When you have ADHD, it is not unusual to forget objects or events. I even forget the names of the people I meet and I'm just as likely to forget a conversation that I really enjoyed as much as one that was a total sleeper.

If you are like me, you may also have struggled with feeling anxious, being self-conscious, embarrassed, and ashamed about memory limitations, especially with respect to interpersonal relationships. 

If you feel afraid to offend, hurt, or disappoint people, over the years, this can take a toll on self-esteem. I also know some people who simply start pulling back from others and playing small in their business and life in order to avoid letting others and themselves down because their memory is so unreliable. 

How then should we handle being forgetful? Today, I share with you some of the steps I took to overcome anxiety & disappointment due to forgetfulness.

From The Podcast

The Driven Woman Entrepreneur

Hey driven woman entrepreneur! You love owning your own business, but staying focused, managing your mindset, and making all the decisions on your own can be a challenge. Join business strategist, mentor, coach, and former psychotherapist Diann Wingert, for your weekly dose of no-BS straight talk that cuts through the hype and false promises and delivers both insights and actionable advice every week. The Driven Woman Entrepreneur Podcast alternates between straight-shooting solo episodes, guest interviews with other successful female solopreneurs, and client success stories of women who have worked with Diann to transform their businesses and mindset. Diann works with established female solopreneurs: coaches, consultants, creatives, and independent professionals who are ready to lean into what truly makes them different so they can stand out from the crowd and create a profitable, sought-after solopreneur business. Her signature framework, The Boss Up Breakthrough, was designed to address the specific problems that hold us back once we are a few years into solopreneurship: struggling to ask for and get the price we want and the clients we want, clearly and confidently communicating what makes us different and creating the kind of boundaries that protect our time, energy and talent. Oh, and because this question gets asked a lot, Diann does work with clients of all genders, even though her marketing is directed toward women. Her website is https://www.diannwingertcoaching.com The podcast has an E rating, not because there is an excess of F-bombs in every episode (there aren’t) but because some listeners prefer to avoid learning from those who include colorful language in their self-expression. CAUTION: Regular consumption of this podcast is likely to be detrimental to your limiting beliefs and may result in the enlargement of your perspective, profits, and potential for success. If you are ready to go from driven but distracted to focused, fired up and flame retardant, you're in the right place. Check it out and decide for yourself!
