ADHD Parenting Hack: How to Keep a Routine When You Suck at Routines!


Listen Later

ADHD parents, let’s be honest—how are we supposed to keep a routine for our ADHD kids when we can’t even remember where we put our phone (or our sanity)? If consistency feels like an impossible dream and your best-laid plans always end up buried under a pile of laundry, this episode is for you.

Today, we’re breaking down ADHD-friendly systems that actually work—even when your brain is running purely on caffeine and vibes. From automating the chaos with alarms and visual cues to setting up a “Sh*t Has Hit the Fan” backup plan, I’m giving you real, practical ways to keep things on track without relying on sheer willpower.
