EP453 //Why Traditional Productivity Doesn’t Work for Moms With ADHD (And What Actually Does) With Guest Theresa Harp

Welcome back to The Busy Vibrant Mom podcast! I’m your host, Michelle Byrd and I’m so glad you’re here. Have you ever felt like you’re doing all the things—managing your home, your work, your kids—and yet it still feels hard to stay focused or follow through? Maybe simple tasks feel bigger than they should, or your brain feels like it has a hundred tabs open at once. And you’ve probably wondered… why do typical productivity strategies feel so hard to stick to?

Today’s episode is such an important one, because we’re talking about time management and productivity for women with ADHD—and honestly, so much of this will resonate even if you’ve never been diagnosed. I’m joined by Theresa Harp, a certified productivity coach for women with ADHD, a mom of four, and a business owner who truly understands the challenges of balancing work and motherhood.

We’re diving into why traditional productivity systems often don’t work, how to better understand your brain, and simple, sustainable strategies you can use right away—without burnout. So whether you have ADHD or you’re just a busy mom trying to manage it all, this conversation is going to give you clarity, encouragement, and practical tools. Alright, friend… let’s dive in.
