Tenacious Heart Podcast

We are closing up our segment on the 8 executive functions on today’s episode. Before I jump into the content of the episode, I give a little update on my life, specifically what’s been going on with my oldest son Desmond. Then I will break down planning & prioritization, task initiation, and organization. I share more examples of how low executive functioning plays out in my own life and how it could look for a child versus an adult. I hope you enjoy!

You will be getting more ADHD content in today’s episode. Taylor puts the symptoms of ADHD aside and focuses on what ADHD actually is and how it affects your frontal lobes. Taylor answers, “Why do I have ADHD? Why is my brain different from everyone else’s?” The short answer to this question is DOPAMINE. Taylor is taking on dopamine and explaining why dopamine is the main reason why you have ADHD and how low amounts of dopamine can negatively affect your day-to-day life.

In today’s episode, I am answering my husband's question, “What do you do when validation doesn’t work?” This led me down a rabbit hole called, “Emotional Maturity”. I talk to you about what emotional maturity is and the big differences between someone who is emotionally mature versus someone who is emotionally immature. Your homework with week is to answer these 4 questions through journaling:

1. How did you respond to a recent stressful situation?
2. How have you coped with unexpected change?
3. Are you often fed up with everyone and everything?
4. When things go wrong, do you usually pin the blame on yourself or others?

In today’s episode, we are talking about one of my favorite coping skills, Fact-Checking. I introduced fact-checking in last week's episode and wanted to give it more time and attention because it’s so important. Fact-checking is one of the most important coping skills I teach. Its origins are based on the idea, “I am not my thoughts”. I coach the 3 steps to fact-checking; stop & label, PTI (private thought investigator), and honest self-compassion.
