I thought I was the only human on earth that organized my dirty dishes. It makes it so much easier to decide what to shove in the dishwasher and what has to be hand washed. I thought I was crazy, but I'm so glad I saw this. Honestly, thank you. You're book is saving my messy life right now.
I organise my dirty dishes too. I don't have a dishwasher and I only have a small draining area, so all my dishes, cups, pots etc. have to go on to the drainer in a certain order to fit everything on. Also, organising them let's me see that there's either not as many dishes to wash as I first thought, or helps me prioritise what things need to be washed first if there are too many for my drainer in one go.
@joannescotland6203 same here, it's easier to fit them in the drainer in a specific order. Plus it allows me to rinse off dirtier dishes just before i change out my water if there are multiple sinkloads, keeping my water cleaner for longer.
@paulawarren9804 ♡ Well, I guess we are allowed to be proud of ourselves for making it till here, knowing how we always struggled 💪 sending good vibes 🌼
I'm 63! If you have executive functioning deficits, NOBODY tells you this stuff. Hopefully, this is getting better. But even looking for help on EF issues hasn't done much for me. KC Davis's stuff might be the first that's actually helping me.
My comment has no relevance to your video whatsoever but, I was really struggling to sleep last night and my worries were spinning in my head. I just needed a comforting person that wasn't expecting the world from me. You were my comforting voice in my head last night. You have allowed me to rest my mind. I cannot remember any of the advice you gave but that's okay. I feel calm and at peace. Thank you for all of the work you have done.
No joke, I just found your book a day ago and I am in tears over how much freedom and HOPE I feel. Thank you for giving me permission to not fold every piece of clothing. Thank you for making things not feel so overwhelming. YOU. ARE. THE. BEST.
Found you in the TED Talks and your ideas grabbed my heart. Thank you for putting this together in a structured way. I realise now, that I use many of your patterns and tipps most of the time - but I never structured or identified them. And when days get dark around me, I tend to loose the grip of them. So thats when you kicked in: naming and defining those very helpful patterns, I found by myself without realizing it. Thank you so much.
I love how you used this video to show the functionality and also reused old content in this context. It works beautifully in this new form and sounds like it would have been less overwhelming for you to make too :) win-win!
Genius. I think this is going to save my life! ADHD typical, I've already shared to FB and messaged to people....haha before I even finish watching it..hahaha ❤️
Just listened to your Ted Talk and commented there: Wow, tears & validation: “This. Hit. Home.😢😌💪🏻 🙏🏻SO grateful I found this TedTalk in the comment section of another video. ❤YOU are a BLESSING! Thank you for sharing your authenticity & vulnerability w/the world. You are impacting so many of us🙏🏻❤️”
About finding the video in the comments of another video... I read comments because of all the stuff I learned from them. The sad thing is, comments are a waste of time
Appreciating you KC!! :) Just listened to your audiobook as well. The only thing that is a total nonissue in my world is the trash part why would one not toss trash out asap? OK, if you don't have kids it shouldn't be a challenge, kids, everything is a challenge, one challenge that I actually don't have are kids, lol. But I do have chronic health challenges, I have small wastebaskets around in each room so trash or recycling isn't an issue. I have small rectangle-shaped baskets (the cute paper woven kind I got at Homegoods in the kids' section) and use them for recycling. Then in my kitchen, I have the large trash bin & a reusable large tote bag (again compliments of TJX stores for 99 cents) to put all my recycling in. When all the small round & rectangular baskets around my condo are full I toss them in the kitchen trash or recycling. This way I toss them somewhere immediately each time. I must have 10-12 trash/recycle total on all 3 floors. I also have many repeat items so I don't have to chase things down like scissors, scotch tape, stapler, etc., I know I'm undiagnosed ADHD but as a former psychotherapist I don't need the formal eval to know now in midlife holy crap it's really bad now, so anyone with it, just wait til' your 50s! Yikes!
Yes young people reading this... Help your future self by getting it under control now. When I was younger, I thought it's not a big deal I know where everything is. Now everything is out of control.. I have chronic pain and no energy to do anything.
I just finished your book on audible. I am likely atistic, my husband and ADHD and my 3 kids under 5 are all atistic. The things you say and suggestions you give are grate. It gives me hope that I won't have to call my mother in law to come help power clean my house every other week so that the kids worker can come over.
This is great, thank you so much ❤ Couple of things I started to do without realising it is my way of keeping up. 1.Empty dish dryer 2. Put dirty dishes I have in a bowl into the sink 3. Wash those dishes (if it seems too overwhelming wash only a fix number of dishes) 4. Walk around the flat with the bowl and collect dirty dishes. This way I don't get the daunting view of a full and dirty sink-things are in constant rotation even if I skip days/weeks the sink is still empty/ sort of empty. The other thing is rubbish. 1. Bin is full 2. Empty bin 3. Get new bin bag 4. Walk around with new bin bag and collect rubbish around the house 5. Put the half full bin bag into the bin. Again things are in rotation- don't need to deal with an overflowing bin with month's old rubbish and juice at the bottom. No idea why this helps me but it does 😂
KC I really enjoyed your book ❤ I have not heard anyone mention compassion and care for yourself when things are overwhelming. Easy read and great tips and seriously if you have really young kids just expect mess I had more patience when mine were younger & they did help tidy up but when they got older the frustration is they can actually help but make out like one task you ask is you telling them to clean the whole house 😂😂
Hi. I am so excited to have this channel as another way to enjoy your content. I have your book in ebook and audiobook(I've already listened to it twice!) I'm trying to get your workbook and physical copy of your book next. THANK YOU, thank you, thank you!
Hi KC, I have been listening to your podcast and following you for a while and I had a question. I'm 34, recently diagnosed ADHD, coming out as non binary and bi and finding out I'm autistic all at once, parenting littles etc. I really want to share my journey on tiktok about the steps I am taking to consciously unmask in a joyous way that gives me so much more space for my own emotional regulation. To encourage others to fight that fear and build space for themselves anyway they can. but I'm just having such a fear and rejection dysphoria about getting started and I wanted to ask how you started on tiktok and got that initial courage. Thank you
They’re sold out 😢 would you ever consider selling a kit? Rather than magnets, stickers? I’d love to buy but concerned about shipping cost as I’m in Aus
Where is the best way to view your content? I see your not active on TH-cam. But I’m avoiding Facebook, insta, and TikTok rn because they’re huge time sucks for me.
I came across your Ted talk, and now your channel. I wish I had found you sooner struggling with adrenal fatigue. Do you know when your reset for it will come back in stock?
How do you know if you have adrenal fatigue vs fibromyalgia? All my doctors do is give me a blood test to see if I have thyroid issues, diagnosed me with fibromyalgia, and give up.
Hi KC! I love your content and I've sent your Ted talk to so many people. It really changed my life to see care tasks as functional, not moral. I was wondering if it would be possible for you to start uploading your tik toks to TH-cam shorts? I deleted tiktok because it was just too much of a distraction to me. I know that's probably a huge amount of work, so maybe someone you trust with your login could volunteer to help, or if it's financially feasible maybe you could hire an assistant or a social media manager to help. I'm sure people ask you this a lot, so I also want to say, you're doing a lot already and if TH-cam shorts aren't in the cards, that's okay! You're still making a huge difference for people and your work matters. Thank you so much for your vulnerability and your willingness to help others.
@@kcdavis1994 Where does the sheet live? I mean, obviously it can be stuck on the fridge with one of those magnets. My fridge is kind of a junk drawer of useful things I want to keep accessible. 🤦🏻♀️

