Embrace The Muchness LLC ADHD Coaching & Education
Individual & Parent ADHD Coaching
Professional Development & Consultation

I'm an ADHDer and parent of ADHD children who provides ADHD coaching to individuals, groups and parents of ADHD children. I also enjoy providing professional consultation and professional development trainings for helping professionals! I live in Decorah, IA and provide services virtually to folks in the United States & Canada. I utilize a neurodiversity affirming approach which means I view ADHD as a valid variation in how the brain works. I help folks learn about how ADHD brains work and how to work with not against ADHD tendencies.

Sharing about neurodiversity in my 2nd grader's classroom today! I signed up to read to her class and these were the books sge chose for me to read. Ady and Me by Rich & Rox Pink is about a little girl with ADHD and she has a non-affirming teacher who cant see how her ADHD (portrayed as a cute little blob, Ady) contributes to the difficulties she has in school. Until she gets sent to the principals office who immediately sees her Ady and fires the teacher and emphasizes the beauty of all our differences. Turns out the principal has his own Ady. 😊

Poppy Pickle by Emma Yarlett is about a little girl with a big imagination. Her imaginations come to life and get a bit out of control. While not necessarily about ADHD, I wad encouraged when my 2nd grader pointed out that she related to Poppy Pickle's big imagination.

Well, I had an idea for a post, started working on it, got distracted, then had no clue at all what it was I intended to post. So, here's your real world ADHD post.

ADHD Tech Tip:
Take the time to customize your settings on the tech you use. If you find yourself regularly having to manually change a setting. Its worth it to take a few minutes to check if theres a way to change your default settings. Doing this for a few minutes 1 time saves you the executive functioning energy of having to adjust every single time and gives you back several minutes of your life each day!

Other examples:
Unsubscribe from the emails you always delete
Turn off notifications you always ignore
Set up a rule for your email to autocategorize emails that you always put in a folder but never open

What tech setting have you been procrastinating getting adjusted?

I just read this article from Additude about costs of ADHD care and would love to discuss with others to hear about your experiences, as I find parts of their data to be in line with my clients experiences and parts are quite different.

Here's a couple things I'm curious about from my community...

Have you had difficulty finding prescribers who take your insurance?

Do you have prescription plans that only cover generic medications? Or don't cover medications at all?

Have you had providers who you%household members were seeing who were in network with your insurance then choose to end their contracts with your insurer?

Overall- what pieces if any do you relate to?

My facebook memories reminded me that I shared these very important words from 4 years ago today. I think we can all use this reminder.

PS If you're not already following Morgan's work, she's a very talented AuDHD artist and storyteller and her work typically contains great reminders to pause and step back from all the complexity and just check inward on our needs in the moment.

I had the chance to sit down with Patrick from on his podcast, All Things Private Practice Podcast, where the focus is authenticity, normalizing self-doubt and impostor syndrome, and having REAL, unscripted conversations in the Private Practice and Entrepreneur space.

As an ADHD therapist, coach, and entrepreneur, navigating professional and personal life comes with unique challenges—and opportunities.

In this episode, we dive into topics like Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria (RSD), real-life ADHD accommodations for therapists, and the importance of authentic self-disclosure with clients.

Here are 3 key takeaways:

Accommodations Are Essential, Not Optional: Implementing simple strategies like concurrent note-taking, scheduled sending of emails, and pausing to address recurring thoughts can increase effectiveness in both sessions and business operations.

Name and Normalize Your Experience: Recognizing and labeling RSD can help you create space between feeling and reaction, leading to healthier decision-making and emotional regulation—especially when facing criticism or feedback.

Model Neurodivergent Coping Tools for Clients: Transparently sharing your own supportive strategies in sessions doesn’t just help you—it's also invaluable modeling for ADHD clients who need to see that accommodations are not a weakness but a strength.

If you’re a therapist or entrepreneur navigating ADHD, remember: relatability fosters accessibility. Embrace your muchness, and don’t be afraid to show up as your authentic self—for your clients and your community.

Lately, I’ve been hearing a really familiar question…
“Why can’t I get anything done?”

It’s often followed by a lot of self-criticism and the quiet assumption that something must be “wrong” with them.

If you’ve been struggling with productivity, motivation, or follow-through while the world feels like it’s on fire, this blog is for you.

I wrote it to explain, through a nervous system lens, why getting things done can feel so hard right now, and anytime there’s a lot happening around us. This is especially true for ADHDers and others who already have executive functioning challenges. What you might be noticing isn’t a personal failure. It’s an understandable nervous system response to overwhelm.

My hope is that this offers a bit of relief, context, and a more compassionate way to make sense of what’s happening, instead of piling on more shame.

Feel free to share it with anyone who might need that reminder too.

If this resonates, I’d love to hear what you’ve noticed about your own productivity or energy lately.

My phone reminded me today that it’s time to prep for a Valentine’s connection activity with my kids that has become a yearly tradition in our house. It’s genuinely low effort, high impact… and it’s been surprisingly meaningful for my children, so I wanted to share it with all of you.

The activity is simple… For each child, I write one thing I love about them on 14 paper hearts and hang one on their door from Feb 1-14. 🩷❤️💜

ADHD children hear way more negative messages about themselves than their neurotypical peers. This activity is one small way to help your child know you see their strengths and value them.

I wrote a blog post with the full step-by-step process, plus ADHD-friendly tips to make it easier for parents to follow through. There’s also a printable instructions linked in the blog that include an idea list of compliments so you can prep this activity right away!

What’s one strength your child has that the world doesn’t always notice?💞
