If you're an ADHDer (especially INTJ) looking to leverage your strengths in your career you won't want to miss this episode!

Focusing on the INTJ type (the Architect/Strategist), we explore:

- Key INTJ strengths like strategic thinking, innovation, and deep focus — amplified by ADHD hyperfocus when channeled right

- Common challenges (e.g., executive function hurdles, perfectionism, emotional intensity) and how they show up with ADHD

- Research-backed benefits of strengths-based psychology: higher workplace satisfaction, better performance, and improved well-being

- Practical ways for INTJ ADHDers to advocate in the workplace (accommodations, boundary-setting, leveraging strengths)

- Self-support strategies: building more grace, recognizing your 10x effort as a high achiever, and turning "weaknesses" into assets

Whether you're a manager building neurodiverse teams, an INTJ with ADHD seeking deeper self-understanding, or anyone interested in positive psychology for ADHD brains — this episode offers actionable insights to thrive, not just survive.

When James Van Der Beek spoke about his experience with cancer, he didn’t talk about achievement.He didn’t talk about legacy.He talked about self love & how we are all inherently worthy of it.About how so much of our identity is built on earning it. Performing for it. Achieving for it. Becoming “something” in order to deserve it.And how illness stripped that away.In this episode, I break down:• James final videos & interviews• How conditioning teaches us our worth is transactional• The Sun in Gate 49 at the time of his passing — and the message of revolution from the I ChingGate 49 is about higher principles. About revolt. About rejecting what is no longer aligned.What if the real revolution… is realizing you were always worthy?What if the real revolution… is realizing that your purpose was always simply to be you?If you’ve ever felt like you had to become more in order to be loved — this conversation is for you.Find out your bodygraph on my website here: https://www.ashleybrianaeve.com/Learn more about Gene Keys here: https://genekeys.com/ref/1717/And if you enjoy more long form written work I invite you to join me on Substack here: https://substack.com/@ashleybrianaeve#jamesvanderbeek #genekeys #humandesign #findyourpurpose #adhdselfimprovement

Over the years, I’ve noticed a pattern among high-performing entrepreneurs and brand builders.

It isn’t a lack of discipline.

It isn’t a lack of ambition.

And it certainly isn’t a lack of intelligence or talent.

It’s a misunderstanding of where motivation is actually coming from.

Most people assume that burnout happens when you take on too much. In reality, it happens when you repeatedly say yes to goals your nervous system, and soul, was never designed to sustain.
