Flip the Script: Rewriting Your Story Series

What if a hard day isn't the end of your story...but just a plot twist!?

In this episode, we're talking about what it means to flip the script when your ADHD brain gets stuck in a hard moment, a big feeling, or a mistake. You will learn why you don't have to wait until everything is fixed to start writing a better story- AND why a hard day doesn't mean you are going backwards. 

You will better understand how we tend to be "right now" thinkers and learn how to flip the script to do more "future self thinking!" You need to tell your future self what your page/ next tiny step will be... 

Flip the script toolkit:

1. Practice a pause: Is this a hard moment or is this who I am...
2. Remember (after finding calm/regulation) that your story isn't finished. A mistake isn't the ending. A meltdown isn't who you are!
3. Imagine what you want your future self to do...
4. Choose one tiny next step...

Let's take an intentional breath, stay curious, and let's start imaging what you want your next chapter to look like. You get keep writing, because your story is still being written!
