How to Deal with Spaghetti Brain #adhd #adhdproductivity #mentalhealth #selfcare self-worth Jan 14, 2024

I just got out of my weekly coaching call with my digital marketing coach extraordinaire, Nika Stewart.

I was having one of those moments where I had 6,000 brilliant ideas but not one focus.
And Nika had to rein me in.
Uber focused – love it.

Here I am a productivity coach for brain-based challenges li...

I didn’t feel like writing this morning.
Which is pretty weird for me because I love typing my thoughts on my iPad early in the morning curled up in a quilt, tea in hand.
But today the words haven’t flowed naturally.
They’re feeling a little stuck.
I’M feeling a little stuck.

Even though we're great abou...

Where’s Catherine?

 

On this episode of Where’s Waldo, we’re searching for Catherine.

After all, she has been eerily absent from inboxes this month.

That’s partly by design and partly because our life got very lifey - family and illness and caregiving oh my.

But that’s a story for another day.

Did you set your clocks back?

Today in the US (except super smart Arizona), we do the godforsaken time change.

This change messes me up for a week.

No idea why.

I guess I’m just crazy time sensitive.

 

Bob re-set most of the clocks last night.

Yes, he rocks.

And when I woke up in the dark th...

Play After Play Oct 22, 2023

Play after agonizing play.

Ohio State just kept plowing down the field wearing out our defense.

And leaving us wondering when our offense will finally show up to make the big play.

Any play really.

Penn State football is not for the faint of heart.

Some days feel like this.

You put your head d...

I went to our beach home last week.

I’m sure that conjures up magical thoughts for you like

  • A week off – so lucky!
  • Sunrise walks on the beach
  • Roasting marshmallows by the fire pit in the evenings as the sun set over the bay
  • Lazy paddles in the kayak on that same bay
  • Relaxing lounging reading...

The tire gauge indicated a low tire.

We were just heading back to the hotel at 1am after a spectacular shut out stripe out game PSU over Indiana.
I told hubby to go to bed, because I believe that everything is a little easier to deal with after some sleep.

In the morning, he discovered a screw in t...

Losing My Voice #adhdawareness #adhdcommunity #adhdproductivity #adhdspeaking #adhdstrengths #adhdvoice #focusforward Sep 10, 2023

It has been a long summer.

I haven't shared much about what happened so I'll give you the short version now.

After I returned from the absolutely magical life changing Real Speaking event in Santa Fe, I came down with bronchitis.

I don't see this as a coincidence.

Losing my voice immediately aft...

Too Busy Taking My Time #adhd #adhdcoaching #adhdcommunity #productivity Sep 08, 2023

“I was too busy taking my time,” she said to her husband.

I laughed.

And wrote it down.

Because too good not to share!

Isn’t that often true for ADHD?

Or for overwhelmed, stuck, stressed, burned out people?

This summer I found I was all of those things.

It wasn’t just ADHD kicking my *ss but ...
