Cleaning Your Car with ADHD

Episode 107 is a really unusual episode of the Soles to Soul Care for Trauma and AuDHD because my guests for this one are Peadar and Danny, a couple of very young entrepreneurs from Atlantic Valets. Not technically self-care professionals and yet, when I met them recently, something they said made me realise they’d be delightful guests and they were.

I love their energy, enthusiasm and desire to help their customers. If you’re in or near Achill, check out Atlantic Valets and wherever you’re based, I hope this episode reminds you that you deserve clean, organised and welcoming environments. It can especially challenging to create and maintain them with ADHD but supports do exists.

What helps you keep your car clean (enough)?

le grá (with love),

FULL TRANSCRIPT

Many people listening, they will have AuDHD or ADHD and there’s the gulf between basic self-care in terms of what we would like to be doing for ourselves and what is more of a challenge. So I will ask you a little bit about that, like how might listeners make it easier for themselves to clean their own cars?

Welcome to episode 107 of the Soles to Soul Care for Trauma and AuDHD podcast. I thought they were so adorable when I met them at a local networking event.

I wanted them to come on and help all my ADHDers to clean your car, know that you deserve a delicious car to drive around in.

They are Danny and Peadar from Atlantic Valets and they are so new to business and they’re doing so much amazing work so quickly. I’ve been going for like over nearly 22 years now and they are so on message and just so joyful and delightful.

I hope that they’ll inspire you to keep your environments clean, to outsource it where that’s an act of self-care for yourself. They’re based in Achill but wherever you are you might have similar and I really hope you enjoy this very unusual episode.
