Adult ADHD & Parenting: What Matters Most?

🤯I had no idea that I had ADHD for the first 34 years of my life. I ignored the struggles, pushed down the emotions, shamed myself, created elaborate coping strategies and went on blissfully unaware. But it became glaringly obvious, the minute I became a mother. It's not a unique story, a lot of us lost our ability to cope with ADHD symptoms once we became parents.... which I actually think is a great thing, hard as it seems, because I may never have known! ❤️

❤️Our children are our everything, it's natural to want to be the "perfect parent" but without accepting our shortcomings first, we won't even come close. I'm proud of today's episode, there's some real value and insight in there that I found through research on the topic, along with my own trial and error, but the improvement is ongoing. You are never finished on the journey of parenthood. I would love to hear about your experience and any strategies or tips you have used that I may not have mentioned, so that we can share it with the ADHD community.🔥🙌
