Sunday, February 8, 2026 • Duration 39:55

Hiya – we're Nicky & Carrie, 2 ADHD coaches figuring it out together...

• What might be lacking when we feel we're being told what to do

• How our reactions can overlap with the fear of 'getting it wrong'

• Responding – not reacting

• The 'Have-a-cuppa’ rule

and, of course:

• That omnipresent fear of looking stupid!

ep 19: Sh*t – LATE again!

Season 1 · Episode 19

Sunday, August 31, 2025 • Duration 42:22

Hi – we're Nicky and Carrie, 2 ADHD coaches figuring it out together...

This episode's a bit different from our usual style – a live coaching session, with Carrie's questions assisting Nicky in delving into her very-ADHD feelings of panic tied up with being (or the fear of being) LATE – something she proudly thought she'd pretty much sorted out! During the conversation, Nicky openly and vulnerably explores some deep feelings - and makes an important discovery.

Along the way, we look at:

our mental narrative versus reality
the dreaded 'WTF Look'!
some strategies & preventative measures - and how we can approach things if & when they don't work!

A note from Nicky... we didn't release this episode when recorded in early 2024, as the sound was weirdly poor – but the latest AI tech has now transformed it (thanks, Adobe!). Also, I've been sitting, long term, with whether I actually wanted it to go live. As you can see, I've decided on balance to go ahead. Hope you find it interesting, potentially useful - and think it's worth the wait!

ep 18: My INNER CRITIC is at it again!

Season 1 · Episode 18

Wednesday, July 23, 2025 • Duration 55:38

Hi – we're Nicky and Carrie, 2 ADHD coaches figuring it out together...

So, picking up where we left off in ep.17... we briefly recap 'our Chimp', and how – with highly variable success – it tries hamfistedly to help us!

Then we look at our suite of inner voices* (with a detour about motivation), and how we can perhaps spot the origin of our infamous ‘Inner Critic'. We touch on something called Internal Family Systems and how a specific inner voice may actually be a remnant part of e.g. our 4 year old self.

We also explore how we can start to take charge, including:

“Passengers on a bus”

Increasing awareness

Interrogating the evidence

Disempowering the negative

Taking control through action

…and, of course, enlisting the assistance of our good old friend: The Pause!

**with huge thanks to Mel Robbins/The Mel Robbins Podcast ep. 287 and Dr Ethan Kross, PhD, and his book, ‘Chatter’.

ep 17: My ANXIETY Chimp's going wild!

Season 1 · Episode 17

Sunday, June 1, 2025 • Duration 42:54

Hi – we're Nicky and Carrie, 2 ADHD coaches figuring it out together...

Since you last joined us, we've both been dealing with the anxiety of preparing for important events in our lives.

So in this episode we dig into: wrestling with overwhelming logistics, unknown unknowns, fear of cataclysmic eventualities, hierarchies of need, trying too hard to think - and basically wanting to take EVERYTHING! We move on to how (and that!) we survived... notably the power of understanding and managing our emotions, including recognising our screaming 'inner-chimp' and then persuading it to go and sit quietly enjoying a nice banana....

With heartfelt thanks to Professor Steve Peters for his brilliant books, including: 'The Chimp Paradox', 'A Path Through the Jungle', and 'My Hidden Chimp' for children.
