What’s the best planner for ADHD Moms?
I get asked this question all the time. As if the planner is the magic wand for solving all your disorganization and tardiness problems.
Spoiler Alert: The problem is not the planner.
Buying another notebook, calendar, or planner will not make you organized and feel on top of your day.
If that was the solution, the last 14 planners you bought would have worked. 🧐🧐🧐 IYKYK.
The issue is that you don’t know how to use a planner. You weren’t taught how to use a planner in a way that makes sense for people with ADHD.
So you currently keep track of everything with:
36 different notes in your phone,
2 texts you sent to yourself or your partner,
17 post-it notes scattered about your kitchen counter,
a giant whiteboard calendar in the hall that you haven’t updated in 3 weeks,
your unreliable memory,
and you told your kid to remind you later to order those things off Amazon for the science fair.
You think you’ve got covered until you forget to show up to your preschooler’s Muffins with Moms because that flyer is crumpled under the backseat of your car under 3 stale french fries and an iffy-smelling lunch sack.
Now you AND your kid are both crying. You feel that dark hole of shame and panic taking your breath away because you’re disappointing the people you love most. Again.
“Just use a planner” advice isn’t cutting it.
That is where I, a certified ADHD Coach & Teacher, come in: to help you learn in a way that you understand, for you to feel good about your day, and remember all (ok, almost all) of the stuff you have to keep up with as a mom.
You can totally learn how to keep track of the 3,829 things swirling around your brain right now.
In fact, 200+ moms have already learned how to successfully use a planner and made their lives easier. Now it’s your turn.

I’m Patricia Sung.
I’m sharing with you what has worked for me, and hundreds of other ADHD brains, to bring confidence and skill into how you run your day. As a certified teacher, I have years of experience with thousands of different brains. I know I can show you how to make sense of your day because I can pretty much teach anything to anyone.
How do I know this?
Because I taught ... (gasp!) ... Middle School!
And if I can get 12-year-old ADHD brains to keep up with a planner, I can help you do it, too. You, sweet mama, are not a lost cause! I’m sure of it.
I'm not here just talking the talk; I walk the walk. I have 11 years of experience juggling family and work priorities: I’ve been a working mom, a stay at home mom, a work from home mom, and a mompreneur.
No matter what stage of life you're in, this course will help you create the plan you need to show up on time and for your to do list to be achievable.
After 22 years of navigating my own ADHD, I'm basically the Queen of Organized Disorganization. You don't have to walk in the dark about your own diagnosis (or suspected diagnosis.) There is help out here to guide you and get you on your feet when you're worn out and lost.
Our ADHD affects every single area of our lives. When we treat our ADHD well, we see the benefits in every area - our home, family, work, spouse, friendships, and our little ones. The grace and forgiveness we learn to extend to ourselves shows up in all of our other relationships as well.
Let's figure out how you can live well WITH your ADHD, not in spite of it.

What ADHD mamas are saying about the class:
“This is a tool to learn how to take care of yourself. I feel more confident. And my husband on board with it!”
“I thought, ‘I’m too busy to do this.’ But since you do it at your own pace, then I was still able to get what I needed, which was a lot! So JUST DO IT.”
“I’m using my calendar differently now. This has left a lasting impact for me.”
