E189: Finding Support as an ADHD Mom: Cultivating Real-Life Friendships & Prioritizing Yourself

Author: Patricia Sung | ADHD Coach for Moms with ADHD May 18, 2023 Duration: 21:59

Who's in your support circle? 

Moms often put ourselves at the bottom of the list, including friendships and how we surround ourselves with support. 

Yet, you need support just as much as your children do. You need real-life connections. You deserve rest and down time. 

Cuz here's the truth: we can't regulate our own emotions when we're burnt out, worn down, and feeling alone. And when we can't regulate ourselves, guess who else isn't regulated while hitching a ride on your struggle bus… yup, your family. Yikes.

Today we're talking all about why I started this all-inclusive annual luxury retreat & conference for ADHD moms and who this event is meant for. Here's your official invitation to join a welcoming group of moms in person to rest, hang out together, build your support system, and learn to take care of yourself. 

Early bird registration starts today through May 31st, so grab your ticket here. The first few moms who register will be given the opportunity to register for one of the intimate VIP sessions, too!

And if you can't make it this year, what will you do to take care of yourself? Because you deserve care, too.

Ever feel like you're running a marathon with no finish line in sight, while everyone else seems to be on a leisurely stroll? That mental clutter, the constant search for your keys, the guilt over forgotten appointments-it's not a personal failing. It's often the lived experience of motherhood when you're also navigating adult ADHD. Motherhood in ADHD is a space created specifically for that reality. Hosted by Patricia Sung, an ADHD coach who gets it because she lives it, this podcast digs into the intersection of a neurodivergent brain and the demands of raising a family. You'll find conversations that move beyond simple tips, offering brain-based science and practical strategies tailored for moms whose minds work differently. Episodes explore how to structure your days in a way that works with your ADHD, not against it, and rethink parenting approaches to reduce overwhelm for both you and your kids. It’s about education that leads to self-compassion, replacing shame with understanding. Tune in for honest talk about productivity that actually sticks, managing mental health, and building systems that acknowledge your unique wiring. This is more than just a podcast; it’s a companion for redefining what success looks like in your home and in your mind, helping you move from barely coping to truly thriving.
