Calling all moms!! 🤙🤙I know so many moms who stress about missed opportunities to be there for their kids because they have to go to work, or are stressing about money because working and childcare just don't make sense. Here's the truth➡️ I started an in home day care so I could be home with my kids. But the reality is most of the time I still have to miss out on school field trips, picking up my kids from school is challenging because I have to be home for my job, and to care for my other littles. My own children are often put on the back burner, because I have to tend to the other littles. As much as I love them ALL, it breaks my heart when my kids feel they aren't the most important to me, regardless of how much I say it to them. Also, after the daycare kiddos go home, I was completely drained and didn't have any energy left for my own kids. Also, money is tight. I needed another steam of income to provide security around inflation, changes in my daycare business income and to lighten the load. Digital Marketing is the answer to my prayers. 🙏🙏 3 reasons why⬇️ 1. I can make my own schedule and work on it when I am able. 2. It costs very little to get started. The most expensive part was purchasing the Roadmap course (available in my Stan Store) and let's be real it's much cheaper then ONE course in college that I only retained 10% of. The Roadmap provides lifetime access, so if I forget I can go back to it later 🔥🔥🔥 3. I can be myself. My whole business is a reflection of me and my own problems I have solved, so it feels easy and intentional, and gives me a new sense of purpose I haven't felt since before I had babies. Where my mompreneurs at???? Like and follow me along on my journey!!! We are in this together ❤️
🦸🤱Hey Super Mom! 😍 I read a book about mommy burnout recovery today, and ate an entire container of strawberries with Nutella. Yum! Oh and showered. 🙃 What are you doing to fill your cup?? We are in this together ❤️

I find myself caught in an endless cycle throughout the year, constantly making lists of tasks that need to be completed, often using the notes app on my iPhone. Despite my efforts, these tasks never seem to get done. Time slips away, and I become tired and easily distracted, which only adds to my stress. Even when I try to relax, I can't help but feel guilty for not utilizing that time to accomplish the things on my list. I wonder if this is just a passing phase or if it might be a sign of ADHD. Perhaps my expectations for myself are too high, or maybe I lack efficiency and planning skills, struggling to make the best use of my time. Does anyone else experience this, and if so, how do you manage it? Credit: momsbehavingbadly #momblogger #momof3 #doctormom #professionalmom #momoftoddlers #momselfcare #momadhd #momlife

Dziś do mnie przyszło. Mimo listy rzeczy zrobionych, by czuć się dobrze, poczułam, że mi źle. Jestem w procesie diagnozy i wspierania córki, która podobna jest do mnie nie tylko fizycznie i niestety, nie wyssała z mlekiem tylko tego co pozytywne. Oswajam fakty. I dziś dotarło do mnie, że może właśnie dlatego, że tak ciężko kochać i wspierać samego siebie, dać sobie bezwarunkową miłość, dostajesz od losu Małe Lustro, do którego przecież czucie miłości jest oczywiste, z całym dobrodziejstwem i (jak dobrze znanym) przekleństwem inwentarza. Świadomość, że wiem, co w niej siedzi i wiem, jak jej będzie trudno, tym bardziej jeśli siebie nie zaakceptuje, dziś mnie jakoś poraziła. Bo nie wiem, czy z ciągłymi wyrzutami do siebie "że za dużo myślę" i "nie umiem czegoś" jestem dobrym przykładem. I nie mam mocy sprawczej rozwiązywania jej problemów. Nie wiem czy mając przykład tej autotroski, łatwiej byłoby jej tulić siebie. No ale nie ma innej drogi - żeby przynajmniej widziała, że to istnieje, a nie jest utopią. Nie ma innej drogi i większej motywacji, niż troska o ukochaną osobę - siebie i dziecko. Także dziś utulam. Przyszły brzydkie emocje, chciałam je negować, deprecjonować, zagłuszać, bo tak mnie wkurza, kiedy zakrywają mądrość. Jakby to coś dało kiedykolwiek. Jakbym nie wiedziała, że wszystkie emocje są ważne. Smutek musi się wysmucić, złość wyzłościć... Dziś zmartwienia macierzyńskie wymartwić. Zostać utulone, wysłuchane. Żeby mogły sobie póĵść i zrobić miejsce tym, które wesprą, nie zatrzymają. Żeby przypomiały, że zatrzymywanie i zwątpienie jest ok. Podsumowanie? Zrządzenie albo mądrość losu, że ciężko ze sobą samym wytrzymać, odpieprzyć się od siebie, a za swoje małe lustro oddałoby się życie, mimo wszystko i ponad wszystko i wtedy ta miłość jest oczywista. Idę smucić i dumać. Żeby jutro może uznać, że to tak tylko na chwilkę było, nim wrócę rozjebywać to życie po swojemu. Co sądzisz? Ty też się dziwisz jakie dziecko do Ciebie poodobne i Cię to czasem przeraża? Głowa tak często u mnie cięższa niż dupa. 🙄 #adhd #adhdlife #adhdproblem #adhdlife #womenadhd #momadhd #mok #morherhood #macierzynstwo #refleksja
