## Resource

There's some evidence that ADHD brains in particular may have trouble forming habits as they're traditionally thought of. But that doesn't mean they have no value for us! This episode is about how to lean into the part of habit formation that may work for us (spoiler alert, you may need WEIRD rewards) Builds on last week's episode, Self-Awareness vs. Solutions p.s. hopefully the birdsong in the background isn't too annoying... I recorded with the windows open and didn't realize it would pick up! p.p.s. by the time you listen to this, we'll be at 1,000,000 downloads 🥳 AuDHD Flourishing resources: Transcript Doc (often a few weeks behind, but we do catch up!)
