  • ADHD & Manifestation: Small Daily Habits That Create Big Results 

    Manifestation isn’t just about thinking positive thoughts—it’s about creating habits that align with what you want. But if you’re an ADHD mom, the idea of sticking to a rigid routine can feel overwhelming. The good news? You don’t need a perfect morning routine or hours of journaling to attract what you desire. Instead, small, consistent actions can make manifestation feel effortless and achievable—even with ADHD. 

    Here’s how to turn your manifestation goals into bite-sized, ADHD-friendly daily habits that bring big results. 

    💡 Why ADHD Moms Struggle with Manifestation (And How to Fix It!) 

    If you’ve ever felt frustrated with manifestation because you: 
    ❌ Struggle with consistency 
    ❌ Lose motivation after an initial burst of excitement 
    ❌ Feel overwhelmed by all the things you “should” be doing (journaling, meditating, vision boards, etc.) 

    Then you’re not alone. The key isn’t doing more—it’s simplifying the process so it works with your ADHD brain, not against it. 

    📝 Bonus ADHD Trick : Tie your affirmation to an item, like a bracelet or a ring. It’ll serve as a gentle reminder throughout the day. 

    🌟 5 ADHD-Friendly Daily Manifestation Habits 

    1️⃣ 5-Minute Visualization (Without Sitting Still for Too Long!) 

    Forget trying to meditate in silence for 20 minutes—your brain thrives on movement. 
    ✅ Instead: Pair visualization with an activity you’re already doing! 

    • Walking? Imagine the life you’re manifesting while moving. 
    • Showering? Picture yourself achieving your dream goals. 
    • Doing dishes? Repeat simple affirmations in your head. 

    📝 Bonus ADHD Trick: Set a 5-minute timer and let your mind wander through your ideal future. No pressure, just daydreaming! 

    2️⃣ Sticky Note Manifestation (A.K.A. The ADHD Vision Board Hack) 

    Instead of making a vision board and forgetting about it, keep manifestation reminders where you’ll actually see them. 
    ✅ How to do it: 

    • Write your top 1-2 goals on sticky notes. 
    • Place them on your mirror, fridge, or laptop. 
    • Change them every week to keep your brain engaged. 

    📝 Example: If you’re manifesting a calmer home, write: “I create peaceful spaces with ease.” Every time you see it, your brain reinforces the belief. 

    3️⃣ Make Your To-Do List a Manifestation List 

    ADHD brains love immediate results, and crossing things off a list can be satisfying. 
    ✅ Instead of a traditional to-do list, make a “manifestation action list.” 

    ✅ Shift your mindset (from “I have to do this” → to “I am creating the life I want”) 
    ✅ Stay motivated (words matter—writing tasks as if they’re already happening reinforces positive energy) 
    Here’s how to turn everyday tasks into manifestation-driven actions: 

    • List small, doable steps that align with what you’re calling in. 
    • Keep it short (3-5 tasks max!) to avoid overwhelm. 

    Instead of: ❌ “Clean the house.” 

    ✔ “I am creating a cozy, joyful home by resetting one room.” (Tidying up one room instead of the whole house) 
    ✔ “I am bringing in abundance by keeping my home fresh and inviting.” (Doing dishes/laundry without feeling like it’s a burden) 

    Instead of: ❌ “Get everyone out the door without losing my patience.” 
    ✔ “I am creating a fun and connected morning routine with my kids.” (Instead of rushing, focus on one small positive interaction—playing music, giving extra hugs, etc.) 

    Instead of: ❌ “Take a break.” 
    ✔ “I am nourishing my body with movement today.” (5-minute stretch, dance, or walk.) 
    ✔ “I am giving myself permission to rest.” (Taking a 10-minute break without guilt.) 

    4️⃣ Decluttering = Manifestation in Action 

    Clearing physical clutter creates mental clarity, which makes it easier to focus on what you want. 
    ✅ Tiny ADHD-friendly decluttering habits: 

    • 1-Minute Rule: If it takes less than 1 minute, do it now. 
    • One-Shelf Method: Instead of tackling the whole kitchen, just declutter one shelf today. 
    • 5-Item Rule: Each day, put away or donate 5 things that no longer serve you. 

    📝 Why This Works: If you’re manifesting a calm, stress-free home, this action aligns your space with that energy—without overwhelm. 

