What if everyone hates me? What if no one reads my book? No one told me that writing a book came with an existential crisis. Wrestling with how to write the book that moms need, while also showing up fully as myself, and writing words I can stand by for decades to come… this has been a lot more weighty than I expected.

E260: Are You Lazy and Procrastinating or Prioritizing for Later? 17:39

17:39

HOT TAKE: I don’t believe people with ADHD are lazy. There is a reason that they don’t want to or can’t do the thing, and when you untangle that obstacle, voila! It’s easier to get things done. How do you know the difference between procrastinating and prioritizing for later? There are some things in life we can’t avoid, so how do you deal with them? How do you know when it truly is not the time for certain tasks and feel okay setting them aside without worrying if you’ll never remember them again? Here’s a clip from Successful Mama Meetups during our month themed "Procrastination or Burnout? (How to tell the difference between when you need rest & when you’re avoiding something)” because the mamas requested this topic. You’re not alone in this. I’m sharing supportive strategies for dealing with too many tasks – many of them unappealing – and not enough time to do them all. Understanding ADHD's impact on prioritizing makes a huge difference in how you deal with the never-ending to do list of adulting and parenting. Let’s dive in!

Ditch the quest for Pinterest perfection and actually get stuff done. In this episode, I’m getting real about how my book proposal is going amidst juggling the whirlwind of parenting and work projects. The highs and lows of writing are kicking in already. Do I need to write multiple books because there's just too much to say? Slow your roll, Patricia! One step at a time! I still have to balance work and family life, which is no easy feat, especially while ADHD and parenting are being greatly affected in America’s current situation. I don’t have a lot of answers today, but I have honest stories to share about what makes this goal difficult, yet worthwhile. Come along while I attempt to figure out how to make big dreams and goals a reality while keeping my sanity.

When you’ve yelled at your family and said things you regret during a grownup temper tantrum and wish you could hide under a rock forever, what do you do next?

You chose this person for a reason. You love them. Aaaaand relationships are complicated. Sometimes you may not LIKE your partner as much as you love them. Adding ADHD in the mix is more than another layer of complexity to your relationship, whether it affects you, your partner, or both. As Valentine's Day approaches, here’s a clip from Successful Mama Meetups during our month theme "I love you, but I don't like you". I’m sharing supportive strategies for fostering strong, loving connections. Understanding ADHD's impact on your relationships makes a huge difference in how you interact together and stay together.

No one pushes your buttons like your kids or partner can! Angry moms unite! Jokes aside, when anger gets out of hand, nothing good happens. Not only do we hurt ourselves and the people around us, the shame and guilt add on even more weight. This was a huge problem for me for the first few years of parenting. I still yell sometimes cuz I’m not perfect. You can be free of the angry red eyed monster, too. How can you tell you’re about to lose your cool? What can you stop taking your anger out on your family? How can you show up as the caring, calm mom you want to be? Let’s discuss.
