Monday Morning ADHD Coaching
I'm Emily Weinberg and I'm a certified ADHD coach. I support adults who are feeling stuck, overwhelmed and not in control of their own lives. Unfortunately there are many barriers in the way of making ADHD coaching accessible to everyone and so this podcast is intended to give you, the listener, some of that access. Each episode will provide an inside look at what can happen within a coaching session. I will do this by sharing a summary each week from a session I've had with a client. My hope is that you will not only feel less alone in your own struggles, but that you will also come away with new insights and awareness you can apply to your own life and learn ways you can support your ADHD.

Episode 13: I Should be Able to Manage This (part 2)
This weeks episode is the Part 2 from a session I had with a client who wanted to clean her fridge but was finding herself putting it off day after day. Last episode we uncovered some of the thoughts that were likely keeping her in avoidance, and this week I'll address the "so now what?" part of coaching.
Knowing why you're avoiding something is half the battle. Understanding and validating your reasons for it, doesn't make the thing magically easier to do! So rather than just willing or pressuring ourselves to get going, we have to approach it in a way that actually works for us and sets us up for success.
We will go over which specific executive functions are needed for the task at hand (hint, it's a whole bunch of them) and different strategies she can utilize to support each one.
If you're wanting more practical tips for how to help yourself get started on that thing you've been meaning to do for weeks, months, maybe even years, hopefully this episode will provide you with just that.
