Episode 22 - The importance of boundaries for those living with ADHD

Episode Overview

In this episode, I’ll be discussing the challenges faced by people with ADHD, particularly the tendency to become "people pleasers" to fit in.

I’ll go over the importance of setting boundaries, which are often neglected by those with ADHD. Boundaries define acceptable behaviour and help manage relationships.

I provide examples of various types of boundaries, such as physical, intellectual, emotional, time, sexual, and financial, and explains how to communicate them effectively.
