ADHD Roundtable Ep 11 | Task Avoidance, Hyperfocus & AI Workarounds
Episode Summary
This episode is an absolute whirlwind of laughter, honesty, and deep connection. Jess brings together three powerhouse women—DaVita, Ari, and Sherry—to talk about ADHD moments, hyperfocus spirals, creative energy, and all the ridiculous and relatable chaos that comes with ADHD brains. From losing spoons in the car to launching group programs and diving into AI tools, this episode captures the highs, lows, and everything in between. There’s vulnerability, wisdom, humor, and a whole lot of “me too” energy. Whether you’re struggling with task avoidance, rejection sensitivity, or finding your flavor of ADHD, this episode will leave you feeling seen, supported, and maybe even ready to try meditation (while pacing, obviously).
✨ Highlights & Takeaways
ADHD Moments Galore: From lost phones in plain sight to rogue spoons and calendar mishaps, we kick off with a celebration of everyday ADHD chaos.
Hyperfocus Superpowers: Whether it’s Canva, coaching programs, or skincare routines, hyperfocus is real—and sometimes a little dangerous to your sleep schedule.
ChatGPT for the Win: Several guests shared how they’re using AI to bust through overwhelm, script videos, plan workshops, and even draft difficult emails.
Task Avoidance & Delegation: Real talk on why delegation is hard (it’s all in your head... literally) and how screen recording + AI = workflow magic.
Body Doubling & Community: Jess plugs her body doubling membership, “F*** Little Tasks,” and reminds us we don’t have to do the hard stuff alone.
RSD & Emotional Regulation: Insightful convo on rejection sensitivity, trauma overlap, and finding tools like meditation, compassion, and reframing.
Let’s Talk About Sex (and Weed): Yes, there’s a full conversation about how ADHD, pleasure, trauma healing, and yes, cannabis, intersect. It’s real, it’s grounded, and it’s enlightening.
Your ADHD Is a Character: Give your ADHD a name, dress it up, and put it in the back seat when needed. (Sharon, we’re looking at you.)
