Mission and vision: Our guiding light
At Embering Stories, our mission is simple:
We want to ignite the creative spark in ADHD moms by embracing the chaos, celebrating their unique journeys, and providing tools, resources, and a community where their creativity can truly shine.
We envision a world where every ADHD mom feels empowered to embrace her beautifully messy mind, discover her untapped creative potential, and connect with others who get it. Embering Stories exists to transform moments of overwhelm into moments of inspiration.
About Me: Meet the Firestarter
Hi, I’m Maria and I Get It.
If ADHD were an Olympic sport, I’d probably win gold... or forget where I put it. As a mom with ADHD, who only got diagnosed recently, I’ve been through the chaos: trying to keep a toddler alive, balancing my creative passions, and figuring out what day it is (because time blindness is REAL).
I found a lot of resources, advice on how to mom when you have ADHD and parenting tips, but I couldn't find a space where ADHD moms like us could celebrate our quirks and thrive creatively without judgment.
So, I created it, and called it Embering Stories.
This community is about us, as creative, chaotic, beautiful ADHD moms. I'm a photographer, graphic designer, and calligrapher who thrives on turning chaos into beauty. But beyond the art, I’m a mom just like you—doing my best to juggle it all and (sometimes) succeeding.
Let’s embrace our beautiful, messy, creative lives together.
Fun fact: My favorite ADHD hack? Writing my to-do list... then immediately losing it.
