205 // Master the Mundane: Thriving as a Mom with ADHD - with Amy Marie Hann

If you’re a mom with ADHD (or parenting kids with ADHD), daily life can feel like constant overcommitment, burnout, and chaos. But what if instead of pushing harder, you learned to strategically parent your brain?

In this conversation, I’m joined by Amy Marie Hann—author of Master the Mundane: How to Manage Your Life, Home, and Family as a Mom with ADHD which comes out September 10, 2025. Diagnosed at five with ADHD and raising three neurodivergent kids, Amy brings both lived experience and practical strategies for building rhythms that actually work for the ADHD brain.

Together we talk about:

  • The differences between the boredom zone, depletion zone, ADHD burnout, and activation zone—and how to recognize which one you’re in
  • Why urgency feels motivating but creates unnecessary chaos in everyday life (and what to do instead)
  • What “executive function capacity” is, and how to “budget” it like a bank account
  • How to use the Daily 3 to keep life moving even on burnout or low-energy days
  • A realistic plan for balancing novelty with capacity so you don’t overcommit
  • How to ditch “rage decluttering” and instead create sustainable habits for your home

If you’ve ever felt like your ADHD brain is working against you, this episode will help you see that it’s not broken - it just needs the right strategies and support to thrive.

About Amy: Amy Marie Hann is the author of Master the Mundane: How to Manage Your Life, Home, and Family as a Mom with ADHD. Diagnosed with ADHD at age five, she’s now a mom of three, a foster and adoptive parent, and a homeschooling mom who has navigated life with ADHD alongside her husband, kids, dad, and sister. Amy believes the ADHD brain is uniquely designed to bring good to the world—and that the greatest gift moms can give their ADHD kids is modeling what it looks like to thrive.

04 // THIS is Why You Don’t Have the Time to Declutter

Where do I start and when do I find the time? When I coach other moms, these are the same two questions I get time and time again. And I get it. When you’re overwhelmed, it’s hard to look at something as daunting as decluttering and think that something that requires so much energy and focus is something you can handle when you’re so inundated already. It’s one more thing to do on a never ending to-do list. And when it comes to time, it’s hard to even remember if you ate breakfast today, let alone whether you can squeeze in the time to declutter a junk drawer. Today I talk about why we feel so overwhelmed by the idea of decluttering, which causes us to avoid it altogether. Here is the recent Instagram post I mention about the three layers of stuff.
