Join the waitlist for the ADHD Consistency Collective!

Are you constantly stuck in negative thought spirals, feeling overstimulated or emotionally drained? Your social media habits might be a bigger piece of the puzzle than you realize—especially for ADHD and neurodivergent brains. In this episode, we're breaking down how algorithm-driven content affects your mental health, what it’s doing to your dopamine levels, and how to start curating your feed to support—not sabotage—your well-being. This is a judgment-free, empowering look at mindful content consumption, with practical tips you can start using today.

🎧 In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • [00:50] Why what you consume affects what you think—especially for ADHDers stuck in rumination loops

  • [01:43] The dopamine trap: how ADHD brains often chase big emotional hits

  • [02:18] How emotionally intense content (like crime or drama shows) fuels anxiety and dysregulation

  • [03:17] Why shifting your algorithm isn’t about restriction—it’s about intention

  • [03:44] The easiest platform to start with (spoiler: it’s probably TikTok)

  • [04:00] 💬 Quick Invite: Join the waitlist for the ADHD Consistency Collective group coaching program

  • [05:20] How to “teach” your algorithm what you want to see

  • [06:30] Balancing dramatic content with supportive content that aligns with your goals

  • [07:44] The power of doing things with your hands for real-life dopamine boosts

  • [08:29] Why mindful content choices are empowering—not restrictive
