When it was still in publication, Martha Stewart Magazine published a monthly calendar that included Marth’s tasks for that month. I used to read it both for humor and education. Many of the things on her list I didn’t even realize were things that needed to be done (ie, vacuum mattresses). Most of them weren’t things most people would ever need to do (ie, “shampoo and groom the donkeys” or “take inventory of the wine cellar”) but each month there was typically at least one thing that was helpful for me to remember to put structure around (ie, “reapply flea and tick repellent to dogs” ). For the month of June, I picked one of Martha’s previous June calendars and found several items to approach with an ADHD-Friendly lens. In this episode I share what I learned from my “Martha’s Month” experiment, including some funny adaptations, and even something I plan to continue doing!

Jigsaw puzzles are one of my favorite hobbies. Through the years I have observed what elements contributed to making a puzzle feel like fun and play versus work or frustration. I captured the details and am sharing them in the hopes it will provide an ADHD-Friendly way for you to explore what ingredients are needed for something to feel like fun and play in your life!

Not only is summer here… it is already half-way over! In today’s podcast I share some ADHD-Friendly strategies and tools I use to prioritize my time during the summer months. Without the structure of the school year, it is even more important that I use external tools to help me remember my priorities and follow through with my intentions with more ease. I invite you to explore what you want to check off this summer and what ADHD-Friendly tools will help you succeed!

In this episode, I share another favorite tool in my Personal Owner’s Manual… a Reward Menu.

One of my go-to tools in my Personal Owner’s Manual is an Energy Chargers Menu. In today’s episode I introduce the concept of energy chargers and drainers and share examples of each. At one point I struggle to remember the name of the astronaut in Apollo 13 who has to conserve amps in order to restart the computer on the spacecraft (it is Ken Mattingly… UGH!). I was inspired to make a new tool for my POM I call “Charging Your Battery” and am posting a picture if you want to check it out. I hope you are inspired to capture a “menu” of items that charge your batteries as you hear the many examples I share.
