Ep 149: ADHD or Burnout: You're Not Distracted, You're Overloaded

ADHD or Burnout?

You’re not distracted — you’re overloaded.

So many high-achieving women are walking around thinking they have a focus problem… when what they actually have is a capacity problem.

This week on Journey to Joy Live, as we begin Mental Health Awareness month, I’m joined by Breanna Perry, LCSW of Rooted Swan Wellness, LLC, and we’re breaking down:

- The difference between ADHD symptoms and burnout

- Why chronic stress can mimic executive dysfunction

- How overload impacts your brain, motivation, and productivity

- What to do when you’re mentally exhausted but still expected to perform

If you’ve been saying, “Why can’t I focus?”

This conversation might change the question to:

“What am I carrying that’s too heavy?”
