ADHD Burnout: Overcommitting, Overcompensating, OVER IT!
Constantly overcommitting, overcompensating, over-explaining, and over-apologising? We certainly are... and we're absolutely OVER IT! How do intensely 'busy brained' ADHDers find 'balance' to avoid Burnout?...asking for a friend! ;) And I'm joined by one of my closest... come on an ADHDAF 'safari' to Blackpool Promenade for a chinwag with Mother of House of Wingz: Aishley Bell-Docherty, as we attempt to extinguish the fiery flames instead of fanning the ever glowing embers of Burnout!
...And you can join us in real life for The Blackpool Style Assembly, an immersive multi-catwalk event, boycotting fast fashion and championing neurodivergent and Blackpool creatives to raise funds for ADHDAF+ & Skool of Street Charities.
One ticket gets you entry to BOTH the fashion show (with an ADHDAF Emporium grand finale) and the ADHDAF Sunday Social at the Ferny, where raising ADHD awareness meets Bingo and Karaoke. Grab your ticket HERE
