Episode Synopsis

What happens when ADHD meets the chaos of midlife? When emotional regulation collides with hormonal imbalance, and everything—focus, patience, even mental stability—feels like quicksand?
In this powerful, heart-forward episode, host Tera Greenwood explores three pillars that help ADHD minds survive and thrive through life’s hardest seasons:
Grace — learning self-compassion when your brain and hormones feel like they’re working against you.
Gratitude — how small, intentional moments of appreciation can rewire emotional regulation and ground an overstimulated mind.
Grit — the quiet persistence that keeps us moving, even when motivation disappears and life feels heavy.
Tera shares candid stories from motherhood, leadership, and late-diagnosis ADHD, while weaving in current research on self-compassion, dopamine, and how menopause magnifies emotional dysregulation. It’s a raw, relatable conversation for anyone who’s ever wondered: “Why can’t I keep it together right now?”
