- Learn how to organize your life (and your ADHD brain) with Lisa K. Woodruff of Organize 365.
Do you walk into a disorganized room and find yourself paralyzed and overwhelmed - unsure where or how to apply order? Do you repeatedly spend time and money on organizing solutions that don’t work? Do you put in constant effort but never feel organized? If you have ADHD and you’ve been struggling with organization, it doesn’t mean there is something wrong with you. It means it is time to start working with your ADHD brain, not against it.

I watched or read part of Marie Kondo's book. She talked about organizing with ease of STORAGE in mind. As a result, I moved my teas, and mugs to the cupboard ABOVE my sink. That way I can reach up, grab a cup, and set it inside the sink to pour water into it. I used to store these things above my counter, which is In a L across from the fridge and sink. Many more steps. Now, the sink functions as a "counter" for the adjacent fridge. There is no small counter between them. This is good for me because my hands can weaken and drop cups.
I appreciate her focus on environmental and design factors in the home which can affect organization for today's lifestyles.
Listening to this as I work. Will print the transcript so I can highlight the tips and make a plan. Thank you!
Where’s the transcript? In their page?
This is extremely helpful material. A bit sad that the presenter said her program in only for women but I gained a lot just from this video thank you!
It’s not only for women, probably women still do the lion’s share in the home and the company is mainly staffed by women, but any of Lisa’s products and systems would work for anyone, she has systems for home and work.
Thank you! In my experience, I feel the biggest preventers of organization have been: feeling one is limited, and fear of the change it will bring. Those are the things I’ve had to zero-in on for lasting success
While this content is wonderful and appreciated… the good folks at ADDitude build these videos in such a way as to suggest that they do not actually understand their target market in terms of how the process videos. One little change could help get these videos to millions… skip the preamble and cut to the chase.😊
Yes please 🙏
Presentation starts at 6:45. 6:45! (ADDitude could really use some ADHD-friendly video tips.)

Thank you
Very nice presentation. Ms. Woodruff provides goods examples and suggestions but also a useful way of thinking about getting organized that can make the job less daunting. Thanks!
This presentation was EXCELLENT!!! So insightful! My one child has ADHD & my other child has ASD. And I think I may have undiagnosed ADHD, as now I am 40 and all of a sudden I can’t function without a pen, a notebook, & a list. The part about the Marie Kondo method, while I love her results… the entire process gives me an enormous amount of anxiety. I almost tried it and quickly backed out because I almost had a meltdown. Instead I did the 15 minute method, except I did it multiple times in a day. I picked 1 area (my desk) and set a timer for 15 minute intervals with 30 minute breaks for the entire day until I was done. And that worked beautifully. Then I was able to move on each day with a new area in my house to work on.
Thank you for the useful great tips and resources. I am a lifelong struggler of organization. After your podcast my life will be moving in a more organized manner!!
Thank you. Excellent presentation.
This is gold! I am so grateful for what you all do. It helps me a lot through my life after diagnosed with ADHD and I think my child might have it as well…
This is the best I've heard so far...
This helped me a lot already and i am already here a second time and it will help me more.
I feel a little bit better that it's taking me "so long" to work on my kitchen. I've been doing the one cabinet at a time and have invested in some pull out shelf organization (the object permanence thing is real). I have found that I actually do like to cook, but if I have to unstack or dig around to find what I need that motivation goes out the window so easy access to pans and tools is paramount. I have also done some major purging which is very freeing. The "paper dragon" is still one of my biggest challenges - I hold on to a lot of paper (because there have been times where it's come in very handy, for contracts or warrantees), but man it gets out of control SO fast.
Single most beneficial webinar
That's gold Jerry! Gold! Haha! Thank you for this!!! Sooooo helpful!!!
50:00 DVDs get me in trouble because I am always saving them and other items to make things out of. So I have realized my "pending" art work needs to be all in one space, bin, closet. I collect items and then the art never happens (so far)....
i love the separate sleeping and playing room.
This talk sounded so good at first, but it's really hard to comprehend the second half if you don't have a traditional American home or exist in that U.S.-centric lifestyle. 😅
Thank you
The bagel with cream cheese being an 18 step process (more or less) is true for me …. Amongst a number of the others, but that’s definitely the hugest weakness… It’s brutal
I liked the part about the different aspects of executive function, but the solutions suggested do NOT work for me. Just make a list for every area in the kitchen, she said. Yeh that alone is SOOO confusing for me! I feel she's trying to apply neurotypical thinking and solutions to ADHD problems. If I could categorise things I would! Also, the Sunday box? LOL we know we'll forget where we put it, forget to put the scattered notes in it, forget to look at it on Sunday, if I do won't be able to decide which of those were "bad ideas", also I don't know if she meant we have to also add our things that we don't want to forget to buy too, for ex.? Confusing
38:00 don't try to do Marie KONDO METHOD. Don't take everything out at once.
Funny that just watched webinar which explained why Eat the frog etc DONT work for adhd
THANK YOU SO MUCH ADDitude! I've been going back to your website once in a while for over a year or 2 now, and this is the first time I've actually chanced upon something that resonates and that gives practical guide for Decluttering!
Thank You Lisa, I've now subscribed to your Organize365 site!💗
20:40 I had to make a canva for that
This video would be great except the length of the video and pace is difficult. I think this is the 4 or 5th time trying to watch this video cause I get bored and distracted even if i take notes to make myself focus on it.
6 minutes 35 seconds of adverts and self promotion before anything useful comes out..
I'd say she made it known how highly she thinks of herself. Lol that's nice that her son went off to College~