I'm learning new things about our ADHD daily to help our family thrive with our new diagnoses. I didn't know that there are 8 specific categories of executive functioning! Did you? We ADHD peeps struggle with pretty much all of these, but some definitely more than others. Personally, I have a hard time with Planning & Prioritizing Tasks and Task Initiation (I tend to do the fun things first, even when big important things are on my list). I also, have a really hard time regulating my emotions (I am working so hard on this one!). Actually, all of these are pretty tricky for me! I'm grateful to be able to take some time now to learn more about my ADHD and work on building executive functioning skills. What areas do you find difficult? What areas do you find easy? Thank you @addvantageslearning for this amazing graphic! #adhd #adhdawareness #ihaveadhd #femaleadhd #momadhd #adhdfamily

Antes de eu ter o diagnóstico, não tinha falado nada pra ela, quando começamos a fazer as avaliações (que são muitas, mas muitas perguntas) ela começou a perguntar, pq ela estava indo tanto ao consultório do médico se não estava doente?? E daí para frente começaram os questionamentos, então sentei com ela e explique, que estávamos indo ao médico para fazer avaliação e que supostamente ela poderia ser TDAH, aí ela perguntou o que era isso, então expliquei pelo comportamento dela, mas que ela não precisava ficar preocupada pq tem tratamento.... Ela "entendeu" não perguntou mais sobre isso e seguimos.❤️ . . . @tdahdescomplicado . . . . Before I got the diagnosis, I hadn't said anything to her, when we started doing the evaluations (which are many, many questions) she started asking, why was she going to the doctor's office so much if she wasn't sick?? And from then on, the questions started, so I sat down with her and explained that we were going to the doctor for an evaluation and that she supposedly could be ADHD, then she asked what it was, so I explained her behavior, but that she didn't need to be worried because there is treatment.... She "got it" didn't ask more about it and we followed.❤️ . . . #tdahinfantil #tdah #tdahdescomplicado #adhd #adhdparenting #childadhd #momadhd
Show me that you’re #ADHD without telling me you’re ADHD… . . . . Got it in one take! Bc if I ever tried to do a second, it would either take 4 hrs due to the #hyperfocus ability of my all or nothing #neurodiverse brain (and my children -and I- would never eat today) or, I would never actually finish it bc #adultadhd #momadhd #adhdawareness #adhdawarenessmonth #thisshitisreal
*Eats a piece of gum in front of my 3yo while I’m late to get his bro, late to make dinner (this meal just keeps happening every day and no one stops it?!) & I forgot to eat lunch* Him: “What did you just put in your mouth?” Me: (Dont say candy, don’t say candy) “Uhhhhhhh -Candy.” Aaaand cut to a rousing 10 min chorus of “I want candy toooooo.” Swipe for actual pic of me and my unfiltered mouth. #momlife #adhd #momadhd #adhdwomen #adhdparenting #adhdbrain
Women with untreated ADHD can find themselves struggling with parenting. "Some moms may be a little more stressed when trying to deal with the structure that may come along with mothering, depending on the age of the kids. Girls are less likely than boys to be diagnosed with ADHD, and their symptoms don’t go away in adulthood. The result? Many women unknowingly live with a condition that affects every aspect of their life, including parenthood. Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a common childhood disorder, but boys are more than twice as likely to be diagnosed than girls. And that's not because boys are more susceptible. Instead, their symptoms tend to be hyperactive-impulsive, making them more noticeable. On the other hand, girls may present with inattentiveness and cause no notable disturbances in their surroundings, leaving their condition overlooked. Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a common childhood disorder, but boys are more than twice as likely to be diagnosed than girls. And that's not because boys are more susceptible. Instead, their symptoms tend to be hyperactive-impulsive, making them more noticeable. On the other hand, girls may present with inattentiveness and cause no notable disturbances in their surroundings, leaving their condition overlooked. It's not uncommon for mothers to learn they've been living with ADHD after their child begins to have concentration issues and are then diagnosed with the condition by a professional. "Once the parent addresses the diagnosis with their child, the mother often then realizes that they have been living with the same symptoms their whole lives, too," says Dr. Jimenez, whose research also found ADHD runs in families. But it's important to get treatment as early as possible. If a woman is struggling with focusing, restlessness, disorganization, or other similar issues, they should consult a professional to seek a diagnosis and discuss care options. Treating the root issue is critical. Information and references from: Parents.com
How many times I’m afraid to think big, or I don’t believe in them, but I guess the problem that stops me and the majority of the people that I work with is the fear to start, the aversion to comparing with others who are already at the level where we want to create. Or the fear of I is not good enough. And the answer is still even with fear. DO IT! Start small but start today!!! Act fast, and you will scale 💪.

