Description

In this week's More Yourself episode of The ADHD Women’s Wellbeing Podcast, Kate explores one of the biggest and most powerful shifts that happens after a late ADHD diagnosis: learning to trust yourself again.

This clip from the ADHD Women's Wellbeing Summer series workshop, Boosting your Self-Belief and Self-Trust after a late-in-life ADHD Diagnosis, is all about rebuilding self-belief, understanding your inner dialogue, and shifting the unhelpful stories we’ve been telling ourselves, often our whole lives.

Many women diagnosed later in life carry years of internalised shame, people-pleasing, perfectionism, and chronic self-doubt. In this episode, we explore how to recognise and rewire limiting beliefs that have become your reality for so long, but may not actually be true.

This conversation will help you embrace life with self-compassion, clarity, and trust in who you are, what you believe, and how you want to navigate your life.

Key Takeaways:

  • Learning how to recognise, rewire, release, and rebuild beliefs to develop stronger self-trust after an ADHD diagnosis
  • How what we believe often shapes how we see ourselves and our reality
  • Understanding how internal criticism and old thought patterns influence our choices, confidence, and emotional wellbeing
  • The power of self-trust and how to reconnect with your inner voice, which knows who you truly are
  • Using affirmations and mantras to gently shift how you speak to yourself, moving from self-doubt to self-support
  • Understanding how you want to show up, speak to yourself, and regulate your emotions with compassion and clarity
  • Why self-acceptance starts with awareness to make space for growth
  • How to reframe limiting beliefs to move towards healing and self-confidence
