My name is Donae Cannon- I'm an occupational therapist, a certified coach, a parent of more than one child with ADHD, and I have ADHD. I've been learning about ADHD for a while now, and I'm still learning new things. Welcome to the Crash Course- let's dive in...

There are times that our emotions are so strong that we struggle to identifyexactly what we're feeling.
There's a surprisingly simple technique that can help us understand our more complicated emotions, and in doing so, develop the skills we need to regulate these emotions!Today we'll look at how to use the feelings wheel that was developed by Dr. Gloria Wilcox. This simple tool can help us label our more complicated emotions, regulate emotionally, and better communicate about our emotions with others.
We'll also explore a related approach from Dr. Daniel Siegel; his "name it to tame it" model, and learn how just identifying/ labeling our emotions can serve as a powerful tool in regulating them!

Imposter syndrome can make us feel like our wins are more luck than due to our skills or abilities. Even if we've spent a good deal of effort to get our outcomes, our achievements makes us feel more like a fraud than a success.
3 reasons why people with ADHD are more likely to experience Imposter Syndrome Why over-confidence and capability are often inverselyrelatedThe Dunning Kruger Effect and why people who have more knowledge/ skill/ experience are often the very people who doubt themselves the mostWhy Donae thought she could easily reupholster a couch despite having no previous experience
With Imposter Syndrome, our wins don't feel like wins at all; our brain tells us that they're just luck, outliers, or flukes.
On today's episode of ADHD Crash Course, we'll discuss Imposter Syndrome and learn:If you are dealing with imposter syndrome, you are not alone! Listen to today's episode to learn how to manage it.

Planning and prioritizing can be a challenge for most of us, especially at work. Professional productivity often demands a lot from our executive functioning skills!
Things like breaking down big projects, coordinating with clients or coworkers, monitoring progress, or managing our schedule/ time are components of greater responsibilities that we have at work. Struggling with these can impact our performance in big ways!
Today I'm interviewing Antonia Bowring, a top ranked executive coach, speaker, and author who, at the age of 50, received a diagnosis of ADHD. Antonia will share a bit about her personal story as well as her own insights on planning and prioritizing at work.

Today we chat with Erin Vandermore, a licensed therapist, wellness coach, and the founder of Age of Uncertainty Coaching about the complicated connection between trauma and ADHD.
Since ADHD and trauma can show up very similarly, it can be challenging (even for clinicians) to differentiate between the two. The fact that many of those with an ADHD diagnosis have experienced trauma around their diagnosis and/or the impact ADHD has had on their lives adds to the complexity of this topic.
Erin offers expert insights on how we can identify trauma and understand its influence on our lives. She explains how somatic therapies like EMDR work and how they can be used to overcome our traumatic experiences.

Sometimes we're juststuck. It might look like scrolling on our phones, hitting the "next episode" button on Netflix, or even just staring out the window.
What makes us "stuck" is not the activity itself; it's the fact that we want or need to move on but it feels impossible to do so.
What can we do to move out of that place of stuckness to one where we can choose what we do next?
How can we get going when we feel like we're moving through quicksand?
Today we'll talk about using "transition activities" to gently move out of a frozen state and into one of mobility and productivity. This is not about "trying harder", it's about learning how to work with your nervous system exactly where it is!Mon, 18 Dec 2023 - 75 - 75. You're Not Selfish (But ADHD May Make It Look Like You Are)
Many people with ADHD have the experience of being perceived as selfish in conversations (or even in their relationships). It can be frustrating for boththe person with ADHD and their friends!
ADHD traits can negatively impact our communication and relationships; impulsivity, memory challenges, and divergent thought preference can make it harder for us to connect/ be in sync with others.
In todays episode we'll discuss common ways ADHD traits impact our communication/relationship and what we can do about it. We'll discuss how we can make changes that line up with our own values without masking or being inauthentic.Tue, 05 Dec 2023 - 74 - 74. The Perfect Planner for ADHD?
We are always on the hunt for the perfect planner/ time system/ organization system for ADHD!
The search can be frustrating AND expensive! The most important part of any system that we choose is something that doesn't come with the planner we buy...our habits around using it!
In today's episode, we'll talk about several questions you can ask yourself to find the right planner/ time system for YOU and steps you can take to ensure whatever you choose actually works to keep track of your time and cut down on chaos.

