All in ADHD and Money
Out of sight, out of mind is a common ADHD trait that is a big challenge for me (you can tell by looking at my coffee table). That’s why visual reminders can be incredibly effective in keeping your finances on track. Whether it’s a sticky note on your computer or a chart on your wall, these reminders can help you stay focused on your financial goals.
Our brains are wired to chase new ideas and excitement, making it tough to stay on top of routine tasks like budgeting and saving. But don't worry—I've got you covered with some practical financial management hacks that will make the process a lot less overwhelming and maybe even (dare I say) a bit enjoyable.
Running a business can be a wild rollercoaster ride, especially when you’ve got ADHD. We’re natural-born idea generators and risk-takers, which are great for running a business, but managing the financial side of things can feel like a daunting task. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by invoices, taxes, or if the thought of tracking your expenses has you in avoidance mode, you’re not alone.
Why it helps: Late payments have the biggest impact on bringing down your credit score. Automatic payments ensure you never miss a due date. Partnering automatic payments with a plan for your money is key (more on that later).
This not only prevents forgetfulness, which is a common ADHD challenge but also keeps your payment history spotless, a crucial component of your credit score.
And PLEASE read all the way to the end because the first part you’ve probably heard before but when you partner it with the second part, that is where the magic happens! ✨
First things first, let's talk about our monthly cycle. Our hormones are constantly in flux, like every damn day! Estrogen and progesterone levels rise and fall throughout the month, and these fluctuations can impact our ADHD symptoms in surprising ways.
