Calm Your Nervous System
Calm Your Nervous System is the podcast for neurodivergent high-achievers who are done with burnout, overwhelm, and running on adrenaline — and you’re ready to create a healthier and wealthier life.
I’m Jenny Adams, award-winning Somatic ADHD Coach, and I’m here to show you what most strategies miss: until your nervous system feels safe, you’ll keep wasting time, money and energy on short term “fixes” that miss your brilliance!
Unrecognised ADHD burned me out so badly I spent years reliant on a wheelchair- I see the patterns of pushing and I don’t want this for you!
You’ll hear honest conversations and practical tools to:
✨ Break free from survival mode
✨ Rewire the beliefs keeping you small
✨ Build habits that actually stick (ND-friendly, not NT moulds)
✨ Create more energy, money, and joy — without burning out
Because when you regulate your nervous system, you don’t just cope. You thrive. You create. You live your limitless neurodivergent life.

⭕THE LIMITLESS SERIES⭕: “You’re too much” is what you might have believed from such a young age, being sensitive and neurodivergent and internalising the many negative messages you heard as a child.

How did you get here? And how can you change this?
