We’ve all been told “success is on the other side of consistency.” Books like The Compound Effect make it sound like the only way forward is to stick to a habit perfectly, forever.

But what if that’s not true for you? What if consistency is nearly impossible and beating yourself up about it is doing more damage than good?

In this episode, I share what I’ve learned (with ADHD and from hundreds of high-achieving clients) about why traditional consistency advice doesn’t always work and the surprising reframe that can actually make you more consistent by trying less hard to be consistent.

🎯 In this episode we riff on:

 ↠ Why “be consistent” advice leaves so many of us stuck in shame

↠ How ADHD brains (and high achievers) are wired for uneven energy

↠ Why forcing consistency often backfires and fuels burnout

↠ The fast recovery strategy that actually builds momentum

↠ How to set realistic expectations by checking your daily energy

↠ Why lowering the bar can leave you feeling more accomplished

↠ The mantra that keeps me grounded: “I won’t miss two.”
