  • Doing It the Way Your Brain Actually Works (561)

    Doing It the Way Your Brain Actually Works (561)
    Feb 5 2026

    What if the reason you haven't finished the thing you keep thinking about isn't motivation, discipline, or follow-through — but fit?

    In this episode, Eric is joined by Katherine Mutti Driscoll, PhD, an AuDHD coach, educator, and author, for a conversation that starts with writing a book and quickly becomes something much bigger: how neurodivergent adults actually get meaningful work done.

    They explore why so many ADHD and AuDHD adults carry "someday projects" for years, how structure (not willpower) turns intention into action, and why unmasking isn't just about identity — it's about designing systems that work with your nervous system instead of against it.

    Writing is the case study.
    Adaptation is the point.

    In This Episode, We Talk About

    • Why motivation isn't the real problem for ADHD and AuDHD adults

    • How an interest-based nervous system shapes creativity and follow-through

    • The role of structure, deadlines, and external accountability in finishing big projects

    • ADHD, autism, and the balance between novelty and predictability

    • Unmasking your process and letting go of "normal" ways of working

    • Why you don't have to love the process to do meaningful work

    • Perfectionism, imposter syndrome, and surviving the one-star review

    • Dictation, movement, printing drafts, and other non-traditional workflows

    • How support, containers, and community make progress possible

    A Key Takeaway

    You don't need to become more disciplined.
    You need a container that fits.

    When the system works for your brain, the work has a chance to happen.

  • 560 How to Finish Anything with Paulette Perhach

    560 How to Finish Anything with Paulette Perhach
    Jan 22 2026
    If you've ever had a week where your intentions were solid… and your follow-through vanished into the void, you're not alone. In this episode, Eric is joined by writer, teacher, and ADHD coach Paulette Perhach, who shares the FINISH framework: a simple, ADHD-friendly approach to actually completing projects, building consistency, and getting unstuck. Paulette's take is refreshingly honest: ADHD can feel like the superpower and the kryptonite at the same time. She talks about getting diagnosed at 38, learning to ask for accommodations without shame, and building systems that support creative work… even when your brain fights you every step of the way. This conversation is part practical strategy, part nervous-system-friendly encouragement, and very "you're not broken, you're under-supported." ✅ In This Episode, You'll Learn: Why ADHD brains often need "fake stakes" (engineered urgency) to follow through How to break big goals into small increments that create momentum The importance of nixing distractions (without relying on willpower) How to protect hyperfocus and use it intentionally instead of accidentally Why community and body doubling are so powerful for ADHD How self-compassion becomes a real strategy, not just a nice idea What to do when you're having a "bad brain day" and can't access your usual tools 🧠 The FINISH Framework (Six Elements to Finish Anything) Paulette breaks down the acronym FINISH: F — Fake Stakes ADHD motivation often needs emotional urgency. Fake stakes are "real enough" accountability: deadlines, commitments, public accountability, or putting something on the calendar that makes it harder to ghost your own goal. I — Increment Instead of "write the book," aim for 500 words a day. Small daily targets create dopamine, progress, and trust. N — Nix Distractions This is about designing your environment so you don't have to wrestle your brain all day long. Tools like app blockers (Freedom App) and external reminders can support focus. I — Immerse Make space to hyperfocus on purpose by doing the planning/admin work ahead of time. Paulette calls this a weekly "writer's refresh" to calm the nervous system and reduce background stress. S — Share Community matters. Body doubling matters. Doing things with other people (even silently) can dramatically increase follow-through. H — Hype This one is about self-talk and emotional regulation. Exercise, meditation, and kindness toward yourself aren't luxuries, they're performance tools for ADHD brains. 🔥 Standout Moments Paulette's line: "My version of consistency is that I get back up every time I fall down." The difference between luxury vs. accommodation, especially when traveling Eric's take on requesting extra time to board flights and why it can be a legitimate accommodation The idea that shame doesn't create change (it creates shutdown) Why ADHD-friendly success often looks like iteration, not perfection 🎧 ADHD-Friendly Takeaway If your brain only gives you one usable step today, let it be this: Pick the smallest thread you can hang onto to stay connected to the work. Open the document. Read one paragraph. Write one sentence. Show up for one increment. That counts. That builds trust. 👤 About Paulette Perhach Paulette Perhach is a writer, teacher, and ADHD coach who helps writers and creatives build sustainable, fulfilling creative lives.

If you get it, you get it. Eric does a fantastic job of making the listener feel comfortable and has helped enormously in my journey to become more informed on the topic of ADHD. He is witty and charismatic. His professional knowledge is delivered in a comprehensible manner, so that learning is made seem conversational.

I really enjoy listening to this podcast.

I love his podcast! The people he talks to have the courage to speak about what we are going through ourselves and he is an excellent coach too! take a chance and believe in him as he is living proof of finding who he is and showing you how to find yourself too.

Listen if you want to learn how to help yourself!

ADHD ReWired is always helpful and informative but this episode I think is for everyone. Chronic stress (real or imagined) is pervasive in modern society and often the root cause of so many of our challenges and chronic “idiopathic” symptoms. While the podcast is specifically about ADHD and other neurodiverence, the content is frequently applicable to everyone, this episode in particular. I highly recommend you give it a listen and pass it on.

On point and globally helpful
