Alright, be honest—how many unfinished projects do you have lying around right now?
The book you swore you’d finish? Still sitting on the shelf.
The laundry you folded? Now part of the furniture.
That hobby you definitely thought would be your new personality? Yeah, that lasted a week.
If this sounds painfully relatable, welcome to the ADHD Half-Finished Club.
In this episode, we’re calling ourselves out for starting things with full enthusiasm… and then immediately losing interest.
• Why do we do this?
• What’s actually happening in our brains?
• And can we actually trick ourselves into finishing things without hating life?
Grab a drink, settle in, and let’s laugh through the chaos together.
What You’ll Hear in This Episode:
✔ The ADHD “Half-Finished” Hall of Fame – Books, hobbies, laundry… we’re exposing ourselves.
✔ Why Our Brains Do This – The science behind our shiny new project syndrome.
✔ How to Actually Finish Things – Simple ADHD-friendly hacks that actually work.
✔ The Big Takeaway – You’re not lazy. You’re not failing. You just need a different approach.
Key Takeaways
✨ Your ADHD brain isn’t broken—it just needs dopamine, urgency, and a little trickery to get things done.
✨ Not everything needs to be finished immediately. Some things can wait. Some things don’t actually need finishing at all.
✨ You’re not alone in this. If you have a house full of half-done tasks, welcome to the club.
