If you’ve ever looked at your bank balance and thought “What the actual f*ck just happened?” - this episode’s for you.
This week I sat down with ADHD coach Ben Cook to unpack why so many neurodivergent people feel “shit with money” - and what’s actually underneath that shame spiral.
From people-pleasing purchases to impulse spending as emotional regulation, we get into the real stories behind the ADHD tax (and no, it’s not just water bottles and Roblox).
We also chat about:
- The identity crisis of a late diagnosis (and how it rewrites your past)
- Why so many ADHDers burn out in ‘cutthroat’ careers like sales and recruitment
- How emotional dysregulation drives addictive spending
- Teaching kids about money without passing on the shame
- Why self-diagnosis and awareness can be just as powerful as a formal label
- And yes… I give Ben a loving nudge about finally showing up on TikTok
This one’s full of raw honesty, laughs, and practical takeaways for anyone navigating money, mindset, or visibility with a spicy brain.
