About this episode

The episode discusses the challenges of working memory for ADHD dads, highlighting personal experiences and memory hacks.

Irony at its finest. We sat down to record today’s episode and realized... we completely forgot what the topic was supposed to be. Instead of faking it, we’re leaning into the chaos and talking about the #1 struggle for ADHD dads: Working Memory. Why is it that we can remember a random Fact from a 2004 Pokémon game, but we can’t remember to take the trash out or what we walked into the kitchen for? In this episode of The Dad Voice, we’re breaking down ”The ADHD Void,” why our brains struggle to hold onto short-term information, and the embarrassing memory fails that nearly cost us our sanity. In this episode: The Meta-Fail: How we actually forgot to prep this show. Working Memory 101: Why the ADHD ”RAM” is always at 99% capacity. Memory Hacks: The external systems we use to survive when our internal ones fail. ABOUT THE DAD VOICE PODCAST: You can’t spell ADHD without DAD. We’re here to build a community for neurodivergent fathers who are tired of ”one-size-fits-all” parenting advice. Join us every [Day of Week] for honest conversations on ADHD parenting, marriage, and surviving the chaos. JOIN THE COMMUNITY: 📸 Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thedadvoicepod 👥…
