Productivity and Home Organization for Moms with ADHD Are you tired of feeling like the only Stay-At-Home mom who can‘t get her act together? You know you have time while the kids are gone - and you feel like you are busy - but you drift from one completely unrelated task to another, focus on things that really don‘t matter, and avoid the tasks that need to get done... Then all of the sudden you realize it is time to grab the kids and you feel that you‘ve accomplished nothing. Welcome Home! This is the Joy Loving Home Podcast. I‘m Joy Ridenour, wife, mom of 4, & unorganized professional organizer! I have a heart for ADHD moms and kids. After spending years learning and organizing for other people I realized that there is a real need to turn the concept of being well planned and organized upside down. It shouldn‘t be created by Type A, naturally organized people as a way to ”fix” you and your home! Organizing, planning & productivity should FIT the way your brain thinks. Albert Einstein said ”Everybody is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid” Well fish, lets quit trying to climb trees while being given tips by monkeys who cannot understand how our brains think. Join me in the water and learn how to swim with the current of your life! It is time to say YES to unorganized organization and flexible productivity! This podcast is for you if: * You feel trapped by rigid schedules and overwhelming to do lists. * You always feel chaotic and like you are pulled in a million directions. * You feel like you are failing to meet expectations and always letting someone down. Truth Bomb: Nothing is wrong with you! Your ADHD brain works differently than the neurotypical brain. We can learn to use the best parts of our brains to our advantage! Life doesn‘t have to be so hard, we just have to take the path less traveled. Let me be your guide. Let‘s have grace in our struggles and encouragement as we strive to make some changes that align with our family first priorities. We can stay intentionally flexible with our plans and learn to navigate life with ADHD while creating space in our lives and our homes for spontaneous joy! Join me as we work to improve our productivity and simplify our homes in new ways, together!

  • 260: Time Traps and Your ADHD Brain: From Wasting to Action
    Mar 19 2026

    Joy, a professional organizer and mom of four, explores why having more time doesn't always lead to productivity—especially for people with ADHD. She explains how the brain interprets free time as an opportunity to rest rather than act, and offers practical, escalating strategies to create real accountability: from hiring help for an hour, to regular cleaners, to professional organizers, or inviting friends and family to create social pressure. Joy also mentions free and paid community options for live body-doubling and support. Her message emphasizes compassion, small steps, and designing systems that work with how your brain actually functions.

  • 259: When Every Room Feels Overwhelming: Where to Start
    Mar 11 2026

    This episode helps you stop overthinking and start decluttering by focusing on one simple goal: less. Joy explains a mindset shift inspired by Alice in Wonderland and introduces the Double Down Dig Out Challenge that uses 20-minute sessions to build momentum.

    She outlines practical steps—two 20-minute timers (maintenance and a 20-item discard goal), free community support, and an optional low-cost membership for added accountability—and encourages listeners to begin anywhere, because every action leads toward less.

Joy is just that, joyful. But not in an annoying way. She is kind and optimistic and takes the shame and guilt out of all those executive functioning skills that we all struggle with, and then beat ourselves up about. I found her podcast one day as I was sitting in a mountain of laundry sobbing and feeling like a failure. She has unique suggestions of “pending” sticky notes in place of our never ending two do lists that are completely unrealistic. She takes the shame out of having “clutter” and does an episode explaining it like suitcases for a trip that was a light bulb/life changing moment for me. It’s the first time I’ve ever felt hopeful about my home, and been able to laugh at my quirks that she also has. Instead of feeling alone, overwhelmed, exhausted, shameful and guilt ridden, I listen to her as I fold laundry and it’s the first time ever, that I’m caught up on laundry.
Can’t wait to convert our playroom that never gets used, into a “toy library”.
She is a genius!

She reminds me of myself especially the way I think through the things. She refers to a few authors that I already follow and enjoy watching or listening to.
Although she refers to other people sometimes, she brings a lot of fresh ideas and twists on others ideas. She is always sure to give credit where credit is due. I'm excited to see where things go in the months to come.

I am an ADHD Mommy, and there are a lot of podcasts for moms of ADHD children, but not a lot for us moms with it. I like this podcast because it deals with the fact our brains are different, that keeping house and taking care of children is going to look different. It’s nice to hear a more experienced mom with ADHD say it’s okay we are all struggling with this. My biggest problem is money and budget, my mind literally does everything it can not to do it. That planning strikes fear into my little ADHD heart! It’s nice to know, while it might not be the same trigger but they have similar triggers. And I don’t feel as terrible about my personal struggle.
