142. ADHD-Friendly Homemaking Tips That Work for Everyone (with Practical Solutions + Actions You can Implement TODAY!)

Let’s be real—keeping up with a home can feel impossible when your brain works differently than what traditional routines expect.

Whether you’ve been diagnosed with ADHD, relate to executive function challenges, or just feel like your brain doesn’t respond well to rigid schedules and “shoulds,” this episode is a breath of fresh air.

We’re exploring real-life homemaking tips designed for ADHD minds—but beneficial for anyone who struggles with motivation, focus, follow-through, or overwhelm. These strategies are compassionate, flexible, and easy to personalize—perfect for moms, neurodivergent women, and Type B personalities who are doing their best in chaotic seasons.

This episode will meet you where you are—with science-backed insights, realistic routines, and zero judgment.
