Mark Manson - ADHD, Novelty & Work. Why Traditional Productivity Hacks Won’t Help.
For a lot of us with ADHD brains, the idea of working a 9-5 job with stable productivity seems like an unimaginable concept. The ways that we thrive in our careers or our work lives seem to be a little bit left of centre when compared to others. When it comes to structure, goals and productivity, is it best that we listen to the ‘expert’ advice, or do we need to go about it in completely different ways? Mark Manson is a #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Subtle Art of Not Giving a Fck* and Everything is Fcked: A Book About Hope with 20 million books sold in over 65 languages. Mark is also a podcaster, a youtuber, and a zero fuck giver. Speaking with Mark Manson about his ADHD diagnosis was particularly interesting because in all of the content that he creates, I’d noticed that he had only mentioned it a handful of times. Mark’s relationship with his ADHD brain has evolved over the decades. When he was a teenager, he was medicated and the people around him noticed that his sparkle dissolved and his creativity seemed to dissipate; despite him getting better grades. Mark chose to stop medication, and brute force his way through life. So, how was Mark able to achieve such extensive levels of success despite having a diagnosed attention deficit? In this episode we spoke about: The ADHD brain and a need for novelty The pros and cons of becoming bored easily Impulsivity and ‘self medicating’ ADHD with alcohol Most goals shouldn’t be accomplished Figuring out the best productivity environments and tools that you respond to The unconventional strategies to help you be productive How to structure your work day, time boxing and to do lists Understanding your own mental tendencies and working WITH them You can hear more from Mark Manson on his podcast “the subtle art of not giving a f*ck podcast” and you can get his books quite literally anywhere in one of the 65 different languages they are published in!

Lifting The Cloud on ADHD
Welcome to the brand new 10 part mini series Cloud. Cloud is a podcast series created to discuss ADHD and late age diagnosis. The name Cloud is inspired by the experiences of many late-diagnosed women who describe finally feeling like a “cloud was lifted” after learning more about the different ways that their brains work and how they ‘fit’ into society. With all of the content about ADHD on social media explaining what the condition is, I’ve been on quite a journey figuring out the difference between what I thought were personality flaws and what is actually symptomatic of this condition. I realised that there was a bit of a gap of what to do next. What was I meant to do with all of this information? Cloud was created to fill that gap. It explores the intersection of ADHD with identity, relationships, career, and well-being so that we can live more fulfilling and more present lives.Each episode will offer insight into a different aspect of ADHD from guests like Mark Manson, the author of ‘The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck, psychiatrist Dr Kieran Kennedy, focus and attention expert Johann Hari and relationship experts Sabrina Zohar and Logan Ury. Today’s conversation is about emotional dysregulation, shame, masking, impulsivity, self criticism and success. We chat: - Why I was so hesitant to speak publicly about ADHD- The ‘oversaturation’ of ADHD content on social media - How ADHD presents differently in girls and women- Wondering if I'd have known earlier, would life have been easier?- How I've changed since diagnosis- How Britt & Laura feel I've changed- Rejection sensitive dysphoria, emotional dysregulation, shame, impulsivity and time blindness.- Am I a chameleon or am I masking?