Although grades serve as one measure of our progress, they should NOT be the only measure! Students with executive functioning deficits (and even those without) benefit when we shift our focus from the outcome to the effort they are making. Not only does this decrease anxiety, it helps develop key EF skills like planning, prioritizing, self-monitoring, and flexible thinking.
Building these skills matter more than achieving a perfect score on any one test or class. When we overemphasize grades, it can actually make it moredifficult for students to develop the executive functioning skills they need!
Why? They stop focusing on what they can control in the moment and get overwhelmed with a future outcome.
Learn how we can shift our emphasis with our students and why it matters in this episode of ADHD Crash Course!Tue, 24 Oct 2023 - 72 - 72. Working Memory Help!
Working memory can be thought of as our shortest term memory; it's the information we hold in our mind in order to get things done.
Having to dig a box mix out of the trash several times to re-read steps when bakingWalking into a room but forgetting why you're thereForgetting a new acquaintance's name seconds after you've heard it
These are some common ways working memory deficits show up in our day to day lives:If any of these sounds familiar, you can join us today for a discussion on working memory; what it is and how to support your brain if you struggle in this area!
Tue, 10 Oct 2023 - 71 - 71. Is ADHD an Excuse?
Many of us have had the experience of sharing how ADHD impacts us only to be met with the response "You're using ADHD as an excuse".
How can we respond to this? Today we'll take a look at this common misconception when it comes to understanding ADHD. Our own perceptions of our "locus of control" can make a big difference in how we respond to comments like these!Tue, 26 Sep 2023 - 70 - 70. This One Thing Can Help Your Executive Function Skills!
There's a word swap you can use to strengthen executive function skills AND approach yourself (and others) with less judgment. Try replacing "why" with "how" in some of your questions.
Example:
"Why did I wait until the last minute to start this project?"
"Howdo I decide when to start my project?"
"Why is it so hard for me to make decisions?"
"How do I make decisions?"
When we're frustrated, why questions can make us feel defensive. They ask us to justify our motives or reasoning. “How” questions shift us to a place of curiosity- how exactly is this thing getting done (or not getting done)?
Why asks for motivations, but how is a question that looks at ourprocess. "How" helps us see the steps that lead us to an outcome and make changes. Then we can decide if there are different steps we want to take to change those outcomes!Fri, 08 Sep 2023 - 69 - 69. ADHD and DBT (Dialectical Behavioral Therapy)
What is DBT ( (Dialectical Behavioral Therapy)?
How is it different from CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) and how is it used to support people with ADHD?
Today we'll explore the DBT approach and its components, including mindfulness, emotional regulation, interpersonal effectiveness and distress tolerance skills.
Mon, 28 Aug 2023 - 68 - 68. My Top Tip for Overwhelm!
Why do divergent thinkers frequently deal with overwhelm? One possible reason is our tendency to seeall of the things...all at once!Our brains like to make connections and that can serve us in some settings but lead to overwhelm in others.
When it comes to overwhelm, this pattern of thinking can make prioritizing and decision making tough. It's harder for us to "back off" of the connections our brain has made and see/ do one thing at a time. (This focus on one thing at a time is an important part of keeping overwhelm at bay).
In today's episode of ADHD Crash Course, I'll talk about practical ways that we cansee lessand how to use this approach to beat overwhelm!
Tue, 15 Aug 2023 - 67 - 67. Mental Load and ADHD; Help for Exhaustion and Burn Out
Today we're talking about Mental Load, otherwise known as "invisible labor" and why understanding this concept is so important for those of us with ADHD.
What is mental load? It's the cognitive labor that goes into taking care of life. It’s the “worry work”; anticipating what is needed, researching options, planning, organizing, remembering, monitoring—- all of the thought work that goes into managing homes, work, family, and social lives.
If you are not in a partnership, you carry the weight of this work independently and if you have ADHD, this invisible labor can be even more challenging since in requires strong executive functioning skills.
Being in a partnership may not necessarily lighten this load for women, though. Studies suggest that women are often the default person for carrying the mental workload in families and that this can lead to overwhelm and burnout. Today we'll talk about this dynamic and ways we can protect against the negative impact of not sharing this cognitive work.

