In this episode of the Energy + Hours, Jill Wright sits down with Amy Marie Hann, creator of Master the Mundane, to talk about the realities of managing life, home, routines, motherhood, and mental load as women with ADHD. Amy shares her experience of realizing her ADHD didn’t magically disappear outside of school and work, and how years of masking, burnout, and trying to force neurotypical systems eventually pushed her to create more supportive ways of living. Together, Jill and Amy unpack why so many moms with ADHD struggle with consistency, household management, overwhelm, shame, and unrealistic expectations, especially in seasons of motherhood where the demands never stop. This conversation is practical, validating, and deeply relatable for anyone trying to manage time, energy, routines, and family life with a neurodivergent brain. In this episode, Jill and Amy talk about: Why becoming a stay-at-home mom can actually intensify ADHD struggles The hidden mental load carried by moms with ADHD Why urgency becomes a coping mechanism for ADHD brains The difference between neurotypical productivity advice and ADHD-friendly systems Masking, burnout, and the pressure to “keep up” How shame keeps many women stuck in cycles of overwhelm Building routines that work with your brain instead of against it Why small, sustainable changes work better than trying to overhaul your life overnight ADHD, perimenopause, motherhood, and overstimulation The importance of community and support for neurodivergent moms Creating systems for home and family management that are realistic and flexible Amy also shares insights from her Master the Mundane community, her course on mastering mornings and evenings, and her approach to helping ADHD moms create more ease in everyday life without perfectionism or guilt.  About the Guest Amy is the creator of Master the Mundane, a unique online course + community that empowers moms with ADHD to manage their home and family in a way that works for their brain.  Amy was diagnosed with ADHD at the age of 5 and her three kids, husband, dad, and sister are also ADHD.

In this episode of Energy + Hours, Jill sits down with Laura Vanderkam to talk about her new book Big Time and the idea that time is far more abundant than we’ve been taught to believe. This conversation shifts the focus away from control and toward agency. Time is not something working against you. It is something you are actively shaping, whether you realize it or not. They explore what it looks like to move from feeling behind and overwhelmed to building a life that feels spacious, intentional, and aligned. Not by doing more, but by seeing your time differently and using it with more clarity. What You’ll Learn Why the idea that “there’s never enough time” keeps people stuck How to shift into a time abundance mindset in real life Practical ways to audit your schedule and find hidden discretionary time How weekly planning reduces mental load and decision fatigue A simple structure for balancing career, relationships, and self How to stop wishing time away and start experiencing it more fully What “golden hours” are and how to actually use them Why small, intentional planning creates more freedom than rigid systems Key Takeaways This episode brings time management back to what it was always meant to be: a tool. Not a rigid system. Not a source of pressure. A way to create a life that actually feels good to live. Time is big enough to hold long-term growth, change, and meaningful work. You have more agency than you think over your daily experience of time, and this conversation will help you start using it. About the Guest Laura Vanderkam is a bestselling author and time management expert known for her research on how people spend their time. Her latest book, Big Time, explores how shifting into a mindset of time abundance can transform how we work, live, and experience our days.

    Stop Doing It All and Ask for Help

    👉 For more support with weekly planning, ⁠grab your copy of the Time Magic Seasonal Planner!⁠ 👉Join us inside ⁠the Momentum Membership⁠⁠! You're carrying the weight alone because somewhere you learned that asking is selfish or weak. It's not. It's the most efficient way to reclaim your time and energy. I learned this lesson fresh watching my six-year-old daughter knock on neighbours' doors selling Girl Guide cookies. There was no apology in her ask, no concern about burdening people, no second-guessing. She showed up, stated what she needed, and moved on. Adults have forgotten how to do this, especially women. We're tangled up in people-pleasing, perfectionism, and the constant hum of cultural messaging that tells us we need to handle everything ourselves. The thing is, asking for what you want and need is one of the fastest ways to shift your energy. Not just in a day, but across your entire life. Time back, less resentment, better boundaries, actual rest. In this episode, we get into: Why people-pleasing and perfectionism keep you from asking (and how your neurodiversity might actually be your superpower here) The exact 3-step framework to make the ask: identify what you want, figure out what you need to get there, and ask for the helpHow to handle rejection without it derailing the whole thing (spoiler: even a "no" is better than not asking)The art of showing up and seeing what happens when you let people respond authenticallyWhy your discomfort with asking is just being out of practice, and how to build the habit starting smallReal-life examples of what asking sounds like so it doesn't feel awkward or sleazy Resources Take the Time Magic Quiz: ⁠⁠https://jillwright.ca/quiz ⁠⁠ Download the Free ADHD Time Tips: ⁠⁠https://jillwright.ca/adhd-tips⁠⁠ Join the Momentum Membership: Weekly planning, accountability, and co-working for nonlinear entrepreneurs ⁠⁠https://www.jillwright.ca/mometum-membership ⁠⁠ Get the Time Magic™ Planner: A 90-day seasonal planner designed for ADHD and intuitive brains ⁠⁠https://www.jillwright.ca/planner ⁠ About Jill Wright Jill Wright is a Time Management Expert, author, and award-winning speaker who helps ambitious women, moms, and entrepreneurs manage time and energy in a way that feels aligned, flexible, and sustainable.

