    What if the real reason you’re spiraling isn’t the task, the deadline, or the flop—but your nervous system?In this episode, I’m joined by my husband Ryan for a candid convo about fake safety vs. real safety, what it means to feel grounded in your body when everything feels like it’s falling apart, and why regulating your nervous system before taking action changes everything.We dive into performance pressure at work, ADHD spirals, and why many of us only feel safe after the thing is solved—aka conditional safety. I also walk you through how the Untamed Freedom Formula helps you build real, unconditional safety inside your body using the four phases: Relearn, Reflect, Release, and Respond.You’ll hear how Ryan applied parts work (hello, inner watchdog 🐶), real-life examples from his high-stress corporate job, and why crying, swaying, or humming might be the real productivity hacks no one’s talking about.If you’ve ever felt like you were spiraling over something that “shouldn’t be a big deal,” this episode is a must-listen.🔍 In this episode, you’ll learn:What fake safety looks like (and how we mistake it for regulation) (1:55)How tying your worth to performance starts way before adulthood (9:13)The concept of “the inner watchdog” and why talking to your parts works (4:11)What parts work actually is and how ADHD Untamed teaches it in practice (5:44)Ryan’s experience navigating performance pressure as a corporate recruiter (7:36)How real safety can’t be found in external wins (like a filled role or a viral post) (11:15)Why nervous system regulation isn’t about logic (it’s about embodiment) (14:56)The four phases of the Untamed Freedom Formula and how to apply them (15:45)The analogy of “the overflowing cup” and what to do when you’re about to snap (23:01)Tools that actually help: humming, rocking, compassion, curiosity, and guided audios (18:31)🌱 Ready to go deeper?Enrollment for ADHD Untamed is OPEN!This is the only program that blends science, spirituality, and real talk to help you radically accept your ADHD, stop self-abandoning, and start building a life that works for your brain.✨ Get instant access to the Untamed Freedom Formula✨ Weekly live coaching calls with Ana✨ Somatic tools, guided meditations, and more✨ Private community + podcast for on-the-go supportJoin now: https://www.anaurban.com/adhd-untamed🎧 Listen + SubscribeIf this episode resonated, share it with a friend, leave a review, or tag me on Instagram @ana.urban.coach and tell me your biggest takeaway!🎙️ The Wildly Different Podcast is here to remind you that you're not broken.

  • Ep 19. The Real Problem Isn’t ADHD. It’s Self-Abandonment
    What if everything you’ve been told about ADHD is wrong?What if your brain isn’t broken—but simply wired for a different kind of brilliance?In this episode, we’re throwing out the outdated, shame-filled narratives around ADHD and replacing them with something revolutionary: wholeness.In this episode, I’m walking you through the Untamed Freedom Formula, a four-phase process designed to help you stop fighting yourself and start embracing how your mind actually works. We’ll talk about curiosity, acceptance, self-compassion, and willingness—and how these four simple shifts can change everything, from your productivity to your relationships to your self-worth.If you’ve ever felt like you’re “too much” or “not enough” at the same time, this episode is for you.In this episode, you’ll learn about:Shame spiral, system hopping, and self-abandonment are the bigger issues. (1:00)Analogy: Painting over a water stain instead of fixing the leak → Treating symptoms instead of root causes. (2:30)Many are working hard yet feel like they’re failing. (4:00)The real issue: Fighting "invisible math" with shame as a compass. (5:45)Developed after being diagnosed with ADHD at 19. (7:00)Phase 1: Relearn (10:00)Phase 2: Reflect (12:30)Phase 3: Release (15:30)Phase 4: Respond (17:30)ADHD isn’t a secret but a part of a person’s system. You don't need to tell others about ADHD for them to understand or tiptoe around you. (19:00)Ontology refers to understanding the true nature of something. In this case, it’s about exploring ADHD's real nature instead of trying to "fix" it. (20:00)The traditional view of ADHD as a disorder of executive function is flawed. (22:00)ADHD is a form of neurodivergence, not a failure to fit into societal expectations. (24:00)The “theology” of executive function promotes obedience and productivity, which might not work for ADHD brains. (25:15)The internalized belief that ADHD individuals are lazy or undisciplined stems from societal pressure to conform to a rigid, linear, and productive mold.
