Vagus Nerve Magic: How ADHD brains can find calm

The ADHD Skills Lab

What do you know about the Autonomic Nervous System and its connection to ADHD? In this week’s episode of The ADHD Skills Lab, we welcome resident expert Abbie J. for a bite-sized yet powerful breakdown of how the ANS impacts emotional regulation in ADHD.

Curious about what's inside?

  • Discover the different nervous systems at play, explained in a simple, digestible way
  • Why "we’re meant to be dysregulated"—and how to shift out of it
  • What micro-moments are and how they can change your day
  • Learn to be seaweed—a grounding technique that uses the slowest, most subtle movements to reset your nervous system


Thanks for being here! Until next time,
Sarah Russell (Podcast Producer)

P.S. Skye here—email me "GROUNDING" at skye@unconventionalorganisation.com or DM me on IG, and I’ll send you my free article on grounding techniques for ADHD!

Diagnosed with ADHD at the start of her PhD, Skye Waterson spent years researching what actually works and writing about it for thousands of founders. The pattern she kept finding: ADHD business owners don't have a focus problem, they have an operations problem, because the whole business runs through their own head. Now she and her husband, former programmer Robert Waterson, work as fractional COOs for those founders. They find the bottleneck, hire the fix, and build the system that holds.