Parents of adhd kids use adhd as an excuse for their behaviour agree or disagree? 🙅♀️I can’t believe that in the year 2021 educators are still making these types of comments. 🙅♀️I can’t believe in the year 2021 adhd is still seen as a behavioural issue and not a brain developmental issue. 🙅♀️I can’t believe in 2021 parents of adhd children still need to be defending their children. But this is the reality that many of us are living in: 🙇♀️Kids with adhd are labelled as the child that can’t focus ( as if they choose this), defiant, uncooperative, don’t try hard enough, don’t care enough, if only they would… 🙇♀️Parents of children with adhd are seen as making excuses, hiding behind their child diagnosis, failing as parents. 🧚♂️🧚♂️So what are we to do, the moms in the trenches, the moms who are doing everything they can to help there child, the mom that is exhausted from this battle. 1. ✨Speak up.. the only way we are going to change things is to use our voice and teach our children to use their voice. 2. ✨Educate the people who work with your child ( teachers, coaches, and yes family members). Help them to understand what adhd is and how they can help your child. Is this an easy task, no? Will you get push back? Yes. But their ain’t no force stronger than a momma on a mission and don’t you ever forget that!! 3. ✨Connect with other parents that are fighting your battle. We rise up when we stand together. We can make a difference. We can change things. And while it will take time it is possible. There are national organizations you can join, Facebook groups ( I have one of you are interested), conferences. Momma we can!! Who is standing with me today to change things? Drop a ❤️below and let’s start changing the conversations around adhd!! #adhdisreal #adhdmoms #adhdparentingtips #adhdstrategies #adhdchild #adhdcoaching #executivefunctioningskills #iep #dyslexia #learningdisabilityawareness #momadhd #faithoverfear #momcommunity #momssupportingmoms #womensupportingwomen #sportsmom #swimmom #homescholling

Chill on those goals. . . Sure, set them, love them, reach for them, but don’t loose your mind trying to accomplish standards that are NOT HELPFUL.
⚠️ Information overload!!! . . GOOGLE is great until it’s not. Happy to help you find your ADHD way. . . Book a consult! Let’s get you going!
Validation. It is something that as humans we all crave. Just like Karla, I too feel so validated hearing all of your stories as we meet. ADHD can feel complex. . . I’m not saying that validation it’s the highest or noblest of feelings to receive, but it sure helps to know that other great and inspiring people get you and that you’re actually not “just crazy.” . . It feels good to know you are seen and acknowledged. I am learning that while we can move to higher ground even when people we love do not validate us, it is also okay to be around others that do and still inspire us to reach higher than where we’ve ever been. . . Community and support is oh so important as we are looking to make big shifts in our life. So thankful for Kayla sharing her feelings. So blessed to have met with her. Cheering you on girl!! @karlanatalie
“I totally understand that it may be hard to take rest days, but I think it's not healthy to be so attached to anything that we absolutely lose our minds when we can't do that thing.” -Urban Jane . . My ADHD brain wants to keep working, keep production , make all of the decisions, GO go Go GO Go go GO! . . Just like athletes need a break for their body to recover- it is an excellent idea to take a day to help our brains recover and rest. . . I avoid grocery shopping, I don’t engage as much on social media, I don’t work by business, I spend time with family and friend and connect, I choose to put stressful thoughts, issues or situations on the shelf, I spend time in prayer, worship, meditation and rest. . . This practice has balanced my life well for years. Come the work week I am that much more prepared to take on life.
