In this week's episode ofThe ADHD Women’s Wellbeing Podcast, I’m joined by psychologist, researcher, and founder of Outset Wellness, Sonia Ponzo, for an insightful conversation surrounding motivation and ADHD.

Sonia has over a decade of experience at the intersection of behaviour change and mental health, and is passionate about creating body-first, science-backed tools that support real change for neurodivergent people.

Together, we explore the deep-rooted struggles so many of us with ADHD face when it comes to starting, sustaining, and trusting ourselves, especially as entrepreneurs. But when we find something that truly lights us up, everything shifts. It’s not that we’re broken; we just thrive differently and finding our thing can transform not only how we work but also how we treat ourselves along the way.

My new book, The ADHD Women's Wellbeing Toolkit, is now available, grab your copy here!

Key Takeaways:

1. How ADHD presents differently between women and the urgency of nuance in recognising this
2. The emotional and physical cost of burnout for high-achieving ADHDers
3. Why starting tasks can feel impossible for those with ADHD
4. How poor interoception can cause ADHD paralysis due to a lack of awareness
5. The missing conversation regarding invisible energy drains how to rebuild self-trust
6. The role of movement as a gentle way to reconnect to your body and build momentum
7. The shift from “all or nothing” to “everything counts” in creating sustainable movement habits
8. Reframing exercise as intuitive movement instead of punishment or pressure
9. Why increased awareness isn’t enough without accessible, real-life support and action
10. How Outset Wellness helps neurodivergent minds create habits that feel safe and sustainable

Whether you’ve felt stuck in cycles of burnout, confusion, inconsistency, or self-blame, this conversation will gently remind you that you’re not broken, and that your body might just hold more answers than you think.
