If you're a mom with ADHD (or parenting kids with ADHD), daily life can feel like constant overcommitment, burnout, and chaos. But what if instead of pushing harder, you learned to strategically parent your brain? In this conversation, I'm joined by Amy Marie Hann—author of Master the Mundane: How to Manage Your Life, Home, and Family as a Mom with ADHD which comes out September 10, 2025. Diagnosed at five with ADHD and raising three neurodivergent kids, Amy brings both lived experience and practical strategies for building rhythms that actually work for the ADHD brain. Together we talk about: The differences between the boredom zone, depletion zone, ADHD burnout, and activation zone—and how to recognize which one you're in Why urgency feels motivating but creates unnecessary chaos in everyday life (and what to do instead) What “executive function capacity” is, and how to “budget” it like a bank account How to use the Daily 3 to keep life moving even on burnout or low-energy days A realistic plan for balancing novelty with capacity so you don't overcommit How to ditch “rage decluttering” and instead create sustainable habits for your home If you've ever felt like your ADHD brain is working against you, this episode will help you see that it's not broken - it just needs the right strategies and support to thrive.   About Amy: Amy Marie Hann is the author of Master the Mundane: How to Manage Your Life, Home, and Family as a Mom with ADHD.

Juno Wollf was born on October 11th of 2022 and was doing well until James noticed a lump under his right armpit.

Just 47 days after Juno's diagnosis on February of 2023, he passed away from this form of Pediatric Cancer, which is diagnosed in 20-25 kids each year. Juno only lived for a total of 114 days.

When we think about better time management and how to increase productivity, it's tempting to believe that if we could perfectly color-code our calendars or find the best scheduling hack, all the overwhelm and stress would disappear. Those of us who have tried those methods time and again, yet still feel overworked and frustrated, know they're not the quick fix we want them to be. Here's the good news: increasing productivity gets easier when you embrace holistic time management and accept yourself right where you are.In this episode, I'm thrilled to bring you an incredible interview with productivity coach Neill Williams. Neill is a Master Coach who specializes in helping female entrepreneurs improve productivity, efficiency, and performance, and she hosts the podcast, Success Genius. She is an advocate for taking care of yourself and building a business that truly supports you. You'll love her insights on how to increase productivity in a way that aligns with the life you want to create.One of the things I admire most about Neill's approach to productivity is how she focuses on its connection to science and physiology. Productivity isn't just about the clock—your mind, body, and emotions play a huge role in your time management. When we force ourselves to stick to a calendar or use external tools to fit the mold of productivity, we reinforce patterns of overworking and stress. Neill invites you to accept the unique state of your body, mind, and emotions to unlock a new kind of productivity–one that actually works for you.The most important factor in increasing productivity is taking into account what's happening inside of you–embracing it as part of your efficiency power, rather than something that's wrong with you. I'm so glad you're here with me to discover a new way forward. Let's do it!What you'll learn:The powerful impact of the nervous system on productivity and performanceWhat to do when your physiology doesn't match the plan you made on your calendarHow your “body budget” impacts focus and efficiencyExamples of tools to use to calm your nervous system and increase focusWhy slowing down can actually increase productivityYou can read the full show notes here.About Neill Williams Neill Williams is a Master Certified Life Coach, productivity expert, and host of the "Success Genius" podcast. After burning out as a corporate actuary working 60-80 hour weeks, Neill discovered how to leverage neuroscience and circadian rhythms to build successful coaching practice working just 10 hours per week. Diagnosed with multiple autoimmune diseases, Neill dove deep into the intersection of biology and productivity, creating the revolutionary 10-Hour Week Method that helps entrepreneurs get 40 hours of results in just 10 hours. As a mom, wife, and entrepreneur managing health challenges, Neill understands the reality of wearing multiple hats. Her evidence-based approach combines cutting-edge research with practical tools, helping ambitious women integrate work and well-being to achieve more while sacrificing less.Website: https://neillwilliams.com/ Podcast:

