Today we’re talking with Kelsey Silver, founder and CEO of The Neurospicy CEO, about decision fatigue. Decision fatigue is when your environment has created a space where every decision takes so much energy out of you that you no longer have the energy to make that next decision. (Like, what’s for dinner?) Kelsey and I talk through different strategies for coping with decision fatigue, and ways to streamline your decisions. Because the more you eliminate decisions in your life, the more space and spoons you will have for the decisions that not only matter, but also feed you, and get you excited. Want to request a topic?

Today we’re talking about my experience with autism and pain tolerance. The point of me sharing this is not just to share my personal story, although I think personal stories can be helpful. I also wanted to use this as an opportunity to remind people that autism is a spectrum and what the word spectrum means. Whether or not you feel that you fit a stereotype, you can still be autistic. 💙 Want to request a topic?

TRIGGER WARNING: This episode contains some discussion of self-harm. We don’t go into graphic detail, but it is discussed. If you’re not in a headspace to hear this kind of content right now, I encourage you to save this episode and come back to it at a later time, or simply skip this episode altogether. Today we’re talking to Kaitlyn Signorelli of Confidently ADHD & Kaitlyn Signorelli Coaching to talk about ADHD and the menstrual cycle. We begin our talk discussing Kaitlyn’s experience with premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD) and later, how they’ve learned to make accommodations in their life to cope with the ways the menstrual cycle affects their ADHD symptoms. By knowing your symptoms shift as your hormones shift during your menstrual cycle, you can: (1) start to pay attention to it to see how it looks and shows up in your life, (2) you can start to take control of it, so it doesn’t feel as chaotic anymore, and (3) you can start to accept and embrace that there’s no shame in how you’re feeling - because there’s nothing intrinsically wrong with you, your brain chemistry is literally changing throughout the month.

Today we’re talking about the idea of “female autism” and the genderization of neurodivergence in general, and why I think it’s problematic and unhelpful. Quick acknowledgment: There are many presentations of autism. This discussion is not meant to dismiss anyone’s presentation of autism or neurodivergence. This discussion is meant to provide some nuance and context for why it can be problematic and unhelpful to categorize something as female vs male when it comes to neurodivergence.
