Brain vs Me™
Brain vs Me™ is the podcast for overthinkers, ADHD brains, and anyone who’s ever spiraled over a simple text message. Hosted by author and professional brain battler Joshua Ericson, this show dives into mental health, therapy, ADHD, relationships, burnout, and the chaos of everyday life—all with a dose of humor and self-awareness. If your brain won’t shut up, you’re in the right place. Let’s navigate the mess together.
Brain vs Me™
Marriage, Parenting, and Other Ways to Lose Sleep
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Marriage and parenting are full-time jobs—with no training, no pay, and coworkers who are somehow always sticky.
In this episode, Josh dives into the messy, beautiful, occasionally soul-crushing chaos of family life. From folding-clothes fights in marriage counseling to kids melting down over “spicy bananas,” nothing is off-limits.
You’ll hear:
- How mental health affects marriages (even the strong ones)
- The truth about parenting while neurodivergent
- Why bedtime feels like a hostage negotiation
- The emotional whiplash of loving your family but needing five damn minutes alone
- How to stop comparing your family to a perfectly filtered lie
Whether you’re married, parenting, or just trying not to spiral in front of your kids—this one’s for you.
