EP 189. Navigating Weight Loss with ADHD: A Conversation with Jennifer Watts

In this enlightening episode, I engage in a candid conversation with Jennifer Watts, an ADHD weight loss coach. We delve into our individual journeys, discuss our connection through Instagram, and open up about our ADHD diagnoses. Jennifer shares her compelling story of how the ADHD diagnosis served as a transformative moment, shedding light on the unique challenges and connections between ADHD and weight loss.

Throughout the episode, we provide valuable insights on various topics, including:

• The challenges of hunger cues
• The impact of hyperfocus on daily life
• The emotional journey of discovering and accepting our neurodivergent selves

Whether you have ADHD or are simply seeking a fresh perspective on weight loss, this episode is filled with relatability and a touch of humor. It caters to everyone looking to break free from the diet roller coaster and embrace a holistic approach to weight loss.

ABOUT THE GUEST, JENNIFER WATTS —

Jennifer is a CPA turned Certified Life and Weight Loss Coach. She had struggled with her weight for most of her life, and unknowingly been living with undiagnosed ADHD all of that time. When her son was diagnosed in 2020, this set her on the path to discovering her own ADHD and learning all of the connections and impact this had on her struggle with weight. These discoveries lead her to finally begin to sustainably lose weight in a way that worked with her neurodiversity rather than against it. She became passionate about wanting to share this with other women like her, and obtained certifications through the Life Coach School and Precision Nutrition. She lives on Vancouver Island in BC, Canada with her husband and three children, and works as a coach helping women with ADHD to also sustainably lose weight, just like her.