I hadn’t thought of impatience ever being courageous! . . Yesterday I learned that the root of courage is actually core. That when we stick to who we truest are at our center belief system we show courage. . . Impatient courage to me is not waiting a second longer to live your most authentic life. . . I am here to support you getting after those dreams. My ADHD consultations will give you an individualized roadmap and plan to help you achieve it all. . . Prices are increasing soon-can’t wait to talk!
I just don’t know what the answer is. . . I usually am in bed before 10pm. But the three hours after that for some reason can become my ULTRA hyper focus time of night/day. . . I am laying flooring in my kids bedroom and I know I feel pretty lousy if I stay up two nights in a row but I also have to meet a deadline. There are also some things I’d just rather not draw out. . . Sometimes I’m learning there is a trade off. That even being intentional with our daily routines doesn’t always fit what we’ve got to get done. . . Sometimes being intentional is breaking a rule from time to time.
You make the choice, you choose your life. You choose the direction, reaction and value. You do.
If I start a conversation after 9:00pm I know I’m going to have a “wind down” problem. . . If I can get in bed before 10pm and no phone conversation after 9:30pm I’m able to wake up at 4:30am- and I fall right asleep. . . But if I have meetings or projects that put me past 10:00pm there is no going back I hit my midnight wind and I’m going four more hours. . . This is then followed by days of exhaustion and mental fatigue. I still have to wake up early and naps do not suffice. Deep restorative sleep is essential. . . Helping others understand and respect that boundary has been really difficult for me, even helping myself respect that is a struggle. Maybe if I put it here I’ll have more accountability.
I love to learn about my ADHD. I have signs, quotes, questions, vision boards, goals, and checklists all around my house (maybe to a fault) because I know if it is not in my view, I WILL FORGET, or will completely STRESS MYSELF OUT trying to “not forget”. . . How might you help improve this area of YOUR life?
Yesterday I had a moment where I would usually unravel, blow up, say things all too directly in frustration and anger and intolerance. . . But I didn’t. You know why I didn’t...because I have been working on myself!! I have been learning more about my ADHD and how it manifests in my life. I have been using tools to change and adapt my thoughts and it works! . . I recognized myself falling into the old traps and so I didn’t go there. I instead said hello to my feelings and thoughts, wrote them down, worked them out then changed the thought and landed in a much better result. . . I went outside and played a game with my kids, I allowed my mind to process and cool. I meditated and prayed. I repeated my newly formed thought pattern and really allowed it to sink deep. . . I am not perfect, but I am becoming more and more in control. I am learning how to not respond reactively but rather proactively AFTER the adrenaline cools and is not pumping through my veins. . . You, like me, may be considering making the investment in yourself and hiring an ADHD coach. If so, I’d say 1000% go for it!! Game changer! . . I have a variety of amazing individuals that I’d love to recommend from my directory! So proud of you! So proud of me!

21 days ago I started my second program which included a nutrition plan. 30 minutes a day each day was all it took for these results💪🏻.

The sun finally came out after three days of rain! But there is something so very fresh and nice about a good rainfall! . . Especially in the Spring. The mountains and grass scream neon colors and the air is crisp and clean. . . I find that starting my day out in nature and the elements, brightens my mind and put me in positivity! . . Are you the same?
Addict to the feeling of new and exciting because of this. Yet another reason why I embrace my hyperfocus because if I don’t hurry and get it done before I become bored, it will be that much harder to start back into it again. . . But with this I also am learning that even if we don’t want to do something there are ways and motivations to get me started regardless.
I had the kindest parents. . . This photo was taken in 2nd grade, I was the same age as my oldest is now. . . It is getting strange as a parent because I now have memories from the ages of my daughters ages and thinking about how my they will now really begin to remember their life in an similar way is a new phenomenon. . . I feel like I would have been discouraged to know I had ADHD. But if my parents would have known I would have not wanted to keep it from me either. It is an interesting thought stream. . . “You have ADHD, how cool is that!” Then we would work on it together. . . I’m not doing my best as a mom to kiddos with ADHD, but I’m working on it. I think today is good reminder that as parents we do have quite the privilege to shape their future.
BIG THINGS ARE HAPPENING! I’m starting an eight week challenge course on Monday to help me build toward starting up my podcast again. . . I feel like I have had my hands in so many buckets and tasks lately that the progress toward the bigger goal has been slow moving. . . It reminds me of a huge, heavy, steam engine train as those wheels slowly start to churn. The strain, stress and sheer force it takes to get it going is intense but once things are rolling watch out! . . So thankful for this journey! Thankful for all of you!
