What's actually hard
- •Transitioning from high-intensity crisis support to tedious record-keeping and visit logs
- •Paralysis caused by unstructured on-call hours and open-ended pastoral responsibilities
- •Postponing heavy administrative follow-ups until minor tasks snowball into immense stress

- Run a 2-minute sprint to generate a basic outline for an upcoming service or reflection
- Draft a gentle follow-up email to a care seeker without getting bogged down in perfectionism
Break the freeze at your desk
Spark helps ADHD chaplains bridge the gap between profound pastoral care and necessary administrative duties. It transforms daunting paperwork into micro-steps so you can focus on supporting your community. 2-minute first moves, on your phone, no planning required.
Transition between tasks with a short ritual: close the previous task, take a 2-minute movement break, and name the next first step. The ritual gives the brain a bridge between two different mental states. Without it, the previous task lingers and the next one never starts.
Batch all admin into one recurring 30-minute 'admin hour' with music, a timer and a visible list — never spread it across the week. Admin resists ADHD brains because it offers no dopamine, so the structure has to supply what the task doesn't.
Finch grows a pet through self-care. Spark cracks a stuck task into a 2-minute step. Compare which one your ADHD brain needs.
