Summary

In this episode, Eric is joined by Jesse J. Anderson, a.k.a @ADHDJesse. Jesse is a writer, speaker, developer, and content creator who was diagnosed with ADHD at 36. He is the co-founder of Polar Habits, a guilt-free habit app, and he writes a weekly newsletter called Extra Focus. He is the author (rather, soon-to-be-author!) of Refocus: Thriving with Adult ADHD. He also has two podcasts and more! You'll hear about leaning into mistakes, what Polar Habits is all about, how breaking a 'streak' of habits doesn't undo your progress, and how changing our environments can impact our habits. Then, you'll hear more about habits, perfectionism, prioritization, and the importance of being vulnerable while having a curious and non-judgemental mindset. Finally, you'll hear Jesse fill us in about his creative writing process and what prompted him to start writing his book. Timestamps coming soon!

Adams https://www.goodreads.com/en/book/show/6665149 "So much of managing ADHD is just like learning my patterns, and then trying to build systems around catching those patterns." - Jesse "...one of the most important ingredients of a good coachee [is] curiosity [...] That's gold. If you have a non-judgemental curiosity towards how things are going, you're going to figure it all out. It just takes time." - Eric 🌟 Check out the Other Podcasts on the ADHD reWired Podcast Network: adhdessentials.com ADHD Essentials with Brendan Mahan hackingyouradhd.com Hacking Your ADHD with Will Curb adhddiversified.ca ADHD Diversified with MJ Siemens 🌟 Have you heard about our Adult Study Hall Community?
