Emily Torres on Doing Things Differently with ADHD

Join us for another episode in our series, Doing Things Differently, as we dissect navigating a newfound neurodivergent diagnosis with our lovely guest, Emily Torres, from The Good Trade.

Emily is the Editorial Director at The Good Trade, a sustainable lifestyle publication where she oversees content development and audience growth. Emily is also a writer, a gamer, and an endless trier-of-new-things. You can usually find her in her colorful Los Angeles apartment, hanging out with her rabbits and cat.

In this episode, we cover:

  • How various aspects of ADHD can surface in partnership dynamics and strategies for managing ADHD, self-worth, and embracing support

  • The connection between ADHD and perfectionism, all-or-nothing thinking, and the need to find balance between personal and work identities

  • Emily’s thoughts on the impact of capitalism and the amount of time spent on work, particularly for squiggly brained and neurodivergent folks

  • The impact of ADHD on self-perception and cultivating self-trust

The Daily Good was recently nominated for a Webby! Check it out!
