The Brain Chronicle | June 2025 Edition

Added 2025-06-30 20:56:51 +0000 UTC

Hello Brains & Hearts!

Thanks to your support, my team and I are hard at work refreshing some things… like the studio set…and me! After nearly a decade (!) of creating content, we figured it was time to level up and build a set that reflects my experience and expertise. I even got a color analysis done for the first time and learned I’m a True Spring!! It was such a cool experience and now I know what colours (and lighting) I look best in. Click here to checkout where I got it done (if you’re interested!)

As for the set itself, we’re still compiling ideas of possible looks, lighting, and vibes to work off of as inspiration! I’m super excited to see what we come up with - but what about you? What kind of things do you find too distracting in the background of a YouTube video? What are some things you love? Let us know in the comments or via DM on Patreon! Feel free to send pics!

Oh and we have updates on some perks! Take it away, Harley!

Everybody

We’ve changed what system we use to send these newsletters via email… and forgot to actually migrate the Brain Chronicle over to that new system. So! This month you’ll get the email version via this Patreon post rather than via a separate email system. Hopefully by next month we’ll have the new system setup for this!

Before I review this month’s poll, I wanted to let you all know that next month we’ll be trying something different! We’ve released a couple of public newsletters, and these newsletters often have a couple tips or strategies.

So next month we’ll compile these tips and strategies and have you vote on which tip or strategy you’d like for us to expand on in the next Patreon newsletter!

Expand on in what way? A good question! This is a new thing we’re trying so we don’t have things locked in quite yet but if you have some ideas drop them in the comments or via DM here on Patreon!

As for June’s poll, you voted, and it was a very close race this month! In the end, 5 Must-Have Tools to Help You "See" Time won the poll! You’ll start seeing cutdowns on Instagram, YouTube Shorts, and Facebook for this video in the next couple of weeks. 😄

So. Imagine being our poor Producer… trying to have a nice vacation… then coming back from vacation to immediately go into shooting the Clutterbug episode… then going directly into another creative episode shoot… and all that entails. Ha. Haha. Nervous sweat

This means we’re behind schedule on getting Behind The Scenes organized out, but we hope to catch up on both May and June’s behind the scenes in the coming weeks!

In the mean time, if you find yourself in our YouTube comments, throw Kai some love!

Brain Board

As you may have noticed, Brain Board did not happen this past Saturday due to a scheduling conflict. So be sure to update your calendars, because Brain Board was rescheduled for THIS coming weekend!

ImpactParents’ Back On Track Summit | July 17, 2025

This is a FREE one-day virtual summit that hopes to help you better support and empower the young adults in your life, be they your children, your patients, or your students. There will be insights being shared, along with tools and other strategies!

I’ll also be at the event and will be talking about how my Mom did everything for me… and why that was a problem!

You can purchase an upgraded ticket if you’d like lifetime access to session recordings! (Any upgraded tickets purchased using our link will support what my team and I do here at How to ADHD.) But as always, please check your budget first!

After SEVEN YEARS (yes, you read that number correctly!) of requests to collab with Clutterbug… I did it! I collaborated with Clutterbug and she taught me a lot about decluttering… and what types of organization work better for MY brain AND my partner’s brain!
I did a color analysis for the FIRST TIME EVER!!! I learned what colors look best on me and what lighting works better for me, as well. We’ll be using this information for a refresh of my look (which will still very much be me… just… in more flattering colors!) and my set’s look!
We had a successful video shoot in the woods! We’re trying to get playful and creative in new ways… and the video is turning out great, I can’t wait for you to see it!
Steph has been AMAZING at getting our new public newsletter out on time! Thank you so much Steph!!! Would you like more details on what is involved in the making of the public newsletter? If so, let me know in the comments!
Meanwhile, Harley continues to manage the release of Shorts content and hasn’t missed in a week this month! (“Thank god for the ability to schedule things ahead of time 🙏” - Harley)
We’re making progress on figuring out the company’s budget! “But Jessica… did you not have one of those?” Hahaha. No. Well, yes. Well, sort of. Props, making sure my team is paid fair and taken care of, making sure I’m paid fair and taken care of, not to mention all the bills of just being a company means there is a lot to consider financially… but thanks to that team, we’re inching closer and closer to having a budget system that hopefully will work for us! 🤞
