Need organization and decluttering tips? Wendy Zanders has tips
for days. She also has ADHD. We don’t usually associate strong
organization skills with ADHD. And yet, Wendy is a decluttering
coach with ADHD. She moved to the United States from Trinidad and
Tobago at 14. At first, she struggled to keep up with her
classes. But then she discovered her secret weapon: hyperfocusing
on cleaning to de-stress and bring focus to her school life.

Today, Wendy is a United States veteran, business owner, and mom
of 2 kids who also have ADHD. When her son was being evaluated,
she recognized her own symptoms in him. Find out how Wendy helps
other families tackle clutter, and how having ADHD brings empathy
to her work.