Send us a textWhat happens when a devastating cancer diagnosis collides with a lifelong passion for audiology? For Dr. Carla "Brandi" Smiley, it became the catalyst for reimagining how hearing healthcare could reach those most often left behind.Diagnosed with bilateral hearing loss at age six, Dr. Smiley's path to becoming an audiologist wasn't straightforward. After teaching kindergarten, surviving stage four lymphoma during her doctoral studies, and working across various healthcare settings, she continually witnessed the same problem: barriers to access for underserved communities.The solution came in an unexpected form during the 2020 COVID lockdown. While watching Tiny House Nation, Dr. Smiley envisioned a fully-equipped mobile audiology clinic that could travel directly to patients. Despite facing skeptical builders and financial hurdles, she persevered, crowdfunding her dream and creating a 15,000-pound clinic-on-wheels designed with intentionality to welcome everyone."I've had people who were disheveled and dirty and felt they weren't worthy enough to sit," she shares with emotion. "I tell them, 'This can be cleaned. You are worthy.'" This commitment to dignity drives her work with Head Start programs, assisted living facilities, and veterans' services.The tiny house clinic goes beyond convenience, it transforms lives. Dr. Smiley recalls fitting hearing aids for a man in end-of-life care whose wife hadn't had a meaningful conversation with him in 20 years. After the fitting, the couple reconnected through their wedding album from the 1940s. "Those moments are why we do this," she reflects.For hearing care professionals interested in mobile services, Dr. Smiley offers practical wisdom: start by identifying what you're already doing that could be mobilized. With headquarters now in Peachtree City and specialized services including diagnostic ABRs and auditory processing evaluations, she continues seeking grant funding to provide care at no cost to those in need.Ready to discover how mobile audiology might transform your practice or community?

FREE training here: https://programs.tracyotsuka.com/signup_What would it be like if you could see music as colors dancing in front of your eyes? For Justine Glaser, that's just a normal Tuesday.Justine is a creative force who doesn't just hear music, she sees it. Diagnosed with ADHD at age 3 and born with synesthesia, a rare neurological trait where sound shows up as color, Justine has always experienced the world differently. Instead of masking these traits, she's made them her superpower. As the founder of Blue Midnight Music and Colors by Midnight, she creates work that's bold, multi-sensory, and completely original.Diagnosed so young that her babysitter lost weight chasing her around, Justine's childhood was marked by curiosity, creativity, and, unfortunately, relentless bullying from ages 8 to 16. She calls the K-12 system "broken" for her neurodivergent brain, but everything changed when she left traditional school behind. Art school became her sanctuary, where her project-based learning style finally made sense.In this conversation, Justine and Tracy dive deep into how synesthesia shapes creativity, why she believes color comes from "an inherent sense of self," and how she creates personalized color palettes by listening to people's voices. They talk about performing as an alter ego named Blue Midnight, why ADHD makes it easier (not harder) to blend multiple disciplines, and how she's learned to honor her need for breaks and nature to stay creative.Justine's journey from a bullied kid drawing on people's houses to a multi-disciplinary artist proves that what makes you different isn't something to fix—it's your greatest gift.Resources:Website: https://www.bluemidnightmusic.com Website:  https://www.colorsbymidnight.com LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/justine-glaser-cdi-ccd-36aa4a1a8 Send a Message: Your Name | Email | MessageInstead of Struggling to figure out what to do next?

This is your journey. Take it your way, step by step." "Don't disqualify yourself from big goals just because they seem far away." "Have that big purpose. Search for that why and embrace that why." Bio: Jessper Maquindang's journey as a marathon runner is a testament to resilience and determination. Diagnosed with asthma as a child, he was initially kept away from physical activities, but he refused to let his condition define him. Instead of accepting limitations, he chose to rewrite his story. Inspired by the endurance and dedication of marathon runners, he set a goal to complete a marathon and gradually built up his stamina over time. He has also tackled ultra marathons, pushing his limits even further. His journey is not just about running—it's about proving that obstacles, no matter how daunting, can be overcome with perseverance and heart. Today, Jessper continues to inspire others with his story, showing that the road to success is paved with dedication, patience, and an unwavering belief in oneself. Whether he's training for his next race or reflecting on how far he's come, one thing is certain—he's not just running marathons; he's running toward a life without limits.

