ADHD Parenting & Mental Load: How to Create Less Chaos Without Burning Out (with Amy Briggs of Av...

If you’re an ADHD parent who feels constantly overwhelmed — even on days when “nothing big” happens — this episode is for you. In this New Year, Less Chaos conversation, Danielle sits down with Amy Briggs, a speech-language pathologist turned tech founder, to talk about the invisible weight parents carry every single day: the mental load. Amy shares what she saw firsthand while working with families — parents drowning in schedules, emails, school portals, and unspoken responsibilities — and why traditional organization advice fails neurodivergent families. That insight led her to create Aviva, an app designed to reduce cognitive overload instead of adding another thing to manage. In this episode, we talk about: • What mental load actually is — and why ADHD parents feel it more intensely • Why “just get organized” doesn’t work for neurodivergent brains • How parental overwhelm impacts kids’ emotional regulation and development • What real support systems look like (hint: not more planners) • How to create less chaos without chasing perfection or burning out This episode isn’t about becoming a better parent.  It’s about building systems that hold you when your brain is already maxed out. 🎧 Perfect for ADHD moms, neurodivergent parents, and anyone craving less chaos and more capacity this year.