My life in this house is a dance. When I plan I succeed otherwise I am constantly moving and getting little done. Little bit now and little bit later, but never complete. . . My chores looks like this when I am prepared, but the difference is I do it with intent to complete.
Does hyperfocus send you working with your adrenaline for an extended period of time only to leave you accomplished but extremely EXHAUSTED?! . . Take some guilt free time to rest. I set aside one day a week to rest. To put all of my projects aside and allow renewal and peace. (As much as I can with three littles) . . I look forward to this time and so does my body and mind. We must pause.
It never get old. . . Every consultation I hop on I am humbled by your stories, your desires and dreams to take charge. . . I believe in you. That brain of yours is beautiful, it is phenomenal, it is creative and complex. . . The Grand Canyon was carved from the Colorado River. HARNESSED energy, FOCUSED in a specific direction and yet UNTAMED as it flows FREELY and POWERFULLY. . . Learning how to direct your busy mind is a skill, there are a variety of ways to learn how to do it. But most important is the understanding that it CAN be done. . . One day at a time, one resource at a time, one step at a time you will carve your own majesty. My joy is to do all I can to help you locate the tools to help you on your way. . . Never. Loose. Heart.
We wouldn’t ever expect a tree house to be built without tools no matter how much someone knew what a tree house looked like. . . Yet so often we expect ourselves to just look at our “lumber, and nails” and simply “get the job done.” . . While we may know what the end product should look like it doesn’t mean that we know how or have the strategies and tools to actually accomplish the task at hand. . . Enter The ADHDirectory. This is exactly why I have assembled such a powerful team of ADHD coaches and professionals to support you all! . . My own coaching tools are not sufficient to help you build your dream tree house...BUT they are very aware of all of the local hardware stores and speciality stores that will help assist you to creating the product of your dreams! . . It is so rewarding and humbling getting on the phone with you, getting to know you and empowering you to take action! Let’s put you on your way! . . I believe in you all so very much! You can and you will!
“How could you be so insensitive and rude?! That is pretty low Kamden. I cannot believe you would go to such means to humiliate me like this!!” . . A hat, some cash, a watch. Pretty common and nice gifts to give. Especially if you’ve been taking note that they don’t have any of these things, or have mentioned that they’ve been meaning to get them! . . NOPE well NOT IN CHINA!! . . This morning I asked one of my Chinese students to confirm that these were not good gifts to give...lol...I wish you could have seen her face!! . . Any money gifts that have the number 4 in them are considered unlucky bc the word for 4 also means DEATH. A green hat represents infidelity and a watch as a gift very taboo as it means, “attending a funeral.” . . My point is sometimes what seems very thoughtful to one may be very insensitive to another, let’s give grace as we are teaching and sharing our journey with ADHD. Some people may mean really well but are misinformed, be gracious and accepting while still also advocating for the gang. Stay kind.
Today I HIRED my first ADHD one-on-one coach. . . It has been 18 months of financial struggle free one on one coaching here and there, tuning into life coaching on podcasts and educating myself. Being my best advocate and MAN have I learned A LOT! . . My coach (it feels so good to say that) offered me her services so I could recommend her with a better understanding of her style and strengths. . . I was MOVED after both sessions that I could not hold myself back from saying, “YOU’RE HIRED!” I felt so empowered and my brain so organized. My heart bursting with gratitude with clear steps to help me take charge of my ADHD and life. We identified breakthroughs and triggers, we set up steps toward success and what I have accomplished since last week!! GUYS!!! So much good! . . If you have not considered getting a coach I STRONGLY recommend it! The financial investment in your future is worth every penny! Let’s get in a consultation (see my bio linktree) and find you the perfect fit for your needs! . . Man I am so pumped right now! CAN’t wait for you to feel this kind of relief and joy! We CAN DO IT!!
We can often see where we are headed but feel like we come up against too many barriers, fences and hurdles. . . It’s easy with ADHD to feel overwhelmed, to have anxiety and to think of all of the work that is going to be needed to accomplish something as though we need to do it all in that very moment. . . This is when we can have a breakthrough. The breakthrough doesn’t mean that we have the success right away. The breakthrough happens in our mind when we find a strategy that can help us chew off one bite at a time and allow ourselves the liberty of not having all the answers right now. . . We are not looking just for the easy solution, the obvious answer, what makes us special and unique is the ability to look outside of the norm and bring something exceptional to the table. . . . Learning how to be patient with ourselves, and to celebrate and honor that process is a breakthrough, and will lead to ultimate success. . . Keep on going! It will soon be clear, push to the breakthrough!
