She candidly discusses her initial guilt about discarding sentimental items and how the coaching she received helped her reframe these feelings.

Are you an ADHD mom who is easily distracted when trying to clean your home? Do you find yourself bouncing from room to room never really accomplishing anything? In this episode, I'm sharing with your part 5 of my time management strategy - zone cleaning! Instead of trying to tackle your whole house at once, zone cleaning allows you to break it down into manageable sections. You'll learn how to designate logical cleaning zones based on your home's layout and traffic patterns. Then decide whether you want to deep clean each zone weekly or monthly, and schedule it into your calendar. You'll get practical strategies like having a backup plan for when life inevitably disrupts your schedule. And if certain areas need more frequent attention, you'll learn how to double up zones without burning out. By rotating through specific rooms or living areas, you can create consistent cleaning routines that become healthy habits. No more aimless wondering of what to do next! Zone cleaning provides structure while reducing the overwhelm. If this episode blessed you, leave a review!

Coaching for Cluttered ADHD Christian Moms BOOK A CONSULTATION Do you ever look at the clock and wonder where the day went? Or even what you did that day? If you're like many ADHD moms, time management might seem like a never-ending battle. You're juggling kids, meals, work, and maybe squeezing in a moment for yourself—only to end up feeling like you've barely made a dent in your to-do list. When it comes to how we spend our time, our choice is usually dictated by whatever is needed by our kids and family. It's like spinning plates, right? We rush around trying to keep all the plates spinning at the same time. But the one plate we neglect that sadly ends up toppling over most times is our own basic fundamental needs. So many times we push our own needs to the back burner, thinking we'll get to it "later." By the time we're done taking care of everyone else, it's just more work to focus on taking care of ourselves. But what if prioritizing your fundamental needs could actually help you handle everything else better?

As an ADHD mom, managing the clutter in our homes often feels like we’re trying to hold water in our hands—no matter how hard we try, it just keeps slipping through. We see the endless piles of laundry, the kitchen counters buried under who-knows-what, and the kids’ rooms that look like mini tornado zones. This constant state of disarray affects our mental space, our energy, and our ability to enjoy time with our families. Here’s the reality: our brains are wired a bit differently, and traditional organization methods that work for others might not cut it for us. But that doesn’t mean we’re doomed to live in chaos. It means we need a tailored approach, one that understands the unique challenges ADHD brings to the table. This is where decluttering and systemizing come into play. Through simplifying our belongings and implementing systems designed to support our ADHD brains, we can create a home that feels more manageable and less overwhelming.

Decluttering can be emotionally hard at times! Decluttering is especially hard for ADHD moms who lack the executive function of emotional control which is your ability to manage your feelings to achieve your goals. It's like each object has its own story, a piece of our history, making the decision to keep or let it go feel impossible. The guilt of letting go can be particularly paralyzing. Maybe it's the guilt over money spent on things barely used, or the guilt from parting with gifts from loved ones. Or perhaps it's the sadness of acknowledging that certain phases of life are over, like the baby years, as we fold away tiny onesies our children will never wear again. These emotions can make us feel stuck, weighed down by the physical and emotional clutter in our lives. However, learning to let go of the old makes room not just in our homes but in our hearts and minds, for new experiences, relationships, and dreams.
