Summary
Episode 144 with Tara Breuso.
“ADHDers have such intense empathy. When I was 10, if I saw another child upset at a party, I would zero in on them and want to make them feel better.”
Tara is a registered dietitian and certified intuitive eating counselor based in Australia. She runs an online private practice working with ADHD clients, helping them to gain clarity around eating and to stop dieting and binge eating for good. As an ADHDer herself, she understands that food, eating, and weight can be a turbulent experience for people living with ADHD. Her passion is helping people with ADHD find food freedom using a scientifically proven approach.
We talk about the principles of intuitive eating and food freedom and how these concepts can often be misunderstood or rejected by people with ADHD. We also talk about common difficulties we have with feeding ourselves, including sensory issues around food, executive dysfunction around meal prep, and decision fatigue.
And we talk all about snack hacking and Tara’s beautiful printable food lists — one of them is a visual aid for combining ordinary items in our pantry, and she also has a visual shopping list and simple recipes — it’s fantastic so make sure to check them out!
