12: DOPAMINE ON A BUDGET: 10 ADHD Money Hacks That Actually Work
Do you have ADHD and spend money you don't have? This week on LATE BLOOMERS, Rich and Rox run through ten ways to get the dopamine hit without the overdraft, half from Rox's own life and half from the best of Reddit.There's the shopping casket (fill a £1,000 basket, then never press buy), the two-week graveyard, and the hobby commitment bar Rox invented after one hot Pilates class and a couple of hundred quid of kit she never used again. She's opened her first ever savings account, accidentally saved £100 by being too lazy to find her bank card, and picked a £50 Crocs backpack over a posh handbag to celebrate her album charting. She still hasn't bought the limited edition golf bag, and Rich would like everyone to know what it costs.Ex-bank manager Rich adds his own rule to finish: it doesn't have to be the best one on the market, and second hand is fine.Get our book THE CHERRY TREE THEORYhttp://linktr.ee/cherry.tree.theoryListen to the audiobookhttps://linktr.ee/CHERRY.TREE.AUDIOBOOK20% off Loop Earplugs: https://www.loopearplugs.com/adhdlove

11: I WANT YOUR BRAIN: What ADHD and Autism Envy in Each Other
Usually on LATE BLOOMERS, Rich and Rox talk about what's hard about having an ADHD or autistic brain. This week they flip it: ten things each of them genuinely envies about the other's.Rox would give anything for Rich's ability to follow IKEA instructions, find the car in a Tesco car park and keep a perfect credit score. Rich envies Rox's endless ideas, her 400% excitement over a Crocs bag, and a delusion so strong it becomes reality, which is how they ended up with a body doubling app, bestselling books and a house five minutes from his daughter.It gets real too, as Rox admits that at almost 42 she's never felt like a functioning adult. Funny, sweet, and a reminder that the other brain in the house isn't just the problem. Sometimes it's the answer.Get our book THE CHERRY TREE THEORYhttp://linktr.ee/cherry.tree.theoryListen to the audiobookhttps://linktr.ee/CHERRY.TREE.AUDIOBOOK20% off Loop Earplugs: https://www.loopearplugs.com/adhdlove

10: THE CAREER GRAVEYARD: Every Job We’ve Ever F*cked Up
Are you working a job you love—or staying in one that’s slowly making you miserable? This week, Rich and Rox dig through their entire career histories: first jobs, bad bosses, promotions, burnout, quitting, career pivots, failed dreams and the strange ways neurodivergence shaped what work did and didn’t suit them. Rox talks about going from thriving in fast-paced service jobs to feeling completely out of her depth in a graduate accountancy role, before eventually leaving banking for music; Rich reflects on spending 20 years at Barclays, the managers who shaped him and what finally made him change direction. It’s really about career shame, starting again and the idea that job-hopping, quitting or getting it wrong doesn’t mean you’ve failed—you might just be collecting the pieces that eventually lead you somewhere that fits.

10: THE ENERGY CRISIS: Why Neurodivergent People Are Constantly Tired
Are you tired all the time, even when it feels like you haven’t done much? This week, Rich and Rox unpack ten everyday things that can drain their neurodivergent batteries: masking, disrupted sleep, sensory overload, basic self-care, hyperfocus, social hangovers and the effort of feeling everything so intensely. Rich reflects on the exhaustion of pretending all day at the bank and why losing his routine has made looking after himself harder; Rox explains why everyday tasks rarely feel automatic, her brain switches on the moment she wakes up and an exciting plan can become an exhausting commitment.It’s really about the effort other people don’t see, recognising when you’re running on empty and giving yourself permission to rest. Along the way, there’s a dispute over bedroom boundaries, an unexpectedly deep dive into golf balls and a shared decision that the next activity should probably be a nap.Get our book THE CHERRY TREE THEORY http://linktr.ee/cherry.tree.theoryListen to the audiobook https://linktr.ee/CHERRY.TREE.AUDIOBOOK20% off Loop Earplugs: https://www.loopearplugs.com/adhdlove

