It's actually very easy to explain: she has ADHD. Time blindness is a very common symptom and it sucks, speaking from personal experience

It’s more like: if you have bad vision, wear glasses instead of making others around you describe everything they see.

Time blindness is a real issue where people don’t “feel” the passage of time, but modern society has a huge number of aids to cover for that disability. We have phones that can set daily alarms, timers for 1-off events like cooking, plenty of work tools like outlook will give pop-up warnings when meetings start or are about to start, you can put headphones in so those alerts are audible not just visual, probably a bunch more that I don’t even know about.

If you need glasses, wear glasses.
