OCT 19, 202641 MIN

Description

Forgotten subscriptions, late fees, food rotting in the fridge, buying things you already own, and paying $40 for takeaway because cooking feels like an Olympic sport - those are just a few examples of the colloquial ADHD tax - all the extra money we end up spending because our brains work a little differently. In this episode, we unpack the financial consequences of ADHD, from impulsive purchases and procrastination to time blindness, executive dysfunction and the cost of convenience. We share our own ADHD tax moments, explore the shame that can come with money struggles, and also share your ADHD experiences (join our Reddit to be part of the conversation!)