I’ve been connecting with so many of you over the past 2 weeks! You have been so complementary, kind and real. I am so thankful for your vulnerability and proud of your first steps toward changing your life with ADHD. . . Sometimes the unknown is too big, sometimes we need someone to walk beside us through the process and show us just what’s out there and how to navigate it. . . Don’t give up if your first attempts weren’t what you expected. Your whole life many of you have met let down after let down, but that does not have to be your forever. . . Keep your sights set high, show up for yourself in big ways and let’s walk this road together!
A.D.H.D Take my hand and come with me, I want to teach you about ADHD. I need you to know, I want to explain, I have a very different brain. Sights, sounds, and thoughts collide. What to do first? I can't decide. Please understand I'm not to blame, I just can't process things the same. Take my hand and walk with me, Let me show you about ADHD. I try to behave, I want to be good, But I sometimes forget to do as I should. Walk with me and wear my shoes, You'll see its not the way I'd choose. I do know what I'm supposed to do, But my brain is slow getting the message through. Take my hand and talk with me, I want to tell you about ADHD. I rarely think before I talk, I often run when I should walk. It's hard to get my school work done, My thoughts are outside having fun. I never know just where to start, I think with my feelings and see with my heart. Take my hand and stand by me, I need you to know about ADHD. It's hard to explain but thought you to know, I can't help letting my feelings show. Sometimes I'm angry, jealous, or sad. I feel overwhelmed, frustrated, and mad. I can't concentrate and I lose all my stuff. I try really hard but it's never enough. Take my hand and learn with me, We need to know more about ADHD. I worry a lot about getting things wrong, Everything I do takes twice as long. Everyday is exhausting for me... Looking through the fog of ADHD. I'm often so misunderstood, I would change in a heartbeat if I could. Take my hand and listen to me, I want to share a secret about ADHD. I want you to know there is more to me. I'm not defined by it, you see. I'm sensitive, kind and lots of fun. I'm blamed for things I haven't done. I'm the loyalist friend you'll ever know, I just need a chance to let it show. Take my hand and look at me, Just forget about the ADHD. I have real feelings just like you. The love in my heart is just as true. I may have a brain that can never rest, But please understand I'm trying my best. I want you to know, I need you to see, I'm more than the label, I am still me!!!! ~Author Unknown #adhd #attentiondeficithyperactivitydisorder #partofme #mom #momlife #momadhd
I cried the first time I saw Frozen 2. . . When I feel empowered, heard and moved ...I cry. I grit my teeth and I cry. My first clench and I cry with determination, with empowerment. . . “There’s a thousand reasons I should go about my day, and ignore your whispers which I wish would go away...” . . “What do you want? ‘Cause you’re keeping me awake...Don’t you know there’s a part of me that longs to go Into the unknown?” . . You have been thinking about changing something for a while, about making that leap but you’ve been too conservative, too under the radar, dwelt too much on past failures or allegiances. It’s all just too foreign. . . Happy Monday friend. This post is for you-either you listen to that voice today or you live with the nagging “what ifs” for infinite tomorrows. . . But I say it is time to move into the unknown.
Anyone else? . . Just talk. If you have something nice to share. Just share. If you need to thoughtfully want to mend relationships, do it. . . Don’t hold back your love for fear of how it will be received. Take courage and live with the real facts. Not the ones you’re imagining up. . . We all are in need of more care, kindness and light.
See, we sometimes think that what we do is our business and what we choose to get help or not get help with is OUR choice and impacts OUR life so people should kind THEIR own business. . . Too bad it isn’t always that simple. I have these mini humans running around, and while I’m on phone calls and working around the clock to build my dreams they need their mom. I am their ONLY mom. . . I think about how much I lean upon my own upbringing to shape my choices and I would really love to give these little people some great mental examples and images to go off of that are kind and good. . . Netflix had a strange movie I watched too late one night, can remember the title, but the mom was an artist and was clearly in hyperfocus mode all of the time b/c she left her little girls to do so much of their own cooking, hearing their house by chopping wood themselves. . . This scene left a strange feeling in me, but it is crazy just how independent my own kids have become since I have stated working more often from home. Dealing with hyperfocus and being interrupted 18 times an hour is difficult and frustrating-especially with time sensitive projects and deadlines. . . I am learning how to manage myself and my ADHD better so I can PERSONALLY yes feel better but also so I can be the mom for them that looks them in the eyes, makes memories and is present. It is a hard thing to do. But where there is a will there is a way.
