This week we revisit the idea of knowing your role as adults with ADHD. However, this time we look at it from a different angle that Cam and Shelly often see show up with their clients; when we get so focused on one role that the others seemingly vanish.
Using real world scenarios we examine the different ways that we and our clients have experienced disappearing roles, and discuss what listeners can do to examine and create change around this experience in their own lives.

This week we are taking a pause to discuss our plans to make anti-racism a part of the culture of Translating ADHD. Both of your hosts believe that silence is complacency, and that we have a responsibility to use our platform to speak out against racism and to amplify the voices of our Black colleagues doing great work in the ADHD space. Here's the plan:
Financial Support for Anti-Racism.
We launched our community for show patrons today. Gain access to our Discord community when you become a patron at the Translator level ($5/mo) via Patreon.
- 100% of our proceeds earned via Patreon through 12/21/20 will be donated to anti-racism causes.
- 10% of our proceeds earned via Patreon will be donated to anti-racism causes forever.
Amplifying the Voices of Black ADHD Professionals and ADHD Professionals of Color.
For the most part, the show you know and love will not be changing. Our primary format will still be conversations between Shelly and Cam. However, we recognize that the lived experiences of Black people and other people of color with ADHD have unique challenges and we want to make room to explore these topics with our colleagues who have the lived experiences to share.
Speaking on Anti-Racism Topics as Relates to ADHD
Cam and Shelly will continue examine current events from the ADHD lens. This will include, whenever appropriate, discussing relevant issues on the subject of anti-racism as relates to our adult ADHD audience.

When we are at choice as adults with ADHD it can make difficult tasks easier and help us shift from a perspective of being free from pain to one of being free to do what matters.
Today, we talk about how seeking relief from your level 1 symptoms works but can't sustain a long term management plan. Enter freedom and choice.

Have you ever found yourself believing that if you could just start with a "clean slate", things would be different?
Today, Shelly and Cam ask our listeners to examine clean slate thinking. We look at the circumstances that compel us to want to start over and the appeal of a clean slate as an answer to complexity or overwhelm. We also dig into our own experiences to discuss the past damaging behaviors and patterns that each of us experienced in pursuit of a clean slate.

Because we struggle with things that seem "easy" for most people, those of us with ADHD tend to develop the belief over time that there is something inherently wrong with us. Taking it a step further, we often try to hide our differences by bending over backwards to blend in with the neurotypical majority.
Today, Shelly and Cam ask our listeners to question the limiting belief that having ADHD makes us broken; and instead to consider how owning both your strengths and challenges as an adult with ADHD empowers you to adapt to methods that work for you and honor the fact that your needs are different.

Because our brains are wired differently than the neurotypical majority, those of us with ADHD can often fall into the trap of believing that we are not doing things right. Today, Cam and Shelly use client examples to demonstrate how the "I'm not doing this right" mindset can show up in friendships and work relationships. We then discuss how these clients were able to shift their perspective from a a place of inferiority to one of different, but equal.

Today, Cam and Shelly discuss a guiding philosophy that Shelly lives by in her own life and uses frequently with clients: Let It Be Easy. We discuss how we as adults with ADHD often get in our own way, over-complicating problems or approaching them from the wrong angle. We then give examples of how we and our clients have used this philosophy to find the "let it be easy" approach and how listeners can apply this philosophy to their own challenges.

For those of us with ADHD, distractions are a struggle. When we are distracted by a compelling thought or idea, we are often not only taken off task but taken down a rabbit hole. In today's episode, Shelly and Cam discuss a model for managing distractions so that we can reach the completions that matter to us.
