In this episode, I’m joined by Claire Britton, an ADHDer, mum of two, and paediatric Occupational Therapist. Together, we dive into the often confusing and frustrating world of executive function. You know the feeling - struggling to keep it all together, constantly questioning why everything feels so hard. We’re breaking down what executive function really is, why ADHD mums feel like they’re always on the back foot, and how we can start managing the daily chaos with more compassion and less overwhelm. Key Takeaways:  Claire’s “Admin Team” Analogy: Claire describes executive function as your brain’s “admin team,” and for ADHD mums, that team is often understaffed and struggling to keep up. It’s not failure - your brain is simply overworked and needs help.The Real Mental Load of Motherhood: ADHD mums carry an unseen, exhausting weight that goes far beyond school lunches and appointments. If you’ve ever ended your day feeling burnt out and wondering why you can’t do it all, this is for you - you’re not lazy, just carrying more than most can imagine.Practical Strategies for Mums Who’ve Tried Everything: Claire shares real tips like body doubling, habit stacking, and visual schedules - simple yet powerful survival tools for ADHD brains trying to stay on track.Medication, Self-Compassion, and Letting Go of Guilt: From Claire's personal perspective, she shares how medication can create mental breathing room, allowing you to manage more effectively, while self-compassion is key to releasing the guilt that so many ADHD mums carry. Why This Episode is a Must-Listen: This episode is a lifeline for mums feeling overwhelmed and like they're not measuring up, offering practical tools, a deeper understanding of your ADHD brain, and most importantly, the reminder that you are not alone in this journey.
