I'm so glad you're here.
I'm Dr. Margot Holloman. Psychologist. Parent coach. Mom. All kinds of animals lover. And someone whose own ADHD brain has humbled her more times than she'd like to count.
I've spent 25 years working with moms navigating ADHD, their own, their kids', or both at once. And the thing I keep seeing, over and over, is this:
The moms who struggle most aren't the ones who don't care enough. They're the ones who care deeply and feel completely unsupported.
That's why this community exists.
ADHD Moms in Bloom is for:
🌸 Moms with ADHD who are trying to parent consistently when their own brain has other plans
🌸 Moms of kids with ADHD who are exhausted from strategies that work for everyone else but somehow not for their family
🌸 Double-ADHD households where the mornings are loud, the guilt is real, and "just try harder" stopped being helpful a long time ago
If any of that sounds familiar — you're in the right place.
Here's how this community actually works:
This isn't just a place to scroll. It's a place to show up, even on the messy days. Especially on the messy days.
🌅 Morning Check-Ins — Every day, we check in together. Did you get out the door? Did it go sideways? Either way, you post about it. It takes 30 seconds. Other moms are doing the same thing at the same time, that's called body doubling, and for ADHD brains, it works better than any planner you've ever bought and abandoned.
🎉 Wins & Celebrations— We notice what's going RIGHT. In a "I didn't yell during the shoe crisis, and I want someone to know" way. Small wins count. Actually, small wins are the whole point.
💬 General Chat— Ask questions. Vent about the school email that just ruined your afternoon. Share something that worked. This is your space for honest conversations without judgment.
Plus: regular Q&As where you can ask the questions you've been carrying around, live events and workshops, and resources you can actually use.
What we DON'T do here:
We don't shame spiral together. We've all been there, but this space is about moving forward, not sinking deeper.
We don't give medical advice. I'm a psychologist, not your doctor. We talk strategies, systems, and support — not diagnoses or medication recommendations. Remember this is NOT therapy.
But we don't pretend everything is fine. If mornings are hard, we say mornings are hard. Then we figure out what to try next.
Ready to jump in? Here are two ways to start:
👋 Option 1: Introduce yourself.Head to 💬 General Chat and tell us your name, where you're from, and who brought you here, is it your ADHD, your child's, or are you a double-ADHD household? Bonus: Tell us one thing you're hoping to find in this community.
🌅 **Option 2: Post your first Morning Check-In.** Tomorrow morning — or right now if it's morning — go to 🌅 Morning Check-In and tell us how it went. Even if "how it went" is "we were 20 minutes late, and someone cried." That counts. You showed up.
Not ready to post yet? That's completely fine. Read. Lurk. Watch other moms check in for a few days. When you're ready, we'll be here. No pressure. No timeline.
One more thing.
You're here because you care deeply and you're looking for support that actually fits the way your brain works.
There are no wrong answers here. This is a no-shame zone from the very first post.
Welcome to Bloom. 🌱
