About this episode
Ever feel like you're "just too much"—too scattered, too loud, too mistake-prone, too ditzy, just…too all over the place? Maybe you dropped your phone in the ocean and screamed "noooo" until you cried? (Raising my hand slowly…) If so, you're in the right place. This last couple of weeks has been tough – a sinus infection, perimenopause brain fog, sunburned kids, lost phones, scraped bumpers, too-much-talking children, and waves of "am I too much for everyone?" If you're a mama with ADHD barely keeping your head above the laundry—err, water—this one's for you. Here's what we're discussing today: Why "careless mistake" is a phrase I wish would disappear (like my phone in the waves) The inside scoop on what "I'm too much" really means—and how it's all relative (spoiler: it's not you, it's the situation and who you're with) My tried-and-true tricks for loving yourself through chaos, mistakes, and feeling like a walking, talking, sticky note of forgetfulness How to communicate with your family when your ADHD turns up to level eleven—and what a little vulnerability can do for your relationships What it looks like when you stop trying to shove yourself into everyone else's "normal" and start being unapologetically YOU (even if "you" occasionally forgets the sunscreen)
