ADHD or Life? – New Year’s Resolutions! (Happy New Year from Adam & Donna)
🎙️ Adam and Donna are back with the first episode of 2026, and we’re doing what everyone does this time of year… talking New Year’s resolutions (and whether any human on earth actually keeps them). But first: Christmas with ADHD, the build-up, and the shock twist of the season… no meltdowns. Who even are we?

Episode Highlights:
– Christmas with ADHD: the build-up, the chaos potential… and somehow, weirdly, no meltdowns.
– The important question: who won Christmas?
– New Year chat, including Adam’s big magic show and the joy of that one perfect day where we had absolutely nothing to do (best feeling in the world).
– New Year, New Me: can anyone actually stick to resolutions, or is it just a January hobby?
– Podcast plans for 2026, plus Adam’s ongoing struggle to stay in contact with people (out of sight, out of mind… but with friends).
– The gym membership that’s basically a monthly donation
– Donna’s resolutions are surrounded by mystery (very on brand). Personal and health goals… but you’ll have to listen to find out.
– Christmas eating, and the dream of having a “caravan bag” ready for overnight stays at the drop of a hat.
– Strategies to actually keep resolutions, the classic stumbling blocks, and how ADHD can make it harder (or just… different).
– Hyperfocus, including hyperfocusing on the wrong things at exactly the wrong time.
– Work patterns, juggling, and Adam’s official limit: (spoiler alert: it’s 2).
– Couple dynamics: when reminders start sounding like nagging, and how to keep it kind.
– Donna’s “neuro-normal” take on resolutions — she used to run and wants to do it again. Does everyone fail… or do we just set ourselves up to?
– And finally: Adam gets VERY excited about vision boards and a new office that “must be completed today.” New office, new me.
We finish with our listeners’ **good, bad and ugly stories** — and we’re genuinely grateful for every one. Keep them coming, because they make this podcast feel like a proper community.
