62: Improve Your ADHD Working Memory Without Apps or Lists

Your memory keeps failing you, and you can't figure out why. You forget why you walked into the room, lose your train of thought mid-sentence, and miss steps in tasks you've done a hundred times. This episode is for the adult with ADHD who's tired of feeling like their brain just won't cooperate.

I'm breaking down what's really happening with ADHD working memory, why fight or flight and cortisol make it significantly worse, and why regulation, not another system or app, is where the real improvement comes from.
