## Resource

What if the word productive isn’t just about getting things done — but a reflection of centuries of moral judgment, capitalist pressure, and deeply internalized self-worth stories? (I mean, duh). In this beautifully honest and thoughtful conversation, Nicole is joined by executive function coach Dr. Taylor Allbright to untangle the heavy (and often conflicting) layers of what productivity means — especially for high-achieving folks with ADHD, creatives, perfectionists, and anyone tired of tying their value to their output. Taylor and Nicole explore how the meaning of “productive” has evolved from fruitful fields to frazzled calendars and offer a gentler, more compassionate vision of what it could mean instead. In This Episode, You’ll Discover… What 1828’s dictionary can teach us about productivity and self-worth today Why procrastination might actually be productive (just not how you think) The ADHD-perfectionism loop and how it distorts your sense of accomplishment A radical reframe for resting when you feel like you “should” be working How Taylor defines “leading your ideas into reality” — and why it’s more fruitful than chasing gold stars Further Research: Download Taylor’s Five-Minute ADHD Reset → taylorallbright.com Read up on Dr. Devon Price, whose work on laziness and productivity is referenced in the episode For more episodes mentioned, check out: “Fallow” with Sarah Loertscher (ep. 21) & “Trust” with Taylor Lecours (ep. 25) Ways to Contact or Connect with Taylor: Website + resources: https://taylorallbright.com/ Instagram: @taylorallbrightcoaching Sign up for her newsletter to get practical ADHD support + new coaching offerings Connect with the podcast team at itsallpoetry.podcast@gmail.com Sign up for weekly marketing prompts that don’t feel gross https…
