Some of us don’t stumble across ready-made communities. Some of us have to build them - and today’s guest knows a thing or two about that. Today I am joined by the one and only Alexis Lee – Founder of Style Me Sunday, author of 'Feeling Myself', community leader (Black Enough, Healing Myself), psychotherapist in training and apparently, the only person who could get me talking about sex without wanting to crawl under the table. We dive into it all — the stuff nobody taught us growing up. From convent school guilt, to figuring out what love really means later in life, to how shutting down the sex chat only fuels more shame. We also get into how ADHD messes with body image, self-esteem, intimacy... and basically, how it all ties back to connection and community. From setting up a spontaneous fishing community (yep, you read that right) to navigating the chaos of daily life, Alexis shares her honest take on what it actually means to live authentically. 🧡 ADHD, sex, shame and why it’s so tangled up in how we see ourselves 🧡 Building your own community when none of the ones out there feel right 🧡 Dissociation, energy crashes and the bits of ADHD nobody claps for 🧡 Breaking free from rigid rules and finding your own rhythm 🧡 How the sea - and a good rant - can do wonders for your soul This episode is for anyone who’s tired of trying to fit a mould that was never made for them, who’s craving real connection and who’s ready to own their messy, beautiful story. 🧡 🎧 Listen now!

ADHD COACHING IT’S TIME TO TURN YOUR ADHD STRUGGLES INTO STRENGTHS AND SHOW UP IN THE WAY YOU WERE ALWAYS MEANT TO!
Have you ever felt the need to change who you are in order to fit in? me too! And I’ve spent so many years hectically running around this world trying to be everything and everyone else but my true myself Party girl, house wife, rebel, addict, yogi…. To name a few Hoping that eventually, something would work and something would fix me and make me normal… None of it ever did.
But two things in my life that have allowed me to live a more meaningful and authentic life and that is Yoga & My ADHD Diagnosis, which is why I am on a Mission to support as many individuals with ADHD to turn their struggle into strength with ADHD through Movement & ADHD Coaching.

Do you have a dream you keep talking yourself out of?
Do you ever wonder how your ADHD impacts your sex life?You are not alone. ADHD doesn't magically switch off when the clothes come off.
Do you think you're too chaotic to meditate? Attempted it and failed, time and time again
How many times have you thought about closing down your business this month? This week? Today?Every single hand went up when I asked four female ADHD founders that question. Because here's what nobody posts on Instagram: running a business with ADHD is the quickest way to figure out how your ADHD shows up as both a struggle AND a strength.In this raw, honest, and hilarious live panel, I sat down with Jess (Sacred and Wild), Cat (Yogi Bare), Katie France (Love Bomb Bags), and Natt (Waking Dreams) to talk about the reality of being a female founder with ADHD.We talk about people-pleasing that nearly cost Cat her entire business, Katie's struggle with posting out the right bags to the right people (executive function is REAL), why having two ADHD brains in business together means you might "accidentally commit fraud," and how Jess's perfectionism has kept years of work hidden from the world.But we also talk about why none of us go back. Why the 9-5 isn't an option for brains wired like ours. Why freedom matters more than money. And why, despite everything, we keep showing up.Natt drops the mic with: "Your ADHD would not even be a talking point without capitalism."And Jess reminds us all: "I see the work people put out into the world and I just think, bloody well done. I don't judge it. I just really respect people trying and just being out there doing it."This one's for every woman who's ever felt like giving up but keeps showing up anyway.IN THIS EPISODE:✨ Why we all threaten to quit (regularly)✨ How people-pleasing can cost you everything✨ Executive function struggles are not stupidity✨ The reality of working with other ADHDers✨ How perfectionism keeps you stuck✨ Why we can't go back to corporate burnout✨ The real reason we keep going (it's not money)✨ Why capitalism makes ADHD "problematic"✨ Taking a day off is productive, actually✨ Giving yourself the same grace you give other womenFour incredible women. Four thriving businesses. Four ADHD brains refusing to dim down.Generator. Alive. Colourful. Chaotic.Not broken. Not struggling. Not failing.Bloody well done for just doing it.
