E083: Exercise & Rituals as Self Care for ADHD with Dina Quondamatteo, The ADHD Lawyer


Listen Later

Our guest this week is Dina Quondamatteo, better known as The ADHD Lawyer. We're talking about self care for moms who have ADHD and who better to teach us first than a mom who has been momming for 17 years? Movement and exercise is a great way to get our dopamine flowing, and Dina will encourage you no matter where your physical ability currently stands. Our discussion isn't about what you look like, or achieving that goal weight. Instead, we talk about: -how can we take care of ourselves through exercise -using exercise as a natural and free ADHD treatment -how Dina stays committed when she does not have motivation -what you can do to get started when you are feeling overwhelmed -utilizing rituals to stay on track throughout the day   Taking care of yourself is a basic requirement of living - like food and water - not a luxury item. Self-care can and must be done in every stage of motherhood. Get ready - let's figure out what self-care truly fits you. You are worthy. You are valuable. You are not alone.   Dina's journey is part of our March Mama Madness Series. Be sure to listen to part 1, when Dina shares her ADHD diagnosis story of being diagnosed later in life around 40. Dina has an innate ability to be strong and vulnerable simultaneously, with infectious enthusiasm and drive to encourage others with ADHD. We talked about juggling school and rearing twins, getting to know your life long roommate called ADHD, and why she went back to law school at age 40 and was driven enough to get accommodations for the Bar Exam. Get ready to laugh and cringe as you hear parts of your life woven through Dina's story as she shares her ADHD journey with us, and witness her perseverance and persistence in the face of insurmountable obstacles. Come'on. Meet your fellow Successful ADHD Mama.   Click here for the Show notes and transcription.    Is your time blindness wreaking havoc on your life? Ready to cut some chaos from your day?
