As women with ADHD, we've tried it all… the quick fixes, the shiny objects, the big promises… and sometimes we feel better. At least for a little bit.

But the truth is, none of it is going to matter if we don’t have a solid foundation for our confidence in the first place.

In today’s episode, I want to go back to the basics and to help you find peace as you build a solid foundation of confidence.

ADHD can be so insanely difficult! Honestly, sometimes it just makes me want to scream (or actually scream). 

During those hard moments, when I am angry about the way my ADHD brain works, I remind myself of these 6 truths. And, while it doesn’t take away the difficulty, it helps me to be confident and remember my worth in the midst of the challenges.

Because confidence is KEY. To our relationships, our success, our parenting, our work, and everything in between. So join me in building God-centered confidence in this podcast!

My ADHD brain has so many ideas… which ones do I pursue?!

In today’s episode, I will encourage you to ask yourself some basic questions that will help you to determine which ADHD passion projects you should (and shouldn’t) pursue.

I hope you find this episode helpful!

How we think about ourselves affects everything - everything we think, everything we perceive, everything we do. From the way we respond to others, to decisions we do (or don’t) make, and everything in between - confidence is KEY to living a happy, successful life as a woman with ADHD. 

Have you ever experienced the high-highs and the low-lows of the emotional rollercoaster that is ADHD in women?

I don’t know about you, but sometimes I find it nauseating.

Podcast: Organized on Purpose

Who doesn’t love checking things off their to-do list? Knowing you are accomplishing so much and being so productive, feels so good.

And who doesn’t feel frustrated when it feels like there are a million things left on your to-do list at the end of the day? Believe me, I get it. 

So, how do we, the women with ADHD, get everything done?

The short answer? We don’t. 

Why? Because we have incredible ADHD brains with a million incredible ideas rolling around in them! And, we have families that we want to spend time with, and we likely have a million responsibilities.

As women with ADHD, we also struggle with things like perfectionism, imposter syndrome and time management. So give yourself some grace!

The reality is, you can’t do everything, or at least, not all at the same time, and not by yourself.

But, hear me out. There are five things you can focus on that will help you to get “more” done, or at least feel like you’re getting more done.

Listen to today’s episode to learn how you can feel better about what you do get done, and stress less about what you don’t get done on your to-do list.
