This is Part 1 of Dr. Russell Barkley’s five steps to managing ADHD’s executive disorder - and it starts with a simple truth:
🧠 If it’s not externalised, it’s invisible
ADHD isn’t about laziness - it’s about a working memory deficit. So step one is to move important information out of the brain and into view:
✅ sticky notes
✅ whiteboards
✅ charts, signs, reminders
✅ or a paper notebook that never leaves your side
As Dr. Barkley says, even adults and women in menopause rely on the same strategy - because it works. External cues replace what the brain can’t hold, helping ADHD minds finally do what they know
💭 What’s your go-to ADHD system - paper planner, phone reminders, or sticky-note chaos?

ATWhich executive functioning skill do you struggle most with? For me it’s that shower with a hair wash. Don’t get me wrong I LOVE a good shower, it’s just all of the steps around it that make it seem like SUCH a chore. ADHD often brings along a disruptive force called executive dysfunction, which hampers our ability to plan, organize, and initiate tasks. So, when it comes to something as seemingly simple as showering, executive dysfunction delights in throwing obstacles our way.
Distractions become irresistible temptations, diverting our attention from the bathroom and into the abyss of our racing thoughts. Time seems to warp, transforming minutes into seemingly endless hours as we succumb to procrastination. The mere thought of starting a task can trigger a surge of overwhelming emotions, often leading us to avoid it altogether. #executivedysfunction #adhd #audhd #asd #autism #neurodivergent #mentalhealthawareness

DMClinical neuropsychologist Dr. Russell Barkley breaks it down: ADHD isn’t a knowledge problem—it’s a performance problem. Kids with ADHD often know exactly what to do—they just can’t consistently do it. The back of the brain holds knowledge. The front? That’s where it gets used. ADHD acts like a meat cleaver, splitting the two. So even the smartest person can make impulsive, irrational decisions—not because they lack understanding, but because their executive system can’t apply it in real-time. It’s not a skill issue—it’s a doing issue.

ADADHD & executive function ⬇️
Executive function is what helps us plan, prioritize, start tasks, manage time, regulate emotions, and follow through. In people with ADHD, these functions are impaired, which explains why we can want to do something and know it’s important, and still struggle.
We can’t decide where to begin.
We lose track of time.
We shut down from overwhelm.
Even with the best intentions and a fully mapped-out to-do list, we can still manage to get absolutely nothing done and it’s incredibly frustrating.
Here are 6 ways executive dysfunction makes life difficult for people with ADHD.
Let me know some of the ways you struggle day to day, and follow me for more relatable content about adult ADHD.

DRMost people with ADHD are trying their best… but accidentally doing things that make their symptoms way harder.
These five patterns drain dopamine, overwhelm the prefrontal cortex, and create the kind of chaos that gets blamed on ‘laziness’ or ‘lack of discipline’ — even though it’s really neuroscience.
If any of this hits home, you’re not alone.
ADHD isn’t about trying harder… it’s about understanding your brain and working with it instead of against it.

ASADHD makes it easy to start things… and so hard to finish them.
If you’ve ever launched into a new idea with full force, only to abandon it halfway through and feel ashamed—you’re not alone. You’re just navigating a brain that isn’t wired for slow, steady progress.
Goal-directed persistence is the executive function that helps us stay focused on long-term goals.
But ADHD brains thrive on:
→ novelty
→ challenge
→ passion (dopamine)
→ cooperation
→ urgency
And long-term goals don’t always give us those things after the first chapter.
✨ So what helps?
✔️ Break big goals into smaller, quick wins
✔️Use visuals to track your progress (sticker charts count!)
✔️Pair tasks with interest or movement (music, walking, fresh location)
✔️Revisit your why when motivation dips
✔️Build in external accountability without shame
You’re not struggling because you don’t care.
You’re just using strategies built for a different kind of brain.
What’s one goal you keep coming back to, even if you haven’t finished it yet?
If this (or other executive functioning) is something you’d like more support with, my Surviving to Thriving group coaching program may be a great fit for you. Comment waitlist below to be the first to know when enrollment opens next week!

PH5 tips to help manage your ADHD 🧠✨
1. Focus on movement, nutrition & sleep 🏃♀️🥗😴
It sounds basic, but these are the foundation for everything. Movement helps release that pent-up energy through your body instead of your brain (plus all the physical benefits).
Eating mostly whole, non-UPF foods makes sure you’re actually getting the nutrients you need, especially if food is one of your dopamine tools.
Sleep is the key to it all. Good sleep hygiene and a simple routine set you up for the day.
2. Create a dopamine menu 📋
This has been a game changer for getting my free time back from doomscrolling. Having a list of *go-to* feel-good activities makes it easier to start when you’re stuck in paralysis.
I’ve got a full video on this, but it’s one of the best ways to bring more fulfilment into your day.
3. Do less to do more 🎯
All-or-nothing routines work, for about a week. Then one small missed habit derails everything. A shorter, realistic routine helps you prioritise what actually matters and makes consistency possible in real life.
4. Make your environment do the heavy lifting 🏡
Set your future self up the right way. Sometimes I sleep in my gym clothes so I can just get up and go. Keep things visible, pin reminders up, write lists, reduce steps wherever you can.
Your environment is there to support you!!!
5. Work *with* your brain, not against it 🧠
You’re not lazy, your brain just works differently.
Take short, frequent breaks. Get outside to reset. Use timers, body doubling, whatever helps you.
