more focus, better follow-through, and a calmer brain, hit play, share this with a friend who’s stuck in “should,” and then subscribe and leave a review so more people can find these ADHD-friendly strategies.
