S2 E14: OMG…AI for ADHD - We Talk to Lindsay Scola About Sleep, Co-regulation, and Her New BookLindsay Scola is the author of the upcoming book AI for ADHD: A Practical Guide to Starting (and Actually Finishing) What Matters, which is all about how she went from full-on ADHD burnout to publishing a book—thanks in large part to ChatGPT. The book blends personal storytelling with practical tools to help other neurodivergent creatives use AI to get unstuck, focus their ideas, and finally follow through on the things that matter most to them. The book officially launches on May 21 on Amazon - $0.99 Kindle version. If you feel inclined to leave a review, we’d be incredibly grateful—it makes a huge difference in helping the book reach more people.Here’s the preorder link: https://tinyurl.com/lindsayscolaThe Link Between ADHD and Sleep:Lindsay is also a sleep and productivity expert, and she says what most people don’t realize is that up to 80% of people with ADHD also have a sleep disorder—whether it’s diagnosed or not. Too often, people with ADHD are just told they’re “bad sleepers,” when in reality, their brains may have real physiological differences that affect sleep regulation. Her work helps people rethink rest not as a luxury or self-care task, but as a core performance strategy that fuels focus, creativity, and follow-through.Lindsay ScolaScola Strategies: Keynote Speaker, Writer, and Performance StrategistIG: @lindsay.scolalindsayscola.comhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/lindsay-scola/This Is How My Brain WorksHosts: Krista Gano, Sarah Hines, Jason Rudofsky and Michael CollinsWe’re a group of GenXers who became aware of our neurodiversity later in life.