Today we chat with Dr. Tamara Rosier, author of Your Brain's Not Broken. Dr. Rosier discusses the difference between convergent and divergent thinking and why understanding this difference can have a huge impact for those of us with ADHD!
Many with ADHD prefer divergent thinking since this allows for creativity, expansion, and connection. While necessary for everyday life, tasks that fall under the convergent thinking category are often found to be boring or frustrating to those with a preference for divergent thought.
We need both "thought modes" to thrive in our modern world and Dr. Rosier's interview will offer us some tools to help us do that!

When I refer to "time travel" I'm talking about our ability to think about our future selves and determine what we will need at that future point. This can also refer to our habit of thinking about the past and applying what we've learned to our current circumstances.
For those with ADHD, traveling through time may not be automatic, and time might be seen as "now" or "not now", but that doesn't mean we can't strengthen this skill.
Use today's tips to plan for what's next and set your future self up for success!Tue, 02 May 2023 - 62 - 62. ADHD and Working with the Thoughts-Emotions- Action Cycle
How we respond to our circumstances is driven by a cycle that we may not be aware of. This cycle is often called different things: the cognitive triangle, the self coaching model, CBT model of emotions, and more, but analyzing each of these parts of the cycle can help us understand why we choose certain actions.
If we want to make changes in our lives, interrupting this cycle at different places can give us different results. Listen today to learn more about the thoughts-emotion- action- result cycle and some specific tips for those with ADHD.Tue, 18 Apr 2023 - 61 - 61. Public Speaking Tips for Fast (or Frozen) Brains: Interview with Sammie Walker Herrera

One label I often hear unfairly applied to those with ADHD is "lazy". The reality is that what is often perceived/ interpreted as "laziness" is the shut down that comes from overwhelm. We see too much at once and that makes it hard to get started.
Today we'll talk about the tendency for those of us with ADHD to see too much. This is a common contributor to overwhelm and can result in the inability to get started on what we want to do. We'll find tools and strategies that help break the overwhelm cycle and brain storm practical tips so we can "see less" in everyday jobs/ activities.
Whether it's cleaning a room, dealing with our calendar or managing emails, we can be strategic in order to see less!

There are some "adulting" tasks that are Achilles heels for us and many people with ADHD report that laundry is one of them! Struggling with everyday tasks like this can trigger shame and self judgment, which makes it even harder to find the solutions we need to make things easier for us.
Today we're going to look atwhy jobs like this are challenging and what we can do to make them more manageable. We'll discuss how factors like executive functioning skills, habit formation, visual distractibility/overwhelm, and black and white thinking can impact us and how we can better support our brains to lessen that impact!

What is meant by "Ask Culture" and " Guess Culture"? At their core, these terms are referring to communication styles. In Ask Culture, you ask for your wants and needs directly. In turn, the answers you receive are direct and a "no" most likely doesn't need to be qualified, justified, or "softened".
In Guess Culture, directly asking for what you want may be seen as pushy or even rude. The communication style of Guess Culture favors suggesting or hinting at what one wants or needs in an effort to elicit an offer of help from another without "putting them on the spot".
How can we navigate communication between these two communication styles and how does ADHD complicate this? Join us for this episode of ADHD Crash Course to learn more!Tue, 24 Jan 2023 - 55 - 55. Should You Tell Your Employer About ADHD?

