How Your Personality Influences Your ADHD Experience
Could ADHD struggles be shaped by something deeper — something personal? This is a question I've asked myself every time I did a personality quiz because interestingly enough, there were a number of similarities pointing directly to ADHD traits.
In this episode, I dig into the science behind why ADHD symptoms might actually reflect who you are — your personality — not just the label we slap on. We’ll unpack the famed “Big Five” personality traits, explore how they overlap with ADHD, and give you concrete tests you can take (and what to do with the results). If you’ve ever felt like ADHD is only part of your story, this one’s for you. Expect science + self‑awareness + a little Gen X sass.
What you’ll learn:
-
The Big Five personality traits (Openness, Conscientiousness, Extraversion, Agreeableness, Neuroticism) — what they are, how they show up.
-
How these traits map onto ADHD symptoms and executive‑function challenges.
-
That ADHD isn’t the only explanation for why you act, feel, think the way you do. Your personality plays a huge role.
-
Practical tests you can take (Big Five, 16 Personalities, Sacred Money Archetypes) to get clearer on you.
-
Why knowing your personality and ADHD profile helps you build strategies that amplify your strengths (instead of just “fixing your deficits”).