Did you ever get started? I am concerned if I talk about these topics it could come back to bite me in the future.
Why does TH-cam only allow me to Like this once?!? 😭 Omg thank you SO MUCH!!!
Would love to actually have the link to the product in the description =)
You are awesome and great job ❤😊
Where can I get one?
It would be good if you had a link in your video to click on to buy it. I don't know where to go to get it.
Appreciate you!
They’re sold out 😢 would you ever consider selling a kit? Rather than magnets, stickers? I’d love to buy but concerned about shipping cost as I’m in Aus
Can you write on the magnet itself or will you provide blank “clings?”
I don't see how this method works if you don't have room to make piles. Or if it would take you multiple days to do each step.
Where is the best way to view your content? I see your not active on TH-cam. But I’m avoiding Facebook, insta, and TikTok rn because they’re huge time sucks for me.
KC where do we get these boards and stickers. I need these NOW!!!
Yes please do tell!!!
Kimberley ... i found them ... $49.99 😳
@BriannaB Omg. Converted in NZ dollars at is ALOT. please do forward the link anyway... I've save up!! hahaha

This is how I do it too!
Oh yay, you made it!
Do uou have any habit tracker apps that you can recommend ala atomic habits
Can you buy this tool?
How ccan I get these boards?

Ok, but where do your unused stickers and magnets go between different resets?
The magnets can stick to the fridge and you can put the clings back on the sheet they came on.

@@hollyscottlaukkonen8280 I keep mine on the fridge 🤷🏻♀️
Err am I missing the part where she links where I can buy these magnets for myself for Xmas 😂
Lol. You can get them at www.strugglecare.com/shop but I’m afraid they won’t ship in time for Christmas.
I’m getting high anxiety watching this
Adhd is exhausting & expensive
Why did you stop posting people need you! 🥴
Why are you on TicTok calling people terrorists what kind of person are you
Uhm... i hope you're not making money off people buying these boards.
