Halting the Cycle of Self Doubt Perfectionism and Procrastination

  • January 20, 2026
  • 12:00 PM
  • ADDitude Webinar

It begins in childhood and gains momentum through adulthood: the constant negativity and criticism from educators, parents, coaches, partners, colleagues, and others who fail to truly understand ADHD. Over time, that negativity turns into self-doubt, procrastination, and perfectionism — manifestations of a lifetime worth of feeling you’re not measuring up.

When we understand the impact of low self-esteem, and how it fuels procrastination, people-pleasing, and perfectionism, we can begin to counteract these behaviors with liberating solutions for a stronger, healthier self-image.

Join ADHD Productivity Coach Alan P. Brown, creator of the award-winning ADD Crusher™ ‘virtual coach’ video and audio program, for a candid presentation on how to overcome self-defeating behaviors.

In this webinar, you will:

  • Understand the many reasons for why people with ADHD have low self-esteem, from our DNA to our childhood experiences to events in our adult life
  • Learn why adults with ADHD are more likely than their neurotypical peers to struggle with the serious consequences of a poor self-image, including perfectionism, people-pleasing, and productivity
  • Learn simple ways to begin chipping away at negative self-beliefs and strengthen self-image and confidence
  • Learn how to let go of perfectionism, people-pleasing, and procrastination to get things done
