Welcome to Hacking Your ADHD, part of the ADHD Rewired Podcast Network.

I'm your host, William Kerb, and I have ADHD.

On this podcast, I dig into the tools, tactics, and best practices to help you work with your ADHD brain.

This week, I had the pleasure of talking with MJ Siemens from the ADHD

Diversified podcast. And what a conversation we had. In it, we talk a lot about the

imposter syndrome that often accompanies success with ADHD, and why we often don't feel

successful despite hitting all those metrics we were supposed to. We also talk about how we

can work on reframing our views on success so that we can feel good about all those metrics we were supposed to. We also talk about how we can work on reframing our views on success

so that we can feel good about all those things that we accomplished.

It was a really interesting conversation, and I'm really glad that MJ came on the show.

Also, and just as a note here, there is a little bit of swearing of this episode,

so if that's something you're worried about, you might want to skip this one.

If you'd like to follow along on the show notes page, you can find that at hacking your ADHD.com slash success with MJ.

All right, keep on listening to find out why success sometimes doesn't always feel like it.

When you hear success with ADHD, what's the first thing that comes to mind?

How did I get here?

It's like the first thing that comes to mind when I know in previous episodes you've talked about imposter syndrome and there are some days where I'm like, man, I am killing it and I'm doing really good and I'm on the ball.

And then some days I'm like, oh, I can't do anything.

And other days, it's like I have this realization that, oh, I'm doing this.

And then my brain was, no, wait, stop.

It's not that great.

What you're doing isn't that awesome, even though there's like clear evidence from other people that are telling you that you're doing amazing things.