“I always say that singing and performing was as much a part of my DNA as cystic fibrosis.” Julia RaeFrom the moment Julia Rae could speak, she was singing, and from the moment she could dream, she was already imagining a bigger stage. As her mother fondly recalls, at just two years old, Julia was watching Barney on TV and asked, “How do I get in there and do that with him?” That instinct, that pull toward performance, was never just about the spotlight. For Julia Rae, the stage became her sanctuary, and later, her platform for purpose.Diagnosed with cystic fibrosis at birth, Julia's life has never followed an easy script. But instead of letting a chronic illness limit her, she embraced the full range of her voice, as a singer, actress, writer, and advocate. She didn't just want to perform; she wanted to make a difference.At 16, Julia founded Singing at the Top of My Lungs, a nonprofit inspired by her own hospital experiences. Initially, the organization supported both CF research and creative therapies at children's hospitals. But as larger institutions took a stronger lead in research, Julia saw a growing gap elsewhere.“I've decided to devote all of Singing at the Top of My Lungs to music and creative art therapies... They are significantly underfunded, not covered by insurance, and they are often, honestly, the unsung heroes of children's hospitals.”Julia's foundation now champions music and art therapies — the very programs that once transformed her own stays in sterile hospital rooms into spaces of joy and creativity. She knows firsthand that healing isn't just about medicine — it's also about expression, play, and being seen as more than your diagnosis.Her own career blossomed when a YouTube performance caught the attention of a Beverly Hills record producer, leading to her single “Be That Girl” being featured in the film The Greening of Whitney Brown. She's since performed the national anthem at major sports arenas, starred in national commercials, and most recently, in the 2024 film Playing Through. Her appearance on ABC's Listen to Your Heart introduced her to a national audience, but she never let fame outshine her mission.In parallel with her artistic pursuits, Julia has become a tireless advocate. She co-created and hosted Making It Matterwith the Boomer Esiason Foundation, currently leads Uncommon Lungs with Vertex Pharmaceuticals, and recently launched a podcast called A Deeper Look, spotlighting bold, thoughtful conversations with inspiring women.Julia Rae is more than a performer, she's a force. Her life is a testament to what happens when passion meets purpose, and when a voice refuses to be silenced by circumstance.For the chronic illness community, and for anyone who's ever been told “you can't” — Julia's story sings a different tune.She's not just making music.

Plus, University of Toronto's Gillian Einstein and Toronto Metropolitan University's Natasha Rajah on how biology, menopause, and social factors all shape women's risk, and what can be done to prevent cognitive decline.

