Executive Dysfunction, and other ADHD experiences: PART 1

Hi friends! I know I have been mentioning this interview for a while now, and we were finally able to make it happen! My very special guest today is Dr. Laurie Mintz, Ph.D. Dr. Laurie is a college professor at the University of Florida who teaches the psychology of human sexuality and has over twenty years of experience working with private clients on general and sexual issues. She has also published more than fifty research studies, has written two books (Becoming Cliterate, and A Tired Woman's Guide to Passionate Sex), is a speaker (including a fabulous TedTalk which is linked below), and even writes a popular blog on Psychology Today. She is also a Taurus! I have read her book Becoming Cliterate numerous times now, so narrowing down what questions I wanted to ask and share with you was pretty difficult, but I know you are going to take so many great things away from our conversation today!  If you want to find out more about Dr. Laurie Mintz, you can check out the links below: Her website: drlauriemintz.com  Follow her on IG: @drlauriemintz And watch her TedTalk here  And like always: You can leave me a voicemail here  Follow me on the IG @newmoonhannah Support the podcast here!  Subscribe to my Cat's Cradle Newsletter here  Don't forget to leave a review and share with someone you think will enjoy!  Love you, and sending you the biggest hug! 

hi. I missed you, a lot. I hope you're doing ok out there, and wish you a belated 2023. Shit is tough, but I am glad you exist, and please know that you are not alone. I'd like to mention that no one will ever have the experiences you do, but there are people (myself included) who want to support you and metaphorically hold your hand through this very short (even though at times it feels like forever) existence we have here on planet Earth.   Leave me a voicemail: https://www.speakpipe.com/msg/s/275240/1/432yju6o5uww9lk2  Send me an email: [email protected]  Follow me on IG: @newmoonhannah  OTHER LINKS

So, just going along with this ADHD series, were here today to talk about stimming: self stimulation. I had no idea this was a thing until..well..Tiktok? Then I looked it up, and all the things I have been doing over the years that were labeled "quirky" made sense. So, we just have a somewhat short lil baby episode where I talk about some of those today! Let's go on ahead and hop on to it.  ALSO: There is a new HOTLINE!  GO TO THERE! You can record as many times as you want, so there's no pressure. I'd love to hear from you.  https://www.speakpipe.com/msg/s/275240/1/432yju6o5uww9lk2 Love you, See you next time!

Today, we are talking about executive dysfunction, task paralysis, reward systems, and so much more about the experience of someone with ADHD (me, silly). We also talk about updates on life situations.  Let's go on ahead and hop on to it. 

Ahhhh...so glad to be back. This episode is just, you know, me ranting about the state of the world, and my own personal struggles under this system of oppression! 

Today, I give you a life update, and then we talk about integrity! Let's go on ahead, and hop on to it.  Also, I just wanted to thank you for being a listener. It means the world to me. I hope that me sharing myself with you has made you feel less alone, and bonus points if any of this has helped you. I love you! Just as you are!  <3 Hannah

Today, were talking about success, how to define it for yourself, and some steps to reach the level of success you're moving towards, as well as a bunch of stuff I ramble on about (like normal). Let's go on ahead and hop on to it! 

Ahhh...I just know that this is your favorite kind of episode. The episodes where I ramble. Honestly, they are some of my favorite episodes too, even if I do feel a vulnerability hangover afterwards. #worthit. So, let's go on ahead and hop on to it.
