A lot of Amber's work is centered around neurodiversity, as she brings her experience of having ADHD, as well as parenting children with ADHD to much of what she does. As soon as Amber and I got started in this conversation, I knew we would need more time. I wanted to make sure to dig into ADHD as it relates to women, as well as ADHD as it relates to kids. Amber was so kind to agree to turn this into a two-part conversation. This is Part 2 of our conversation - all about kids and ADHD. In Part 1 (Episode 696), we talked all about women and ADHD. Whether or not you are parenting a child with ADHD, your kid is in school with kids who have ADHD. This conversation can help you as a parent to your own kids, but also as a parent who supports other kids in your community. Listen in to hear Amber share: 3 Types of ADHD in kids and how they manifest differently How her 2 children with ADHD exhibit very different symptoms The importance of acknowledging ADHD as a dopamine deficiency in the brain The connection between anxiety and ADHD When to seek a professional assessment for your child's mental health How a diagnosis can be helpful, even a powerful tool, especially if your child has a strong tendency to mask their symptoms The layers of making decisions around medicating your child who has ADHD and different kinds of medications that can support children who have ADHD How all parents and kids can be supportive of neurodivergent kids in the community Some of the superpowers and superstrengths of kids with ADHD Links Mentioned: Connect with Amber: https://amberhawley.com/ Podcast: The Easily Distracted Entrepreneur Amber's work with couples Dr Amen's ADD 7 Types Quiz Amber on FB Amber on IG Amber on LinkedIn Sponsor info and promo codes: Please find our sponsor information here: shamelessmom.com/sponsor/ Interested in becoming a sponsor of the Shameless Mom Academy?

We all have 100+ things on our to-do lists and probably at least 100 more things in our heads that we need to do. There's no way to remember it all or get it all done. It's pretty common to brain dump a list of to-do's for the day, setting ourselves up for failure because the list is too long, we have too many distractions, and/or we simply lose momentum. Relate much? Well, Easily Distracted Entrepreneur, you may continue to be frustrated because you're more focused on the list and checking things off the list than you are on the actual planning of the to-do's. And that's what we're talking about this week on the podcast with productivity coach Mridu Parikh. Listen in as we talk about the value of the brain dumps, but the power behind the planning. Mridu shares why you should only have five things on your big list and how to approach getting each of those things done. And be sure to listen through to the end, where she shares a tip that will make you feel silly but is sure to help you get that nagging task off your list. About Mridu Parikh: Ready to get control of all your demands? Then you need Mridu Parikh, The Stress Squasher, on speed dial. Overwhelmed women business owners work with Mridu to prioritize and systemize so they take control of their demands and distractions – at home and at work. She is passionate about getting women the results they want, whether it's doubling their revenue, losing weight, or creating stronger boundaries. Mridu is a productivity coach, founder of Life Is Organized, host of the Productivity On Purpose podcast, and author of the best-seller, Accomplish It.

I love the idea of looking for things to celebrate in the everyday. So when my podcast manager told me that episode 150 of the podcast was coming up, I wanted to do something special. Rather than record a solo episode (which she knows is a big challenge for me), she suggested that someone interview me for the episode. And since she's a podcaster too, she was the perfect candidate for this! This week on the podcast, Abby Herman, podcast manager and owner of The Content Experiment, interviews me on my own podcast to talk about how my business has changed over the years, how podcasting has impacted my business, what I've learned in the last 150 episodes, and what I'd do differently if I had to start over today. Of course, we cover a whole lot more in this episode, and it was so fun to hear some of the insights that Abby has had over this last year of working together. Be sure to tune in! About Amber Hawley: Amber Hawley is a licensed therapist, multiple biz owner and former tech industry drop out who works with high-achieving, easily distracted entrepreneurs with mindset and strategies to stop suffering for success.

Nuerodivergence can be an amazing superpower for entrepreneurs that often leads to more creativity and inventiveness over the course of like a weekend than might seem feasible, but with that drive and extreme productivity comes some intense hyper-focusing and an equally big crash. In this episode, I talk with Amber Hawley, private practice owner and host of The Easily Distracted Entrepreneur and Couples Fix podcasts, about neurodivergence creativity, the process of bringing ideas to life, and how to create an environment that supports the way a neurodivergent brain gets things done, as well as about the crash that can follow big ideas and actions.

We have a lot on our plates, and there's a lot to distract us. From life events to phone notifications to all the programs and offers we feel like we “need,” there's no shortage of things to take us away from what's important. But what IS important to you right now? Hopefully it's a little bit of life harmony. It is for me! As this episode is being released, my team and I are days away from taking two weeks away from work. We had a plan going into this holiday season, it got sidetracked a bit, but then we buckled down to get it done. Because we determined what was important. That's exactly what today's guest, Amber Hawley, is talking about today: determining what's important and making the right decisions to ensure you stay the course. And as a client who has first-hand experience in my team pushing to get everything done, this is such a meaningful conversation. You won't want to miss it.
