Скачать или смотреть ADHD Women: Your Working Memory Is Overloaded (Not Your Willpower)

Why does changing your behavior feel so hard — even when you know what to do?

If you’ve tried habits, routines, or systems like Atomic Habits and still struggle to follow through, you’re not lazy and you’re not lacking willpower — especially if you have ADHD.

In this video, I explain why change feels exhausting for ADHD brains and why habits only work when they reduce cognitive load, not when they rely on discipline or motivation.

As a psychologist with over 25 years of experience working with ADHD — and lived experience inside an ADHD brain — I see this pattern constantly. People understand the ideas. They’ve read the books. But daily life still feels overwhelming.

In this video, you’ll learn:

Why overwhelm isn’t about doing too much — it’s about holding too much

How limited working memory affects follow-through in ADHD

Why habits help when they move decisions out of your head and into automation

Why information alone doesn’t lead to change

Why support matters more than motivation for ADHD brains

This video is especially for moms and adults with ADHD who feel exhausted by trying to “do better” and are tired of blaming themselves when change doesn’t stick.

The goal isn’t more effort.
It’s reducing the mental load your brain is carrying — so change becomes possible instead of exhausting.
