Is It ADHD or Anxiety? or is It Both? With Nicole

Updated: May 30


If you live with ADHD or anxiety, you’ve probably found yourself creating massive to-do lists, struggling to get through them, and feeling completely drained by the end of the day. Maybe you beat yourself up when your energy crashes or try to power through anyway—only to end up burned out. Sound familiar?


In this episode of the A Healthy Push Podcast, I’m joined once again by licensed therapist Nicole Mendizabal to talk about how to better align your schedule with your energy—especially if you're neurodivergent or prone to anxiety.

We dive deep into why it’s so important to work with your brain and not against it. Nicole shares how slowing down, checking in with yourself, and practicing self-compassion can help you stop the cycle of burnout. She also explains how to assess your capacity each day, build realistic to-do lists, and give yourself permission to take breaks (yes, even when you're feeling "on a roll").


Here’s what we cover in this episode:

  • Why people with ADHD and anxiety often struggle with self-trust and energy regulation

  • How to check in with yourself and align your tasks with your current capacity

  • The importance of building in breaks—and resisting the urge to do “all the things” when you feel good

  • Why energy ebbs and flows, and how to stop judging yourself for needing rest

  • What “Bare Minimum Mondays” are and how they’ve helped me avoid burnout

  • The connection between productivity and self-worth, and how to break the pattern

  • How ignoring your energy leads to burnout, and the long road back to recovery


You’ll hear me share my personal experience with burnout and how I’ve shifted the way I approach my schedule—especially after realizing how much I was pushing myself without compassion.


If you're ready to stop overloading yourself, be more in tune with your energy, and actually enjoy your days more, this episode is for you!
