In this episode, we're diving into ten real-life ways ADHD might be showing up in your relationships (without you even realising it).


From time blindness and impulsivity to forgetting important dates or picking a fight just for stimulation, we’ll explore the very human, very ADHD reasons why our relationships sometimes feel hard. And no, it’s not because you’re a bad partner or friend - your brain just works differently.


You’ll learn:

  • Why prioritising people can be tricky with ADHD
  • How boredom, hyper-focus, and emotional reactivity impact connection
  • What RSD, impulsive spending, and poor time management can do to your relationships
  • That you’re not alone - and there’s nothing wrong with you
