Description

Ever grappled with the circus act of balancing home, career and an ADHD diagnosis? Our guest, Jo from Gifted Gabba, is here to share her own personal journey with ADHD and how she elegantly maneuvers the whirlwind of family life and task management. She generously spills her secrets, including a game-changing strategy of taking a sweet 30 minutes before reacting to sparks that could potentially ignite a family flare-up. Jo is an ardent advocate of self-care for busy moms, and she stresses the importance of learning to delegate tasks that contribute to stress. We discuss how teaching kids responsibility and displaying vulnerability are crucial life skills that can fundamentally shift the family dynamics. And remember, it's not only okay but vital for moms to seek help and outsource tasks that become overwhelming - a team effort always ensures a smoother sail!Towards the final stages of our conversation, Jo emphatically circles back to the power of effective communication – a crucial tool in maintaining a healthy, happy household.