    5️⃣ Habit Stacking for Effortless Manifestation 

    Habit stacking = attaching a new habit to something you already do. This helps ADHD brains remember without forcing structure! 
    ✅ How to do it: 

    • While brushing your teeth → Say one gratitude affirmation (ex: “I am grateful for the abundance flowing to me.”
    • While drinking coffee → Write down one “win” from yesterday (small wins count! I turned off the tv and lights downstairs before bed) 
    • While getting dressed → Listen to an inspiring podcast or song that aligns with your goals. 

    📝 Example: If you’re manifesting more confidence, you might say: 
    “I am becoming more confident every day.” while putting on your shoes. 

    💫 The Secret to ADHD Manifestation? Progress Over Perfection 

    Manifestation isn’t about being perfect—it’s about consistently showing up in small ways

    ✅ Pick ONE of these habits and start today. 
    ✅ Keep it simple and fun—no pressure! 
    ✅ Celebrate small wins (because ADHD brains thrive on instant gratification).

  • Manifesting Without the Overwhelm: How to Attract What You Want (Without Feeling Like You’re Always Chasing It)

    Love, do you ever feel like you’re constantly wishing for more?

    A new car that doesn’t come with mystery noises.
    A home with just one more bathroom.
    A puppy that somehow trains itself.

    It’s easy to get caught up in longing for things we don’t have yet, but what if the secret to getting what you want faster is shifting how you want it?

    Instead of wanting from a place of lack (the ugh, why don’t I have this yet? feeling), let’s flip the script.

    Let’s talk about wanting from a place of already having—a mindset shift that makes manifestation feel less like a struggle and more like a natural part of your life.

    💡 What Does “Wanting from a Place of Already Having” Even Mean?

    It means believing your desires are already on their way to you.

    Instead of feeling stuck in “I need this to be happy,” you start thinking, “I know it’s coming.”

    It’s the difference between chasing something in frustration versus letting it flow to you because you’re already in an abundant state of mind.

    ✨ Gratitude: The Secret Ingredient

    Gratitude is the easiest way to shift from lack to abundance.

    Try this: Instead of focusing on what’s missing, take a moment to recognize what’s already good:

    ✔ My kids are safe and healthy.
    ✔ Dinner made it to the table (even if it was cereal).
    ✔ My home is cozy (even if the laundry pile is winning).
    ✔ My car isn’t fancy, but it gets me where I need to go.

    When you focus on what’s already working, you naturally attract more of it.

    👀 Visualizing with Gratitude

    Manifestation isn’t just about wishing—it’s about feeling like it’s already happening.

    💭 Close your eyes and picture yourself already living your dream.
    😌 Feel the joy, relief, or excitement as if it’s happening right now.
    🙌 Say “thank you” for it as if it’s already yours.

    This tiny shift makes all the difference.

    📝 Set Intentions with Gratitude

    Instead of saying, “I want more money,” try:

    💰 “I’m so grateful that more money is flowing into my life.”

    Instead of, “I want more time for myself,” say:

    🕰 “I’m thankful that I’m creating space for rest and joy.”

    Words matter—speak as if it’s already happening!

    🚀 Taking Action (Without Overthinking It)

    Manifestation isn’t just about mindset—it’s also about doing the thing when the opportunity comes.

    ⚡ Notice those little nudges (the idea, the invite, the random inspiration).
    ⚡ Take small, doable steps (not the overwhelming, all-or-nothing kind).
    ⚡ Trust that each step is bringing you closer.

    🏖 Letting Go of the “How”

    This might be the hardest part—releasing control of how and when things happen.

    You don’t have to force it. You don’t have to obsess over it.

    Just like you wouldn’t dig up a planted seed every day to check if it’s growing—trust that what’s meant for you is unfolding exactly as it should.

    Hold the vision, trust the process.

    💖 Final Thoughts

    When you want something from a place of already having, life feels lighter. You’re not chasing—you’re attracting.

    So today, love, try this:
    📌 Find gratitude for right now.
    📌 Speak as if what you want is already yours.
    📌 Take little steps when they show up.
    📌 Trust that what’s meant for you is coming.