RED FLAG OR NEURODIVERGENT: 10 Dating Behaviours We Completely Misread
Your partner turns up late to a date. Red flag, or ADHD? They correct every tiny detail in your stories. Red flag, or autism? This week on LATE BLOOMERS, Rich and Rox play Red Flag or Neurodivergent, working through ten dating behaviours the internet loves to call toxic and asking what's really going on underneath.Most of it comes straight from their own relationship. Rox has forgotten their anniversary more than once (one year she apologised with a song on TikTok) and used to go eight hours without a text during songwriting sessions. Rich shuts down mid-argument, corrects her stories because "I don't need to be right, I just need it to be right", and admits he's disgustingly neutral when she's venting about someone who's upset her. They also get honest about a recent wobble where Rox felt Rich didn't fancy her anymore, and how one awkward conversation fixed it.The takeaway: neurodivergence explains a lot, but it doesn't excuse everything. A partner who listens, talks and adapts is the real green flag.Get our book THE CHERRY TREE THEORYhttp://linktr.ee/cherry.tree.theoryListen to the audiobookhttps://linktr.ee/CHERRY.TREE.AUDIOBOOK20% off Loop Earplugs: https://www.loopearplugs.com/adhdlove

9: THE GREAT ADULTING TEST: Are We Actually Functioning Adults?
This week on LATE BLOOMERS, Rich and Rox sit the Great Adulting Test: 20 questions pulled from Reddit and the internet about what actually makes someone a functional adult, with producer Max keeping score.Rox lost her licence in her 20s for running red lights, thinks "important mail" means her skincare deliveries, and has 350 unread WhatsApp chats. Rich has never paid a bill late in his life but will not do small talk with strangers, full stop. Neither of them knows their bank balance within £100, and nobody can agree who actually booked the dentist.It's ADHD vs autism at its most petty, and one of them wins comfortably. Keep score at home and let us know in the comments.Get our book THE CHERRY TREE THEORYhttp://linktr.ee/cherry.tree.theoryListen to the audiobookhttps://linktr.ee/CHERRY.TREE.AUDIOBOOK20% off Loop Earplugs: https://www.loopearplugs.com/adhdlove

8: YOU ARE NOT YOUR WORST MISTAKE: 10 Beliefs Keeping You Trapped in Shame
Shame doesn’t say you did something bad. It says you are bad—and that belief can quietly ruin your whole life. This week, Rich and Rox confront ten things they’ve struggled to forgive themselves for, including addiction, debt, divorce, executive dysfunction, parenting mistakes and feeling like they’d wasted their lives.Rich shares the darkest consequences of his gambling addiction, while Rox opens up about the shame of being unable to manage basic tasks and believing she couldn’t trust herself. It’s raw, occasionally brutal and somehow still funny—because your worst mistake doesn’t have to become your entire identity.20% off Loop Earplugs: https://www.loopearplugs.com/adhdloveCHAPTERS00:00 The difference between shame and guilt01:38 “I can’t let anybody see how I live”03:03 “What’s that smell?”05:03 “My mistakes are unforgivable”05:50 Rich’s gambling addiction07:30 Why everyone needs a redemption story08:13 “I’ve wasted my life”11:02 “I’ve failed in relationships”14:03 “I’m a terrible friend”16:06 Loop Earplugs17:08 “Why don’t I want to be touched?”18:40 “I can’t trust myself”21:27 Being an emotionally unavailable father23:23 “I’m scared I’m a bad parent”26:13 Shame about autistic sensitivities27:41 Final thoughts

8: UNMASKING AT HOME: 10 Signs You’re Still Performing for the People You Love
You might take the mask off after work—but are you actually taking it off at home? This week, Rich and Rox expose ten ways ADHD and autistic people can still perform around the people they trust most, from saying “I’m fine” and agreeing to plans you secretly dread to hiding sensory overwhelm, exhaustion and chaos.They talk fake facial expressions, panic-cleaning, apologising for moods that have nothing to do with you and why “I’ll do it later” often means something completely different. It turns out feeling safe enough to be honest can involve more awkward conversations—and fewer forced cuddles.20% off Loop Earplugs: https://www.loopearplugs.com/adhdlove
