Welcome to Season 1: Episode 3
Today on the show, we're taking a peek at the science of dopamine and why it impacts brains with ADHD.
Perhaps you're stuck or feeling in a funk—that's perhaps more than just an emotional state—dopamine could be a contributing element.
I'll talk about how to crack open your own joy, with deliberate intention and design, engaging with activities naturally designed to activate dopamine, in ways that feel true to you and your ADHD needs.
You’ll learn how to build a routine that prioritizes your mental well-being, without guilt, and start embracing self-compassion as part of the process.
It’s time to take control and create your own joy, no cap.
