On this episode our guest Chrysty Lockhart of the Start Scared podcast is joining us to talk about her journey as a parent of a newly ADHD diagnosed 7 year old boy.  We chat about what it's like to have a kid with ADHD and how she's changed things at home and school for him. Even if you don't have kids you will feel seen, understood, and hopeful for any future kids you might have! Don't miss this episode. 

Guest Bio: 

Chrysty is a wife, bonus and bio mama, teacher, host of the Start Scared podcast and an Enneagram 6 who used to be bound by what she thought she was supposed to say, do or be. SO much so that she has lost herself in the chaos of everyday Mom life and is trying to discover who she is in real time! She is passionate about empowering and motivating other Mamas to cut through the BS stories they tell themselves and find clarity to start scared on putting themselves first, because who they are outside of being a Mama still matters!

On this episode we are talking about how you even begin to build a daily routine with ADHD. Building off of episode 54 where we discussed why you need  a routine, this episode helps you figure out what to make part of your routine by asking yourself four simple questions: 

1) Is there something you want to change or do differently in your current life? 
2) Is there something new you want to try?
3) Are there any goals that you have but haven't met yet? 
4) What do you need to do to feel good about yourself daily? 

So listen to this episode and then get out your journals and journal it all out!

This episode is all about journaling! From the benefits, to getting started, to not having a one-size-fits-all mentality, this is a wonderful episode for anyone who wants to start journaling but just doesn't know where to start.  

Today's guest is Meghan Marie Hurley-Powell and she just wrote a book all about journaling! Here's a little info on Meghan: 

Meghan is a writer, podcaster, and professor with a PhD in English. She’s deeply passionate about words, books, critical thinking, personal growth, and self-empowerment for women.

If you've ever struggled to build a routine (in general, a "morning" routine, a personal development routine, etc.) then this episode is for you. 

On this episode we chat about:

1) Why it's had for ADHDers to start a routine and stick with it
2) Why routines are important for ADHDers
3) Why the trendy or typical "successful people" routines don't always work
4) How you can build a sustainable routine for your ADHD brain

Want to build a sustainable routine? Here are today's tips:

1) Create more than one routine- create numerous versions of your routine that fit your energy levels or time constraints
2) Use timers and visual aids to help you build the routine
3) BABY STEPS- don't try to build a big routine all at once. Build it one step at a time (and check out the book Atomic Habits by James Clear for more insight)
4) Get rid of the idea that the routine can only bein the morning and let it fall where you need it to depending on your schedule. 
5) Choose what your want/need to work on and don't worry about anything else people say you should do
6) Be okay with it being just "good enough" and not "perfect"

Today's episode is all about marking your ADHD, Anxiety, Depression or other mental health issues from the world. What is masking? Well, it's simply pretending you don't have an issue or disorder. It's a character you can put on each day to fit in and not seem different. It's an exhausting tool that just leads to more anxiety, eating disorders, and substance abuse issues. Masking is something we have to slowly unravel in order to understand ourselves a but better and show up in the world as our authentic selves.