    Success Doesn't Fix Burnout

    👉 For more support with weekly planning, ⁠grab your copy of the Time Magic Seasonal Planner!⁠ 👉 Join us inside ⁠the Momentum Membership⁠⁠! ******* You can build a successful business and still feel stretched, frustrated, and stuck in it. This conversation looks at what’s actually happening behind that disconnect. When things are working on paper but not in your day-to-day, it’s usually not a time problem. It’s a leadership gap that no one taught you how to close. Lauren and I talk about the shift from doing everything yourself to actually leading your business. The part where delegation feels messy, systems don’t hold, and you’re still carrying more than you should even with support in place. In this episode, we get into: • why success can still feel heavy and unsustainable • what’s really happening when delegation isn’t working • the difference between productivity and leadership in business • how to step into the CEO role without overcomplicating it • the hidden expectations you’re not communicating to your team • where operations and time management actually overlap About Lauren Glynn Lauren Glynn is a leadership and operations coach who works with business owners stepping into the CEO role. Her work focuses on the intersection of systems, delegation, and leadership. She helps entrepreneurs build businesses that don’t rely on them holding everything together.

    How Numerology Helps You Align With Your Timing

    Why your old productivity strategies stop working in your 30s and 40s and what to use instead This episode is a conversation about why the systems that used to work suddenly stop fitting your life and what it actually takes to realign your time with who you are now. I’m joined by numerologist and podcaster Nat Olson, and we get into the deeper patterns behind burnout, identity shifts, and that quiet feeling that something needs to change even when everything looks “fine” on paper. We talk about the role of conditioning, how social noise pulls you away from your natural rhythm, and why understanding your own wiring can change how you make decisions, plan your time, and show up in your work. In this episode, we get into: • Why productivity tools can stop working during seasons like motherhood, career shifts, and perimenopause • How numerology can highlight your natural strengths, needs, and patterns • The impact of conditioning and social media on your decision-making • What it actually looks like to advocate for your inner nature in real life and business • Why clarity alone isn’t enough without action and self-trust About Nat Olson Nat Olson is a Spiritual Coach and Numerologist who helps soulful entrepreneurs and leaders unlock what makes them magnetic… so they can expand their income, impact, and joy.  Through her signature blend of Numerology, mindset work, and spiritual coaching, she helps clients reconnect with their true design and step into the body of work they were born to lead.

  8. Is Self-Care Stressing You Out?

    12 MAR

    Is Self-Care Stressing You Out?

    Many parents feel like they are constantly reacting to their child’s behaviour while running on empty themselves. In this conversation, I sit down with Danielle C. Baker to talk about what actually helps when parenting feels overwhelming, especially when neurodivergent kids are part of the picture. Danielle has a fascinating background that started in physics, moved into early childhood education, and eventually led her to working directly with families who are struggling, exhausted, and trying to support kids with complex needs. A big theme in this episode is something I talk about often on Energy + Hours: parents cannot pour from an empty cup. When we are dysregulated, exhausted, and stuck in survival mode, it becomes much harder to show up as the parent we want to be. Danielle works directly with parents of neurodivergent children and shares what she sees every day. Families trying their best. Kids who need support. Parents who are carrying far more than anyone realizes. We talk about practical ways to shift the focus from constant correction and crisis management toward noticing micro wins, building connection, and creating moments that actually strengthen the parent child relationship. We also talk about the pressure parents put on themselves to “do self care properly,” and why that often backfires. This is a grounded conversation about real parenting, real stress, and the small shifts that can make family life feel a little more manageable. In this episode we talk about:• Why so many parents of neurodivergent kids feel stuck in survival mode • What Danielle learned after nearly two decades working in childcare • The hidden impact of constant stress on parents and families • How focusing only on problems changes the way we see our kids • The power of noticing micro wins in everyday parenting• Why traditional self care advice often adds more pressure for parents • How small moments of connection can change the tone of a whole day • Using “time confetti” moments to reconnect with your child About Danielle C. Baker Danielle C. Baker works with parents, educators, and professionals to support children’s development and family wellbeing. With a background in physics and early childhood education, her work focuses on helping parents better understand their children, particularly neurodivergent kids, while also supporting the wellbeing of the parents themselves. Her approach blends child development, practical parenting tools, and a deep understanding of the pressures families face today.
