159: Does your ADHD kid tell you what they're doing INSTEAD of doing what you just asked!?!?!
Aug 17, 2026 · 24 min
This was a HUGE ah ha moment for me and my ADHD son this summer. We've been in this pattern for as long as he's been able to talk. I ask him to do something, he tells me what he's doing instead. This has led to us BOTH being very reactive and triggered and it's been one pattern I haven't been able to crack. UNTIL NOW! In this episode I break down the exact moment we figured it out, how things have changed since, and exactly how we are practicing it so we can lower the defensive walls and start c…

155: Does your ADHD kid think they're "the bad kid?" And do you agree?
Jul 20, 2026 · 30 min
In this emotional episode I share a deeply pivotal moment in my son's ADHD journey. This is the episode for every parent who's said the unplanned, unfiltered thing and immediately hated themselves for it. What happens in our body before that moment, and why it keeps happening. When we hear "I hate you." or "you're the worst parent." These things come out of tiny mouths during dysregulation and how it hits us like a ton of bricks. I share how this happened to me over the weekend and I break down…

153: Why is it so hard to say YES to your ADHD kid?
Jul 6, 2026 · 16 min
This past weekend we had experienced several bumpy moments with my ADHD son. Things that we had been working on that weren't clicking the way I had hoped. Then we had a decent chunk of time where things were going WELL! It was fun, we were enjoying each other and I could see his effort. Then he started asking for some extra things. Nothing crazy, literally an extra scoop of ice cream and some sprinkles. And I could FEEL my body want to grab the "no" and stay there. I felt an instant resistance t…
152: If my ADHD kid is like this now…what will they be like at 18?!
Jun 29, 2026 · 24 min
This week I spoke to over a dozen parents. Every single one said a version of this "If they're like this now…what will they be like as a teenager? As an adult?" This fear is REAL for parents of ADHD kids. We want to know we've given them everything they need to be successful. Will they take no for an answer or take it too far? Will they be able to handle rejection or criticism? Will they be able to handle the responsibilities of a job? This is the episode about what fear is actually doing to us…
151: Get out of "The Reactive Trap" with your ADHD kid
Jun 22, 2026 · 28 min

And within seconds you're in a fight with your kid. Based on how many times you've been in this exact same fight, your nervous system is primed for the fight and you go round and round. In this episode I share the FIRST most critical step to get out of "The Reactive Trap" by identifying your "Expectation Gap." In this episode I share a fe…
150: Why is my ADHD kid MEAN!?
Jun 15, 2026 · 31 min
Have you noticed that when your ADHD kid is dysregulated it comes out as being plain nasty?! For lack of a better word, they turn into a total asshole! New EEG research shows that 96% of hyperactive-impulsive ADHD kids have a significant difference in frontal lobe activity during frustrating moments. And the net result is anger and aggression. Of that 96%, 63% is severe. This is important to note, because in neurotypical children, this outcome is 12%. This tells us it's less a behavior choice an…

139: How to stop taking 2 steps back with your ADHD kid
Mar 30, 2026 · 30 min
Does it feel like you're always taking 1 step forward and 2 steps back? Maybe 2 steps is generous and it feels more like 50 steps back. This is that feeling where you've "tried everything" and nothing seems to make any difference. In this week's podcast episode I share how we took a pretty big step backwards and how I am using my 8 step process to re-evaluate and get back on track even stronger than before.

132: Parenting amidst America's chaos
Feb 9, 2026 · 21 min
It feels impossible to know what to do as an American mother in the early months of 2026. Nothing about this is normal. Nothing. I do not claim to be an expert on politics.

131: I exploded during summer camp registration
Feb 2, 2026 · 28 min
In this episode I share 2 very specific moments in my parenting that I saw how external influences changed my internal state. And how when that was triggered, it pushed me right into a predictable pattern of reactivity. This experience showed me once again how important our internal health, sense of safety, and ability to regulate truly is because our emotional state transforms how we interact and react to the external. It can be so strong it makes us believe false realities that can keep us stu…