    Because it is. 💕

  • Overwhelmed but Dreaming Big? Manifestation for SAHMs with ADHD

    Overwhelmed but Dreaming Big? Manifestation for SAHMs with ADHD

    Manifestation 101: What It Is, How It Works, and What It Isn’t

    Manifestation has become a buzzword in self-improvement and personal growth circles, but what does it really mean? Is it simply about wishing for something and having it magically appear, or is there more to the practice?

    Let’s break it down and explore what manifestation is, how it works, its historical roots, and what it definitely is not—especially for stay-at-home moms (SAHMs) with ADHD who are juggling chaotic schedules, mental overload, and big dreams.

    What Is Manifestation?

    At its core, manifestation is the process of bringing something into your life through belief and intention. As an ADHD mom, my first thought is, Great! I can totally imagine really cool ideas for my life—let’s do it! But the key that I need to emphasize is that you have to pair these ideas with aligned action.

    Manifestation isn’t just about daydreaming; it’s about channeling your thoughts, emotions, and energy into making those dreams a reality. By focusing on positive outcomes and maintaining an open mindset, you can take actionable steps to attract experiences, opportunities, and even material things into your life—even with the daily whirlwind of mom life.

    How Does Manifestation Work?

    Manifestation works through a combination of mindset shifts, energetic alignment, and practical action. Here’s a simple breakdown of the process:

    1. Clarity & Intention – Clearly define what you want. Be specific and ensure your desire aligns with your values. Need a place to start? Check out my values workshop, where you identify your core values. This helps cut through the mental clutter and focus on what truly matters.
    2. Visualization – Picture yourself already achieving your goal. Engage all your senses and truly feel the emotions of accomplishment—the joy, the pride, the relief. Close your eyes and imagine the scene like it’s already happening.
    3. Belief & Mindset – Believe that your goal is possible. Overcome limiting beliefs that may create resistance. It’s okay if doubt creeps in—just don’t let it take over.
    4. Aligned Action – Manifestation isn’t just about thoughts; it requires action. Take small, manageable steps that move you closer to your goal. It’s a marathon, not a sprint. Keep moving forward at your pace.
    5. Gratitude & Trust – Practice gratitude for what you already have and trust in the process, even when results aren’t happening right away. Trust me, consistency (even in small doses) will change everything.

    A Brief History of Manifestation

    The concept of manifestation isn’t new. It has deep roots in spiritual traditions and philosophies:

    • The Law of Attraction – Popularized by books like The Secret, this idea suggests that when you focus on the good, the good grows; positive thinking leads to positive results.
    • Ancient Wisdom – Hinduism, Buddhism, and Hermetic teachings emphasize the power of thought, intention, and vibration in shaping reality. I haven’t studied these religions in-depth, but I have come across their teachings.
      Taking a yoga class was my first time experiencing a calm, quiet mind, which led me to embracing meditation. I don’t make a religious connection with these practices, but I can recognize that they are ancient techniques passed down through generations.
    • Quantum Physics Perspective – Some theories suggest that our thoughts and energy can influence the world around us at a subatomic level, reinforcing the idea that mindset plays a role in outcomes.

    What Manifestation Is Not

    While manifestation is powerful, there are several misconceptions about it:

    • It’s Not Just Wishing and Waiting – Manifestation requires action, not just wishful thinking. Once I started organizing my thoughts, I was able to create this beautiful website. It took years of small steps and refining my vision.
    • It’s Not a Shortcut to Success – Hard work, persistence, and strategy still matter. With ADHD, I only occasionally feel inspired—usually at late hours of the night. I started organizing my ideas in a text document on my phone, and as time went on, I molded it and shaped it into the site you’re exploring right now.
    • It’s Not About Ignoring Reality – It’s about shifting perspective and taking control, not denying challenges. We all have greatness inside of us. You can change your life and your reality. You hold the power—even on days when the laundry piles are sky-high, and your to-do list feels impossible.
    • It’s Not “Magic” – It’s a blend of psychology, neuroscience, and energy principles rather than a mystical force. You have an inner warrior. Speak to her. Nurture her. Unleash her.

    Final Thoughts

    Manifestation is a powerful tool when used correctly. It’s about creating clarity, aligning with your desires, and taking real-world steps toward your goals. Whether you’re looking to improve your mindset, attract new opportunities, or simply cultivate more gratitude in your life, manifestation can help you tap into your potential—even in the midst of motherhood chaos.
