ADHD Brains + Money Mistakes: Shame-Free Finance with Inaam

Impulsive spending, financial avoidance, accidental missed bills - these are just some of the hidden costs of ADHD. Money and ADHD can be a messy mix. Add in the cultural rejections of having open conversations about money and there you have a successful case of shame-filled, fearful adults who are lost in the capitalist society they live in. 

On a mission to normalise finance talks, we invited resident brown boy in Fintech, CEO and Founder of Inaam, Arjun Agarwal, to have honest, open conversations about ADHD and money. Arj is a TEDx speaker, globally recognised entrepreneur, former Portfolio Manager at KPMG High Growth Ventures, and social impact advocate working to bridge the gap between capital, young people, and entrepreneurship. 

Together, we explore:

• Why ADHD brains often struggle with money (and why it’s not a personal failure)

• How shame and avoidance keep ADHDers stuck in financial cycles

• Common ADHD money patterns

• Why traditional budgeting advice often doesn’t work for neurodivergent people

• What shame-free, values-aligned finance can look like for adults with ADHD
  

This episode is for anyone who’s ever felt overwhelmed, embarrassed, or stuck when it comes to money. Let’s move forward together.
