Wearing all the hats? Juggling all the things? Never enough time for yourself? Us too!! 

In this episode of the Unconventional Business Podcast, I’m joined by the wonderful Claire Quigley Ward, host of the All Aboard ADHD podcast, ADHD coach and fellow parent, to discuss the many and varied challenges of managing ADHD while doing all the things (and trying to be a reasonably well-balanced happy human).

We discuss:

• The many roles we play in our lives and the many people we want to help, and how we manage our advocacy work on top!
• Claire’s ADHD aha moment, as a result of a diagnosis for her child
• The importance of self-care to ensure we can fulfil the many roles we play, along with the real-life challenges of actually making time to do it.
• The additional challenges of parenting during perimenopause (hello brain fog!) and the ever-lurking issue of avoiding burnout.
• Claire’s common ‘pinch points’ as an ADHD mum of ADHD kids - why is bedtime so hard!?
• The constant struggle with our need to feel ‘productive’ vs the need to protect time to just be ourselves, without the demands of our various roles in life.
• Why we need to come together as a community and support each other, particularly those of us who are neurodivergent, parenting neurodivergent kids.

If you’re wearing all the hats, we get it. The juggle is real and you’re not alone. This episode is for you.
