#4 ADHD, Overwhelm & Food

Helen Lawal Season 1 Episode 4

This episode is for ADHDers who feel that food is a struggle. 

Join me as we dive into the overwhelm so many ADHD women experience around food and why it’s not your fault. From executive dysfunction to decision fatigue, we explore the invisible barriers that can make cooking, planning, and eating well feel so difficult.

In this episode, I’ll discuss:

  • The relationship between ADHD, executive function and meal planning 
  • How overwhelm can get in the way of our healthy eating and weight loss goals  
  • A mindset shift that changed everything for me 

If you’ve ever opened a fridge full of food and felt overwhelmed and frozen in the moment, unable to take action, this episode is for you.


If you are an ADHD Women and looking for 1:1 support with healthy eating, nutrition and improving your relationship with food check out my 12 week 1:1 programme here.
