The Connection Between ADHD, Alcohol, and Burnout No One Is Talking About with Jen Lander, PHMNP-BC
Episode 95
Monday, 27 July, 2026
In this episode, I sit down with Jen Lander, PMHNP-BC, board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner and founder of Landing Well Psychiatry, to explore why ADHD is so often overlooked in women and how it can quietly impact everything from emotional regulation and burnout to alcohol use, entrepreneurship, and everyday life. As someone who both specializes in ADHD and lives with it herself, Jen combines evidence-based psychiatry with personal experience to help women better understand how their brains work, reduce shame, and build lives that align with their values. If you've ever wondered why your mind never seems to slow down, why rest feels uncomfortable, or why you've been told it's "just anxiety," this conversation may help connect a lot of dots. We cover: Why ADHD often looks different in women than it does in men Why so many women aren't diagnosed until adulthood The signs of ADHD that are commonly mistaken for anxiety What "high-functioning" ADHD can actually look like Why so many women feel guilty slowing down or resting How chronic stress and burnout affect the ADHD brain The connection between ADHD, alcohol, and emotional regulation What alcohol is actually doing in the brain and why it can feel like it "takes the edge off" The signs alcohol may have become more than just a social activity Jen's personal journey with ADHD, alcohol, and becoming alcohol-free How ADHD can show up differently for entrepreneurs and high-achieving women ADHD traits that can actually become strengths Practical systems that have helped Jen personally and professionally Lifestyle habits that support mental health and nervous system regulation What to do if you think you may have ADHD …and more.
