🎧 Welcome back to The ADHD Entrepreneu(Her)—THE podcast for feral AF ADHD women in the online coaching arena who refuse to play by the fucking rules.

How many times have you looked at another online coach and thought, "She has her shit SO together. What's wrong with me?" Let me burst that bubble right fucking now: everyone has curveballs happening behind the scenes. Everyone. Including whoever just popped into your head.

2026 came in with a roar, not a meow, and I want to talk about the reality that curveballs are inevitable in your business. Life doesn't stop just because you have a launch scheduled, clients to serve, or content to create. In this episode, I'm getting raw about a moment that happened on my Neurospicy Sisterhood Mastermind call where I had to choose between performing composure or trusting myself enough to just be human.

What this episode is about? Bridging the self-trust gap that shows up so intensely for late-diagnosed ADHD women entrepreneurs when we have human moments.

When you stop pretending you have it all together and start keeping micro-promises to yourself, everything changes. You'll learn why curveballs don't mean you're failing—they mean you're fucking ALIVE—and how to handle them without spiraling into shame.


🦄 About This Episode:

🐆 Why every online coach has shit happening behind the scenes (yes, even her)

🌶 The raw moment on a mastermind call that taught me what real leadership actually looks like for ADHD entrepreneurs

🦄 What the "self-trust gap" is and why it shows up after late ADHD diagnosis

🐆 How showing up human (not perfect) actually builds more trust with your clients

🌶 Why you don't need to have your business shit together 24/7/365 to be successful

🦄 The four self-trust basics that matter when life throws curveballs at your business 

🐆 How to use the "Proof of Opposite" method to collect evidence that you can handle anything


This Episode is For You If:

  • You're constantly comparing yourself to other online coaches who seem to have it all figured out (they don't)
  • You've been hiding your struggles because you think professionalism means pretending everything is fine
  • You feel like a fraud every time something unexpected happens, and you can't show up as your "best self" for clients
  • You're tired of the shame spiral that happens when life gets
