What if everything you’ve been told about ADHD is wrong?
What if your brain isn’t broken—but simply wired for a different kind of brilliance?
In this episode, we’re throwing out the outdated, shame-filled narratives around ADHD and replacing them with something revolutionary: wholeness.
In this episode, I’m walking you through the Untamed Freedom Formula, a four-phase process designed to help you stop fighting yourself and start embracing how your mind actually works. We’ll talk about curiosity, acceptance, self-compassion, and willingness—and how these four simple shifts can change everything, from your productivity to your relationships to your self-worth.
If you’ve ever felt like you’re “too much” or “not enough” at the same time, this episode is for you.
In this episode, you’ll learn about:
- Shame spiral, system hopping, and self-abandonment are the bigger issues. (1:00)
- Analogy: Painting over a water stain instead of fixing the leak → Treating symptoms instead of root causes. (2:30)
- Many are working hard yet feel like they’re failing. (4:00)
- The real issue: Fighting "invisible math" with shame as a compass. (5:45)
- Developed after being diagnosed with ADHD at 19. (7:00)
- Phase 1: Relearn (10:00)
- Phase 2: Reflect (12:30)
- Phase 3: Release (15:30)
- Phase 4: Respond (17:30)
- ADHD isn’t a secret but a part of a person’s system. You don't need to tell others about ADHD for them to understand or tiptoe around you. (19:00)
- Ontology refers to understanding the true nature of something. In this case, it’s about exploring ADHD's real nature instead of trying to "fix" it. (20:00)
- The traditional view of ADHD as a disorder of executive function is flawed. (22:00)
- ADHD is a form of neurodivergence, not a failure to fit into societal expectations. (24:00)
- The “theology” of executive function promotes obedience and productivity, which might not work for ADHD brains. (25:15)
- The internalized belief that ADHD individuals are lazy or undisciplined stems from societal pressure to conform to a rigid, linear, and productive mold. (26:00)
