January often comes with massive pressure to set—and stick to—New Year’s resolutions. But for ADHDers, these rigid goals can quickly trigger boredom, frustration, and guilt. In this episode, I share why “resolutions” often lead to burnout for those of us with ADHD. Instead, I focus on embracing growth and flexibility, finding novel ways to stay engaged in workouts, daily tasks, or any new habit—without forcing ourselves into an all-or-nothing routine. From time blindness and overambitious planning to the freedom of starting a new habit on any day (not just January 1st), you’ll learn strategies for building sustainable changes that don’t drain your motivation or harm your mental health. If you’re tired of resolutions that never stick, this episode offers a fresh approach: no deadlines, no shame—just growth, day by day.
