Listen "Breaking the Illusion of "I'm Fine": Anxiety, ADHD & Boundaries with Zoey Kyriacou"
Episode Synopsis
In this powerful episode of The Soul Mirror, host Shreya welcomes Zoey Kyriacou—therapist, ADHD strategist, and founder of Mastermind Counseling—for an honest, practical conversation on high-functioning anxiety, adult ADHD, boundaries, and emotional burnout. Together, they explore why high achievers often suffer silently, how time blindness and motivation dysregulation show up in adult ADHD, and why anxiety is not weakness, but a signal. Zoey explains how to set boundaries without guilt and how to work with your brain instead of against it. If you're overwhelmed but appear “fine,” this episode is a wake-up call to reclaim your inner space and learn tools that actually work.
About the Guest:
Zoey Kyriacou is a licensed therapist and the founder of Mastermind Counseling in New Jersey. Known as "Your Therapy Godmother," she supports high-functioning adults struggling with anxiety, ADHD, and emotional burnout. Through both therapy and coaching, Zoey empowers clients to set boundaries, build executive function, and live with clarity and confidence.
Key Takeaways :
This conversation with Zoey Kyriacou dives deep into high-functioning anxiety, adult ADHD, and the emotional cost of performance. Zoey explains that many adults, especially women, live in chronic hyper-responsibility—prioritizing others while neglecting their own needs. ADHD often shows up in women as inattentiveness or motivation dysregulation rather than classic hyperactivity, and goes undiagnosed well into midlife. She reveals how to use time-based tools like calendars, alarms, and planners to support executive function. On boundaries, Zoey explains the crucial shift from setting rules for others to setting actionable, self-honoring boundaries. Anxiety is reframed not as weakness, but as a signal—a misinterpreted survival response. Finally, she shares why she launched Mastermind Coaching to reach clients beyond New Jersey and offer proactive, holistic support. This episode is a must-listen for anyone navigating anxiety, ADHD, or the pressure to appear “fine” while feeling overwhelmed.
