““How do you hack your dopamine to get inspired and motivated to work?” - this is a question I received from Jenny.
If you have the same question as Jenny, then this episode is for you!
In this episode of the ADHD Refresh Podcast, I share some info about the connection between ADHD and dopamine. Dopamine helps you feel good and it is part of our chemical reward system. ADHDers can sometimes struggle with motivation because of a lack of dopamine - which is the reward center of the brain. Many people wait to feel inspired. The reality is, you cannot wait to feel inspired– instead, you can do some hacks so you can stimulate more dopamine into your system.
What you’ll find in today’s episode:
- What the link is between ADHD and dopamine
- What impacts dopamine has to your mind and body
- What tools I use to help me hack my dopamine
Key takeaways:
Life’s reality is this– you will never be inspired and motivated 100% of the time. You cannot always wait for inspiration to kick in before you start working on your dreams. You have to be able to implement habits that will release dopamine into your system. The more dopamine you have, the better you feel. The more dopamine, the more rewarding it feels. The more rewarding it is, the more you want to do something again to give you more of that good feeling.
If you’ve reached this far, then you are well on your way of discovering the power of understanding yourself and being creative to find solutions that work for you. It isn’t up to anyone else. You need to know yourself and be able to navigate your brain like the Powerful CEO that you are.

In today’s episode, we will be answering Katelyn’s question in my DMs, “How do I work on letting go of the fear of walking away from my job to start my dream?”
If you have been having the same dilemma as Katelyn recently, then this episode is for you!
In this episode of the ADHD Refresh Podcast, we will be talking about how fear is an illusion. Fear comes from the part of your brain that is designed to keep you safe. When you find yourself getting into fear - instead of seeing it as something that is holding you back - look at it as a sign. It is a sign that on the other side of the fear - there is growth. You can still start when you are scared!
What you’ll find in today’s episode:
- How setting your intentions can move mountains
- How growth is always on the other side of fear
- How your business can be the biggest personal development journey if you choose for it to be
Key takeaways:
You can create the life of your dreams - make the decision to eat fear for breakfast and lean into the discomfort. If you have moved through fear in the past - you can do it again!
Just imagine what your life would look like in a year if you decided to go all in on yourself and your business. Fear is not there to stop you– it is there to propel you towards the life you desire.

- What would be possible in your business if you could be a Powerful CEO that could navigate scattered energy with ease?
Key takeaways:
The fact that you are here, listening to this episode today, tells me you are someone who wants to be a Powerful CEO. The less resistance you have to your brain, you can start to put your energy towards building and expanding your business, rather than fighting your brain.

If you are someone who feels the need to be constantly “on” in their business and feels so guilty when they take time off, this episode is for you!
In today’s episode of the ADHD Refresh Podcast, we will talk about how powerful rest is for the ADHD brain. When you take time off to rest, you allow your brain to replenish and clear out so much space for new ideas and allow it to gear up for more productive work.
This is the most requested episode topic and when you listen you’ll discover why!
What you’ll learn in today’s episode:
- How to come out of hyperfocus
- How decreased stress improves focus
- How rest will allow you to be more successful in your business
Key takeaways:
When you take time off to rest, you give your brain the break it needs so it can come out of the hyperfocus tunnel. As a result, your brain will function better, you'll sleep better and you won’t be in a constant state of stress. You will be more creative, and you will have more clarity about what needs to be done to move the needle forward.
Your business won’t die if you rest. In fact, I can tell you how rest is going to change the trajectory of your business, but I won't. I’ll let you discover that for yourself.
