Episode Summary

Ever found yourself wondering if you might have ADHD—or why you keep avoiding that one annoying financial task (again)? You're not alone.

In this extra-special episode, hosts Jess Schlupp-Taylor and Steve Rowe welcome their very first guest: ADHD coach and all-round legend Sarah Morgan. Together, they tackle the wild intersection of neurodivergence, procrastination, and personal finance—served with honesty, humour, and a healthy dose of real talk.

Episode Highlights

  • What ADHD actually looks like (spoiler: it’s not just hyper kids climbing walls).
  • Why impulse spending feels so good—and why adding stuff to your cart might be enough.
  • The procrastination trap, financial dread, and how to finally break the cycle.
  • The life-changing magic of a “body double”—and why doing your taxes with a friend actually works.
  • Sarah’s hilarious 18-month saga of losing her driving licence (yes, it involves chocolate bars with faces).
  • Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria (RSD)—and why some ADHDers take feedback like a gut punch.

PLUS: A completely non-scientific theory called Sockology reveals what your socks say about your mental state. Warning: there are hedgehogs, bird mix-ups, and low-key shade being thrown. It’s a lot.

Whether you have ADHD, think you might, or just want to stop ghosting your pension paperwork—this episode is packed with insight, laugh-out-loud moments, and practical tools to help you take back control of your mind and money.
