If you’ve been told your whole life that you’re disorganised, unreliable or bad at time management, this episode will help you see what’s really going on in your ADHD brain & give you tools to work with it instead of beating yourself up.


Inside the episode, we cover:

  • What time blindness actually is for ADHD brains
  • How it shows up in real life, from late fees to missed bedtime to “oops, I forgot that Zoom call”
  • Why our executive functions (working memory, planning & prioritising) make it hard to feel time
  • The role of dopamine & why “feel good now” keeps winning over Future You
  • 5 practical ways to support time blindness & improve your relationship with time
