12: Transition, task paralysis & Waiting mode
Coping with Transitions and Task ParalysisIn this episode, we dive into the challenges of navigating transitions and the strategies I’ve developed to make them a little easier. I share my personal experiences dealing with task paralysis—how it can feel overwhelming to even begin tasks, and how that often leads to me feeling stuck. We’ll explore practical steps I’ve put in place to ease into tasks, breaking down overwhelming projects into manageable pieces.I also discuss the unique struggle of “waiting mode,” where having an afternoon appointment disrupts my day, making it difficult to focus or start anything beforehand. We’ll talk about ways I try to manage this waiting period and tips for staying productive and grounded, even when distractions or anxiety arise.Whether you’re someone who faces similar struggles or just want to learn more about managing transitions and staying on track, this episode offers relatable insights and helpful strategies.I hope you manage to find something that resonates with youYou can find me over on my socialswww.instagram.com/whenlifebeginsat40 -inside my Autistic ADHD headwww.instagram.com/dream1ncolour-family and children's diagnoses and journey Hosted on Acast.
