Don't forget to grab your FREE ticket to the Everyday Neurodivergent Parenting Summit happening May 11-14! If you've ever felt like motherhood was supposed to be the thing that finally felt easy — and instead it somehow got harder — this episode is for you. Greer sits down with Amy Marie Hann, ADHD coach and mom of neurodivergent kids, for an honest, grounding conversation about what it actually feels like to parent with ADHD. Not the productivity-hack version. The real version — the shame, the overcommitment, the mental load that never seems to let up. Amy talks about why ADHD moms are so prone to over-extending themselves (hint: it's not a discipline problem — it's how your brain processes time and priority), and why the gap between the mom you imagined being and the mom you are right now can feel so painful. But this isn't a heavy episode. It's a hopeful one. Amy shares where to actually start when everything feels urgent and overwhelming — and it's not another complicated system. It's something much smaller, and much more doable. She also talks about why taking care of yourself isn't selfish — it's one of the most powerful things you can do for your neurodivergent kids. They also get into something that feels quietly important: safety. What it means to find environments where your family can actually exhale. And why, as the mom, you often have to be the one who goes first. In this episode, you'll hear about: Why ADHD can make motherhood feel like a character flaw, not a skill gap The hidden exhaustion of over-committing and time blindness Where to start when you're overwhelmed and the to-do list feels never-ending Why self-care for ADHD moms isn't a luxury — it's the foundation The power of modeling regulation, routine, and rest for your kids What it looks like to build a life that actually fits your brain and your family You are the right parent for your child. Even on the hard days. Especially on the hard days.
