mental health is a journey
EP19 - Hey guys, a bit of a different one this week! I chatted with Bethan Buswell from the Mental Health Foundation about the relationship we have with ourselves, and how this can affect our mental health.

Bethan was so kind and an incredible host, she is the Social Media Manager for the Foundation, Podcast Producer and Host. She has her own lived experience of C-PTSD and ADHD which she brings into her conversations with guests.

Embracing our more authentic selves after an ADHD diagnosis
"You have to have a fulfilling life and learn to be more authentic instead of pretending, trying to please everyone and being embarrassed."
This week, Kate talks with esteemed psychotherapist Sari Solden. Sari has been a pioneer in counselling women and men with the strengths and struggles of ADHD for over thirty years.
She is also the author of three popular and groundbreaking books on the subject. These include Women with Attention Deficit Disorder, Journeys Through ADDulthood, and a Radical Guide for Women with ADHD, which she co-authored.
Sari's areas of specialisation include the emotional consequences of women’s executive function challenges, inattentive ADHD, and the healing process for adults who grew up with undiagnosed ADHD. Sari currently focuses on supporting and mentoring neurodiverse women mental health professionals.
During the episode, Kate and Sari spoke about:
- Taking on subliminal “she” messages that affect your view of yourself.
- Busting myths about how ADHD presents in women
- How to deal with compounding ADHD co-morbidities
- Unravelling and rediscovering yourself after an ADHD diagnosis
- Becoming our more authentic selves after a diagnosis
- Claiming space and trusting your voice after a diagnosis
- The complex layers that come with ADHD
- Shame behind the unknown of undiagnosed ADHD
- The generational and gender role shifts that are changing how women see their neurodiversity
- Creating systems to help our ADHD brains and bringing in more radical acceptance
- Choosing how you want to show up, not being defined by our neurodiversity and recognising your core self
- The power of our ADHD awareness to better deal with it day to day
You can connect with Sari and download her audio books via her website, www.sarisolden.com and on Facebook.

UFYB 254: Conditional Self-Esteem
Self-confidence goes by many names - self-love, self-esteem, self-regard. But no matter what you call it, it’s important to dig deep and examine whether yours is conditional or unconditional. When you’re constantly looking to outside factors to feel good about yourself, that’s conditional self-confidence. Conditional self-confidence has a big impact on our relationship with ourselves, but what are the larger implications?
Listen to this week’s podcast episode to learn the impact conditional self-confidence has on the way we seek out security, how it can create unhealthy patterns in our relationships with others, and how you can start cultivating unconditional self-confidence.

The Subtle Art of Appreciating ‘Difficult Beauty’
When is the last time you paused — truly paused the flow of life — to appreciate something beautiful? For as long as we know, humans have sought out beauty, believing deeply that beautiful things and experiences can enhance our lives. But what does beauty really do to us? How can it fundamentally alter our experience of the world?
Beauty is always “teaching me something about my own mind,” says the writer and philosopher Chloé Cooper Jones. In her book, “Easy Beauty,” Jones takes readers on a journey across the globe and into her intimate family life to explore what beauty has done for her and what it can potentially do for all of us.
At the core of Jones’s book — and of this conversation — is a distinction between two radically different kinds of beauty. On the one hand, there’s “easy beauty”: a Renaissance painting, a sunset, a deliciously prepared meal. Easy beauty includes the kinds of things we are taught to consider beautiful. But Jones argues there’s also a deeper form of beauty — a “difficult beauty,” which can be found in places that may initially strike us as mundane, messy, even ugly. That is, if we clear the space within our own minds long enough to look for it.
This conversation also explores how Jones’s relationship to her disabled body has changed over time, what it means to appreciate the physical world more fully, how all of us are affected by our society’s crushing physical beauty standards, how Jones has created a “neutral room” in her mind to cope with those difficult standards, what attending a Beyoncé concert taught her about “radical presence,” what a celebrity party Peter Dinklage attended revealed about how far we need to go in respecting different bodies, why it is worth it to “make friends” with the idea that we may all become disabled or incapacitated at some point, how children reflect and reveal parts of ourselves we didn’t even know existed, what advice she has for those of us who spend very little time considering beauty but could benefit from it as Jones has, and more.

Episode 44: Parenting with ADHD (Part 1)
In the first of a double-fister, the ADHD adults James and Alex discuss parenting with ADHD from a mother's perspective. As James and Alex are probably not mothers, another ringer, the brilliant Jessica, is brought in to help. As usual, the 'podcast' (liberal use of the word there) contains psychoeducation on the subject delivered by balloon head, Jessica's personal reflections on being a parent with ADHD Tax and also her 'Top Tips'. 'What did James lose this week?" returns, and Alex continues to get communication from Robert from Kidderminster as well as from one real listener while continuing to alienate our international listeners with his terrible hellos. Alex rubs his fertility in James's face and James's sperm is just 'too powerful' (apparently).

Episode 27: Adapting to an ADHD Diagnosis
In Episode 27, Alex and James discuss the challenge of adapting to a diagnosis of ADHD, and how it challenges our identity, both positively and negatively. As usual, the three poorly presented elements of psychoeducation, personal reflections and tips are covered. As usual, correspondence from listeners, probably including something from 'Robert from Kidderminster' and Alex is forced yet again to play 'What has James forgotten, lost or mislaid this week?" James tinkers with Alex's script and Alex enjoys correcting James's grammar
