Why do some people struggle to follow routines, complete simple tasks or maintain consistent habits, even when they know exactly what they need to do? And could what is often labelled as laziness or a lack of discipline be something more?
In this episode of Ayurvedic Healing & Beyond, Dr Vignesh Devraj speaks with Sidanta Goggate about ADHD, neurodivergence and the different ways people experience focus, motivation, overwhelm and everyday life. Drawing from her personal experiences and work in the wellness space, Sidanta shares how exploring ADHD helped her understand patterns she had experienced throughout her life.
The conversation explores the difference between being unable to focus and having a highly selective focus, why seemingly simple tasks can feel overwhelming, and how hyperfocus can sometimes lead to burnout.
The discussion also looks at women’s health, hormonal changes and why ADHD traits may be misunderstood as anxiety, burnout or other concerns.