Me to my thoughts: . . “You spin me right around baby right around like a record baby right around round round.” . . My thoughts: “Let’s get this started (Ha!) Let’s get this started in here!...runnin’ runnin’ and runnin’ runnin’.”
Okay I look a little scary in this photo, but that sky and those mountains! . . Spring break looked a little different this past week compared to past years but we enjoyed it! . . I have a few take aways... . . 1. The more you have to share the same space the better you get to know each other. . . 2. Just because it’s different doesn’t mean it has to be worse. . . 3. Not interacting in person makes the heart grow fonder for the freedoms and liberties we took for granted. . . 4. A TRUE staycation helps me get to know the blessing and safety of my own home. . . 5. I am learning to embrace an introverted life and it is really nice to have multiple days without interruptions, and helps me with productivity. . . (I’ve also momentarily broken down twice.) Today I’m dwelling on the positive-What are your take aways?
I love my kids... but not gonna lie... the first week back to school was awesome! A W E S O M E But I totally have mom pingball brain. It should be a real diagnosis... because it is a LEGIT CONDITION! I don’t know how to focus on anything longer than 15 minutes any more because I’m so used to being interrupted alllll the time when the kids are home. A zillion tabs open. Keep looking at my phone for distraction or the next fire to put out. Totally forget what I’m doing. And I had a 1v1 consultation call I completely forgot about!!!! (Really she called me 45 minutes after our scheduled time.🤦♀️ I made it up to her!! But how unprofessional!!) There’s a zillion things I wanted to accomplish this first week .. it almost put pressure on myself. It’s almost like I was working against myself and all over the place. Ping ping ping I don’t like living like this. Is there hope for me?!?! Look there’s a squirrel 🐿 #workfromhomelife #socialmediava #pinterestmanagerlife #contentcreator #backtoschool #digitalmarketingexpert #mombrain #momadhd #squirrelbrain #backtoworkigo #momstruggles #mommabear #workingmom #wahmlife
Of course I want to smell your feet Boston 😏. Especially when I’m trying to complete this assignment .... #lifewithboys💙 #wackywilliams #sahminschool #globalbusiness #momadhd
How many times have we posted a picture where we are smiling but in reality you are having a hard time at the moment? I'm having a really hard moment in my life. It's really hard to be a mother to teens. I believe we dont have enough support to support each other as mothers of teens, especially teens with ADHD and learning disabilities. At the moment I feel alone with this issue. I feel nobody can relate to me so I cant open up. I mean I'm at the point where I feel lost . I can't get support anywhere. Dont get it wrong my family is very supportive but they can't relate. And I believe in God and I rely on my faith but at the moment I feel the need of action. Please don't tell me "you are such a great mom" because I know I am , I bust my butt for all of my kids. Don't tell me you got this because at the moment I don't. Don't tell me he is going to grow out of it because we don't know the future and if I knew he was going to grow out of it , I wouldn't worry. Yes I pray with him Yes I correct him Yes I give him love Yes I give him advice Yes he goes to therapy Yes he goes to alternative medication YES I HAVE TRIED EVERYTHING! I just feel lost at the moment. #lostmommy #momtoteens #tiredmom #momadhd #adhd #learningdisabilities #mommyneedsprayer #faith #hope #mommaoffive #dontpreach #teenyears #love #support #mentalhealthsucks #ig_motherhood #freeto #niquienmequiteloguapa

I have extremely strong daughters. I just need to be strong enough to raise them to use their strength right. ~~~~~ #geekmom #strongdaughters #raisingstrongwomen #askmeaboutmyfeministagenda #givemestrength #adultadhd #momadhd #parentingwithadhd
You would have thought the 15 children had been here! 😭 But, I am now company free and finally relaxing. But first? Gotta sort some of this out before I play with Bobzilla. I need more Dying Light and Animal Crossing! ~~~~~ #momlife #momfail #preschooler #toddler #messyhouse #adhd #adultadhd #momadhd #hypoactive #toomanytoys #timetothrowsomeout
