S1 E7 ADHD's Biggest Lie: You're either perfect or failing

ADHD loves extremes. All or nothing, perfect or broken. In episode 7, Jess and Jeannine unpack the sneaky illusion of black-and-white thinking and how it shapes everything from work to relationships to self-worth.

They dig into why women with ADHD are especially vulnerable to this trap. The role of rejection sensitivity, executive function overload, and decades of masking that hard-wire perfectionism into identity.

With humor, honesty, and a little chaos, they call out the myth that “good enough” isn’t enough and remind listeners that the gray area isn’t boring, it’s freedom.
