Summary
Moving is supposed to be exciting. So why does it feel like your brain is falling apart? In this episode, Jess and Jeannine talk about the side of moving that people rarely discuss executive function overload, decision fatigue, emotional exhaustion, grief, and the loss of the routines that help ADHD brains function. From crying over missing toothbrushes to discovering boxes that haven’t been unpacked in years, they share honest stories about why moving can feel so much harder for women with ADHD than anyone seems to understand. Together, they explore: • Why moving overwhelms ADHD brains • Time blindness and unrealistic moving timelines • The dopamine-fueled excitement of a fresh start • Grief, change, and losing familiar routines • How your brain rebuilds its mental map after a move • Why struggling during a move is not a personal failure If you’ve ever wondered why a move can leave you feeling emotionally wrecked, exhausted, or completely overwhelmed, this episode is for you. Because moving isn’t just about changing your address it’s about rebuilding your entire operating system.
