Navigating Pushback in the Context of Change

Navigating Pushback in the Context of Change

In this episode, ADHD leader coach Cameron Gott explores what it means to face dismissal, discounting, and rejection from others while living with ADHD — and why that experience cuts so deep. Building on last week's discussion of Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria (RSD), Cameron shifts focus to real external pushback: the subtle and not-so-subtle ways people discount, diminish, and exclude those who are changing or simply trying to survive.

Cameron identifies the toughest spot of all — facing pushback while standing still, stuck in pure survival mode, with no sense of forward momentum. Rather than waiting for the pushback to stop (it won't), he invites listeners to redirect that energy toward even the smallest vision of change. He explores why ADHD makes this so hard — from the gap between awareness and action, to the disorientation of not knowing "which way is up" — and offers practical anchors: articulating your experience and needs, setting healthier boundaries, leaning into your islands of competence, and daring to imagine a more supportive community. The central message: if pushback is inevitable, don't face it standing still.