Growth mindset is the belief that our talents, skills, and abilities can be developed whereas a fixed mindset assumes that these are "set" and that we're not able to improve them.
Researchers have noted trends in how these mindsets can impact our willingness to take risks, accept feedback, embrace challenges and tolerate failures.
Those with a growth mindset often felt more comfortable with challenge and struggle, knowing that these are valuable part of the learning process and essential for growth.
Learn more about Growth and Fixed Mindsets and how these can impact those of us with ADHD as we learn to work with our brains!Tue, 12 Jul 2022 - 41 - 41. How Anger Can Help Us
Anger is not an emotion that many people feel comfortable experiencing. We're not surrounded with many examples of healthy, assertive anger, so it's understandable that we fear that the emotion of anger will result in our losing control.
Anger may have a reputation of being destructive, but when managed well, anger can actually serve a purpose in our lives!
Since anger is a protective emotion, it lets us know when a boundary has been crossed. Anger is also an emotion that helps us take action and make important changes in our lives.
When we slow down and listen to the message that our anger carries, it can help us set and maintain our boundaries as well as protect ourselves and others. Listen to today's podcast episode to learn how slowing down and listening to your anger can help you leverage this emotion to help you!

“Auditory Processing is what the brain does with what the ear hears.”
How do we determine if APD is playing a role in our difficulty sustaining attention?What treatments are out there for those of us who have an APD diagnosis?Do children and adults have the same treatment for APD?Is APD genetic?What school and work accomodations can help support APD?

What is "toxic positivity"? Toxic positivity denies and minimizes any negative experiences and insists on a positive spin at all costs. It does not make room for the full range of human emotions/experience and can make us feel isolated and disconnected from our emotions.
"Practicing positivity" is a preferable tool when working with our brain's inherent negativity bias. When we practice positivity, we strengthen mindfulness, support our emotional regulation skills, and encourage real connection.
We can recognize the reality of a situation and still work on our own cognitive flexibility and use strategies to shift our mindset without denying our experience or masking.For my FREE training "Sensory Strategies for ADHD: Learn How to Change Your Energy & Focus!" register here:https://www.theadhdclaritycoach.com/webinar-registration-1

The spoon theory is an analogy that was created by Christine Miserandino when she attempted to describe what life with a chronic illness was like to her best friend. She used spoons to represent her "energy budget" and explained how living with lupus meant she had to make choices about where and how to spend this budget, choices that someone who was not living with lupus would not likely have to make.
Christine's description has resonated with many people living with chronic illness and is also a helpful frame of reference for those of us with ADHD. In today's episode, we'll discuss how the spoon theory applies to daily life with ADHD and how we can use strategies like creating task "menus" to help us plan for our energy and add flexibility to our days (while still moving towards the goals that matter to us).

Prioritization is an executive functioning skill that we use when we're trying to plan our time. Many people with ADHD find prioritizing challenging. We have large lists of things that need to be done but knowing which of those are the most pressing/important may not be intuitive.
We are overwhelmed looking at those massive things to do lists because everything feels urgent!Today we're going to look at a tool to help us manage the overwhelm: the Eisenhower Matrix. This system helps us categorize which tasks need to be done immediately, scheduled for another time, simplified, or limited.
If you would like to reference a picture of the Eisenhower Matrix, you can do in the transcript from today's episode here:

What if you could stop dreading setbacks and accept them as a normal part of growing? When we finally have momentum and we're seeing progress, it can be disheartening when something derails us from our goals.
If you've had enough experiences of "dropping the ball", you may even interpret some of these setbacks as evidence that you can't make real changes in your life, but that’s not true.
Today I'm going to offer you an analogy that I like to use when I'm navigating setbacks in my life. It's a gentler way to view these inevitable "bumps" and can encourage you during the setbacks that come with making the changes that matter to you.

ADHD has long been explained as a deficit of attention, but many think that this is a faulty description.
It's not that people with ADHD can't focus, it's that we can't always control what we focus on orwhen/ how long we focus (this is attention regulation).
In fact, those of us with ADHD may even find that we have exceptional focus on certain tasks or interests and even have a hard time shifting our attention offof those tasks.
Today we'll take a look at attention regulation, a phenomenon called hyperfocus, and how our variable attention can impact our lives.

Many with ADHD are quick responders which means they can be rock stars in emergencies, the first to crack a timely joke, or the ones willing to take a financial risk that pays off.
But the other side of our fast-acting ADHD brains is that impulsivity can cause problems for us. Even if our impulsivity isn't visible to those around us, it can still impact how we show up in our lives.
Personally, I consider my visual distractibility to be just as much of an impulse issue as an attention issue, and I'll cover that in this episode.
