Kuuntele ADHD Focus with David Pomeroy, MD

Do you shudder when you hear the words “financial planning”? How do you answer the question “what would you like to be doing in 20 years? “ Do you wonder how you are going to be able to afford to retire and travel/have a big garden/have a woodworking shop/spend more time with family? (Pick any or add your own!) My guest today has developed strategies that fit the way our ADHD mind works; today you get to see and/or hear how to get started with one of them.

She founded PROSPR in 2019 to provide education and tools for people to use in order to reduce the stress and anxiety they feel around money and reach financial success (as they define it).  (PROSPR has no “E” on purpose – no Excuses.) ADHD minds work well with visual representation of thoughts and ideas – diagrams, pictures, maps. The PROSPR model starts with visualization of your financial success, in much more depth and detail than just a picture floating around in your head. Watch or listen (or both) as we demonstrate how the process starts, with Simi in her role as a Certified Financial Therapist (CFT™ [https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/15.1.0/72x72/2122.png]) and myself as someone aiming for retirement.

As a parent advocating for your ADHD/neurodivergent child at their school, have you found it difficult to jump through all the hoops required by our school systems in order to get help? If there was a way to develop and maintain a collaborative approach with your child’s teachers, with the goal of helping your child succeed in school, would you want to know how to do it? Great! You are in the right place! My guest Frances Coppa, an ADHD Coach, parent of a child with ADHD, a person with ADHD herself, a former SpEd teacher and school principal, has developed a model which leads parents and teachers through the process of working together in creating a supportive environment and structure to enable your child to succeed in school, not simply in academics but in the social aspects of personal development as well.

Visualize a tree, with roots, trunk and branches all visible. This is your Tree, your life past and present, ready to grow more branches, the ideas and plans and things you create with your life. The roots are the experiences you have had in your life, some good, some not so good; what have you learned from them? How have they shaped who you are today? They are the foundation for your core beliefs/passions/values, which are the trunk of the tree. The branches are the directions your life has taken with new ones growing all the time as new ideas develop into plans, new experiences give rise to new ideas…you get the idea.

“Just can’t get started“. “I did a bunch of things on my To-Do list…not the important ones but I got a lot done”. “I’m exhausted, can’t do another thing! (5pm)”. Does this sound like you? Join the crowd! At least 8 out 10 of us with ADHD (my guesstimate, probably more than that) have said that more than once. What gets in our way? Why is it so hard to get going on things we know have to get done?  Subscribe with your favorite podcast player Apple Podcasts [https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/adhd-focus-with-david-pomeroy-md/id1359949151]Android [https://subscribeonandroid.com/webtalkradio.net/internet-talk-radio/category/podcasts/Health and Wellness/adhd-focus/feed]RSS [https://webtalkradio.net/internet-talk-radio/category/podcasts/health-and-wellness/adhd-focus/feed] The answers are in Your Brain’s Not Broken, the chapter on the Murderers of Motivation. My guest in this episode is its author, Tamara Rosier Ph.D, an ADHD coach in Michigan with a wider professional background than that description might suggest; she brings the personal perspective of one with lived experience in ADHD to her work (as do I). We explore how these murderers of our best intentions derive from the processes of the ADHD mind which are different from “the other 96 percent”. Best of all, Dr. Rosier explains the Solve-It Grid, her model of how to prevent the workings of our ADHD minds from grabbing us, and how to balance our energy and focus over the day/week/month.

Daydreaming. Spacing out. Moving slowly, takes a long time to do anything. Always tired, even if they got a good night’s sleep. They can focus, get chores and homework done, it just takes them such a long time. This is a description of a child with Cognitive Disengagement Syndrome, CDS (formerly known as Sluggish Cognitive Tempo). People with ADHD Inattentive Type can also have CDS, but not all of them do. And not all folks with CDS have ADHD either.  Subscribe with your favorite podcast player Apple Podcasts [https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/adhd-focus-with-david-pomeroy-md/id1359949151]Android [https://subscribeonandroid.com/webtalkradio.net/internet-talk-radio/category/podcasts/Health and Wellness/adhd-focus/feed]RSS [https://webtalkradio.net/internet-talk-radio/category/podcasts/health-and-wellness/adhd-focus/feed] My guest today is Dr. Joseph Fredrick, a psychologist and head of the CDS Program of the Center for ADHD at the Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center. Join us as we explore all aspects of CDS, from diagnosis to treatment. How would a parent, teacher, or clinician identify the child with CDS? What can be done about it? (Hint – a good sleep routine to allow 8 hours of solid sleep is the first step! ). Listen (and watch if you can) to get the answers. Listen and learn! Check out our video chat!
