Surviving Chaos: Return Of The ADHD Mums!

We're back after an unexpected 18-month break, and what a whirlwind it's been! Life with ADHD never slows down, and we've both experienced some big changes that have reshaped our day to day completely.Gen's journey has taken her from co-parenting related job loss to university studies, from a relationship ending to dating adventures, and most significantly, through transformative EMDR therapy that's revolutionized her self-perception. Meanwhile, Claire's path has been dominated by health challenges – from employment discrimination due to illness to multiple diagnoses, a significant medical weight loss journey, and the emotional rollercoaster of losing her housing security before finally purchasing her first flat. Through it all, she thinks the clarity brought by her ADHD medication has helped her develop stronger boundaries and self-advocacy skills.Both of us have been exploring the possibility that we're not just dealing with ADHD but may also be on the autism spectrum – a common co-existing condition that explains many of our sensory and social experiences. This expanded understanding has brought greater self-compassion and clearer perspective.Moving forward, we're redesigning the podcast to focus less on education (there are plenty of experts doing that brilliantly) and more on normalizing and sharing authentic experiences. We'll maintain our signature "Highs and Lows" segments while adding more listener interaction, creating space for the ADHD community to connect through shared stories.If you have questions or experiences you'd like us to discuss? Reach out through our social channels – we want to platform more diverse voices within the ADHD community, whether you're a mother or not. Sisters in chaos unite!Support the showFurther TW: This podcast references at times: alcohol abuse, depression, mood disorders, medical emergency, miscarriage, traffic accidents, grief and loss, teen pregnancy, anxiety, abuse, PDA, low self esteem, and anti-depressant medications, disordered eating, hoarding...All music written and produced by Ash Doc Horror Lerczak.Artwork by GenFor more information about us, our podcast and our ADHD MUMS community, visit OUR WEBSITE.
