The Ordinary Business®️ Podcast

The ADHD-Friendly Systems Hillary Ervin Uses to Run Her Business [Mini Series]


Listen Later

This conversation is part of a mini series on the ordinary-but-real health complexities so many business owners face. We’re talking honestly about capacity, caregiving, and the behind-the-scenes adjustments we make to keep our businesses sustainable.

In this episode, I sit down with Hillary, a registered dietitian and business owner who found out she has ADHD after building her business. If you’ve ever wondered how to keep your keys, thoughts, and clients from falling into the void—or why “cute bowls” are basically survival tools—this one’s for you.

Today, Hillary gets real about theme days, ditching rigid schedules, and exactly how she structures her week to save sanity and keep work actually fun. I dig into what actually helps when timers, sticky notes, and boundaries all threaten to unravel, and why asking for help isn’t “cheating”—it’s basically required. If you’re navigating running a business while also juggling motherhood and re-learning your brain, this episode is basically a group hug.
