Episode Details

In this episode, I’m joined by Sarah Bartlett for a really honest conversation about self-awareness, psychometrics, masking, ADHD, and what it actually looks like to build a life and business that fits who you really are.

We talk about how tools like psychometrics can help you understand your default patterns, strengths and needs more clearly — not so you can put yourself in a box, but so you can meet yourself with more compassion and make choices that work better for you. Sarah also shares her experience of being late-diagnosed with ADHD, the impact of spending years being who she thought other people wanted her to be, and how understanding herself more deeply has helped her begin to take the mask off. 

We also get into the messy reality of self-employment, especially when structure both helps and frustrates you, the guilt that can come from not working in a “normal” way, and why knowing yourself better can help you build more support, accountability and connection into your life. 

It’s a thoughtful, unfiltered conversation about identity, strengths, self-trust and giving yourself permission to do things differently.

In this episode, we cover:

• how psychometrics can support self-awareness
• late-diagnosed ADHD and masking
• why focusing only on weaknesses doesn’t work
• building a business around your strengths
• the challenge of structure, freedom and accountability
• understanding yourself with more compassion 

Sarah joins me for a warm and honest conversation. If you’ve ever felt like you’re trying to do life in a way that doesn’t quite fit, this episode will really speak to you.