Tired of ADHD strategies that don't work? Here's what actually does. FREE training here: https://programs.tracyotsuka.com/signup_You know that feeling when someone tells you you're "too intense" or "ask too many questions"? Lucia Kanter St. Amour has built an entire career on exactly those traits.Lucia is a negotiation expert, law professor, and the kind of ADHD woman who writes Amazon reviews so detailed she got invited to their exclusive Vine program. She's the author of For the Forces of Good, a guide to everyday negotiation that flips traditional power dynamics, and The Covert Buccaneer, a nonlinear novel that mirrors how her ADHD brain actually works. With a background in global law and leadership at UN Women, she combines strategy with a genuine understanding of how women navigate the world.Diagnosed with ADHD at 54 after a friend casually mentioned she'd known for decades, Lucia finally understood why she'd always felt like a "disco ball" in a world of dimmer switches. Her childhood was marked by misdiagnosed seizures (likely panic attacks from severe bullying) and years on experimental medication that left her struggling academically. But she found her superpowers in foreign languages, piano, and tennis, activities that naturally regulated her nervous system.In this conversation, she and Tracy explore how the traits that make us feel "too much" actually become negotiation superpowers. Our intensity, emotional intelligence, and hyperfocus are assets, not liabilities. They discuss why women avoid negotiating (it's costing us over a million dollars by retirement), how to practice with everyday situations like getting your toddler to eat dinner, and why deep listening transforms every interaction. Lucia also shares her journey from hating rigid law firm work to creating negotiation tools designed specifically for ADHD brains.Whether you're asking for a raise, navigating family dynamics, or simply wanting to be truly heard, Lucia shows that being "too much" isn't something to manage. It's your greatest strength.Resources:Website: https://www.pactumfactum.com/  YouTube: https://www.instagram.com/santaluciasf  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/luSend a Message: Your Name | Email | Message Instead of Struggling to figure out what to do next? ADHD isn't a productivity problem. It's an identity problem. That's why most strategies don't stick—they weren't designed for how your brain actually works.

Alex hasn't peed in 17 years — and he's been busy. Diagnosed at 11 with a rare kidney disease triggered by a brutal run of childhood illnesses, his life became a blur of seizures, dialysis, and a transplant that didn't stick. Now, between 7-hour nocturnal dialysis sessions, Alex co-owns two thriving Toronto restaurants and is building a creative community from scratch. In this episode, he talks about living with three kidneys (none of them working), how trauma forged his sense of purpose, and why “burnout” takes on a whole new meaning when your body's already pulling an all-nighter just to keep you alive.

TW: Open discussion of bipolar disorder, psychosis, psychiatric medication, suicidal ideation, and mental health crises. In this episode, NYC-based indie artist ROREY joins Jess to unpack the layered mental health journey behind her upcoming EP Dysphoria. Diagnosed with bipolar disorder at 21, ROREY shares what it felt like to be thrust into crisis mode, cycle through medications, and be left to process mania in solitude. Her candid reflections peel back the emotional truth of songs like “Nobody's Fault But My Own,” written from a moment of self-blame that later transformed into self-compassion. Together, they discuss the tension between healing and identity — how it can feel like your diagnosis erases the parts of you that once made sense. ROREY talks about redefining safety for herself, learning to be alone without feeling abandoned, and finding moments of spiritual clarity amid the chaos. This episode challenges the idea that recovery has to look linear, and instead offers a more nuanced take: maybe the most powerful thing you can do is simply stay. If you've ever felt like you were “too much,” or feared you'd never get back to the version of yourself before it all unraveled — this one will meet you right where you are.

Debi Mitchell's son Austin was diagnosed with Stage 3 Acute T Cell Lymphoblastic Non Hodgkins Lymphoma in 2021 when he was 12 years old, under the assumption that his issue before this diagnosis had to do with Asthma. Today, Austin is doing very well and is trying to establish himself as an actor. While spending her time during Austin's treatment at a Northern California Hospital which would become affectionately known as the "Kaiser Resort", Debi met other mom's who were with their children and were being treated for different forms of Pediatric Cancer. During this time in the "Kaiser Resort" these moms coalesced to form the MAMA BEARS FIGHTING CHILDHOOD CANCER Non-Profit, a Non-Profit which now has established Roots in a number of Northern California Hospitals.

Today's episode is one of the most powerful we've ever done on Money Rehab. Nicole sits down with a listener named Erin, who reached out after being diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer. Her message was simple, yet profound: “I need to get my finances in order to make sure my loved ones are taken care of.” What follows is a raw, courageous conversation about life, money, and legacy. Erin shares her fears, her love for her family, and the steps she's taking to give them financial peace of mind. Nicole brings in attorney Veronica Escobar to walk through the essentials of estate planning—from wills and trusts, to power of attorney and beyond.
