INFORMAZIONI SU QUESTO EPISODIO
Does money admin disappear from your brain the moment it is out of sight? Do you put off opening an email, forget a renewal or buy something for the quick dopamine hit and wonder later why you wanted it?
This week Rebecca is joined by Katie Mansey for a practical conversation about the ways ADHD and other neurodivergent traits can affect money, from impulse spending and avoiding financial admin to working memory, shame and the hidden costs of forgetfulness.
Rebecca and Katie share examples from their own lives, including missed insurance admin, piles of paperwork, online shopping baskets and the systems they use to make things easier. They also look at how neurodiversity can affect confidence at work, asking for pay rises or charging appropriate fees.
The conversation finishes with simple ways to work with your brain rather than against it: automating what you can, making money visible, using separate pots, scheduling a regular money date and getting support when you need it.
In this episode:
● How ADHD, dyslexia and autism can affect working memory, routines and financial admin
● The "ADHD tax": missed renewals, forgotten subscriptions, late payments and other hidden costs
● Why shame, overwhelm and avoidance can make money tasks harder to deal with
● Impulse spending, dopamine and using a cooling-off period before buying
● How neurodiversity can affect confidence at work, pay rises and what you charge
● Practical ways to automate money, use separate pots and make finances more visible
● Money dates, accountability, body doubling and other ways to build support around you
