The holidays are supposed to be joyful… so why do they leave you overstimulated, exhausted, and quietly unraveling by mid-December?

If you live with ADHD, the holidays can feel like a nonstop assault on your nervous system—noise, expectations, schedules blown to bits, emotional landmines, and a constant pressure to “show up happy.” This episode is a reminder that peace isn’t something you earn by doing more—it’s something you give yourself permission to protect.

We’re talking about what grace actually looks like during the holidays (hint: it’s not perfection), how to stop shaming yourself for burnout, and practical ways to create calm when your brain is running a thousand tabs at once. We’ll unpack why traditional holiday expectations clash with the ADHD nervous system, and how to reclaim the season without burning yourself to the ground.

This episode is for the parent who’s overwhelmed, the entrepreneur who’s tired of pushing, and the person who needs someone to say: you’re not failing—you’re human.

Slow down. Breathe. You’re allowed to choose peace, even now.

In this episode, we’re getting honest about the kind of grief no one talks about — the grief that comes with ADHD. The missed cues, the overwhelm, the emotional whiplash… and the silent guilt that sneaks in behind it.

We dig into how unity and love show up even in the moments where your brain feels scattered, your patience is thin, and your heart is tired. And we talk about the beauty of healing: not by pretending everything’s fine, but by learning how to move through life with grace, rhythm, and a whole lot of realness.

If you’ve been carrying ADHD grief quietly, this conversation will feel like a deep exhale.

And if you’re ready to untangle your mind, reset your routines, and reclaim your peace?

Check out my ADHD Reset — a simple, faith-grounded path to getting your focus, flow, and confidence back on track.

This episode is a reset moment—something I needed to say, and something a whole lot of us needed to hear. Over the next week or two I’ll be talking more about the ADHD Reset, but today… today is about the heart of it.

This is the reminder we forget way too often:

Life will not always wait for us to “feel ready.” Sometimes you just have to do the thing anyway. Not perfectly. Not with fireworks. Just with intention. One small action at a time. Because every little step stacks up, and before you know it, you’re moving again.

And on the other side of that, there’s the part we don’t honor enough:

You are allowed to just be. To sit still without guilt. To breathe without apologizing. To exist without performing. Rest isn’t laziness—it’s obedience. It’s choosing to show up as the person God already designed, instead of trying to outrun your own mind.

This episode is your reset button… your soft nudge to move… and your gentle permission to stop moving when you need to. Both are holy. Both are necessary. Both are part of living well with ADHD.
