The Busy Brained Saint Podcast

Exhausted by Resistance: The Busy Brained Saint Pivot

In today's episode, "Exhausted by Resistance," I'm sharing a personal journey. About a year and a half ago, I felt a powerful urge to embrace my faith as a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints while continuing to serve a diverse community as an ADHD Coach. The tug-of-war between these two worlds became exhausting.
I've learned that I don't have to choose between them. I'm taking this podcast in a new direction, focusing on supporting my ADHD + LDS audience, but it'll offer value to others too.
Belonging is about self-assurance and self-security, and I believe in the power of representation for positive change.
Thank you for joining me on this journey. For questions or more info, reach out at info@kamdenadhdcoaching.com. Explore Mindful and consider joining our community. You're never alone on your path, and I'm here to support you every step of the way. Grateful to have you in the "Busy Brain Saint" family.

When Progress Feels ”Poopy”

In this episode of The Busy Brained Saint Podcast, we explore the concept that progress can sometimes feel uncomfortable and unfamiliar, contrary to our expectations of it being exhilarating. Titled "Progress Feels Poopy," we delve into the common experience of embarking on personal growth journeys, only to find that the initial stages can be challenging and unsettling.
We start by acknowledging that when we set out to make positive changes in our lives, we often hope for immediate gratification and a sense of achievement. However, the reality is that growth involves stepping into the unknown, which can evoke feelings of discomfort and uncertainty. This is a natural part of the process, and it's crucial to understand that these feelings are not indicative of failure but rather a sign that you're pushing yourself beyond your comfort zone.
We then focus on the perspective of individuals with ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) and highlight examples from their lives where the pursuit of progress can feel particularly daunting. Despite the allure of a more familiar, albeit less healthy, lifestyle, we emphasize the importance of persevering through discomfort and embracing the notion that you can handle the challenges that come with personal development.
In conclusion, this episode encourages listeners to reframe their expectations of progress and recognize that it often feels unfamiliar and uncomfortable. By acknowledging that this discomfort is a normal part of the growth process, we empower ourselves to keep moving forward, even during the tough moments. Remember, it's okay to not feel great while you're improving. Repeat to yourself, "You can do uncomfortable."
