Surviving the Mental Load of the School Year

$10.00

If your brain is already full before school drop-off — this kit is for you.

Managing the school year isn’t just about forms, lunchboxes and sports days. It’s about carrying 73 invisible tasks in your head while still remembering the library bag, the shoes, and what week it is. This guide helps you name the mental load, reduce it, and put systems in place that support you — not just the school calendar.

It’s not another to-do list. It’s a survival map for ADHD mums navigating a neurotypical system with no margin for error.

This kit was made for:

  • You’re constantly forgetting something but don’t know where to start

  • You’ve got a million tabs open and a kid who needs more support than the school provides

  • You do all the prep and still feel behind

  • You’re tired of being the default parent, calendar, and crisis manager

  • You want to reclaim your time, your sanity, and your mornings (even a little)

BTW: Purchasing this kit helps support the ADHD Mums Podcast! Every episode takes time, energy, and behind-the-scenes work. This kit helps cover those costs.’
