The Powerful Women Rising PODCAST

In this episode, the host converses with Melissa Snow, an ADHD entrepreneur who has transitioned from teaching high school to corporate work, and ultimately to entrepreneurship. Melissa shares her journey of becoming a business owner, starting with an unexpected opportunity in creating medical records summaries for personal injury attorneys, and later evolving into a successful relationship and dating coach. Now, she runs 'Powerful Women Rising,' a platform supporting female entrepreneurs through authentic connections and networking. Diagnosed with ADHD just two years ago, Melissa talks about her experiences, including the common misconception of being 'lazy,' and the importance of working with one's brain rather than against it. She offers practical advice on how she stays organized, manages her business, and the value of having external support. The discussion also delves into the importance of networking in building a business, especially for introverts and those who find it challenging. Listeners are invited to join Melissa's networking events and learn more about organizing an ADHD brain.

In this episode, I’m sharing what it’s really been like preparing for one of the biggest transitions of my life—selling our home, letting go of most of our belongings, and getting ready for a full-on summer adventure with my family.

But here's the thing... I’m not trying to become a minimalist.
I like my stuff. I love color, creativity, and having spaces that feel like me.
And for so many of us with ADHD, minimalism can feel more like diet culture for your house—shame-filled, all-or-nothing, and totally unrealistic.

I talk about what it means to declutter intentionally without trying to erase yourself in the process. You’ll hear about how my relationship with "stuff" has evolved, how I’ve learned to trust myself in what I keep (and what I don’t), and how I’ve stopped buying things hoping they’ll one day “fit in” somewhere.

Instead, I'm focusing on buying and keeping things that have a purpose—things that support the version of me I’m becoming.

Whether you’re drowning in decisions or just starting to think about making a change, I hope this episode helps you feel seen, supported, and less alone.

And if you’re craving a place to untangle all of this alongside others who truly get it—I’d love for you to join my ADHD-friendly community. We’re all about progress over perfection, small wins, and creating homes that feel like peace.
