48) ADHD in Motherhood with ADHD coach Emma

Motherhood is overwhelming by nature, but for some, the overwhelm is more than just a typical challenge—it's a daily battle that needs more than just understanding. It's well-documented that women, especially in their 30s and 40s, are being diagnosed with ADHD later in life, often after years of managing symptoms in silence. Today, Emma, an ADHD coach from ADHD Potential⁠ , joins Eva and Maren to explore how ADHD presents in motherhood and share strategies for managing the overwhelm that comes with both.

In this episode, Emma offers valuable insights into how ADHD impacts mothers' routines, emotional regulation, and expectations. She shares practical tips on how to create structure while managing ADHD symptoms, all while maintaining a mindset that embraces self-compassion. Routine is key, but it's the setting of realistic expectations that can be a game-changer for mental well-being.

Whether you’ve been diagnosed with ADHD, suspect you might have it, or simply struggle with the challenges of motherhood, this episode is packed with actionable advice to help you manage yourself, your family, and your mindset.

Key Takeaways:

  • How ADHD manifests in motherhood and its unique challenges

  • Practical tips for setting routines and realistic expectations

  • How to manage overwhelm while prioritizing mental health

  • Understanding the surge in ADHD diagnoses among women and mothers
