  • From Fixing to Affirming

    As an adult with ADHD and mom of a child with autism and OCD, I’ve listened to countless podcasts — but EVOLVE with Dr. Tay actually shows what acceptance means. Acceptance isn’t just acknowledging neurodivergent people exist; it’s understanding, supporting, and affirming them as they are.

    This podcast is a must-listen for anyone who wants to best support and be an ally to the neurodivergent community.

  • Mostly a long ad for courses

    Like most podcasts on this subject out there, it’s mostly an ad for their paid courses. Little concrete information to help parents but if you want to know more then sign up apparently

  • Love love love

    I listen to this pod all the time. I send links of specific episodes to fellow mom friends and teachers and aides who work with my kid. I often wish I’d heard this info and been more aware before I had either of my kids instead of after they were well into elementary school. It’s important info for all parents or caregivers regardless of the specific needs of the kids in your life. There is so much value here for everyone.

  • So helpful!

    Dr. Tay shares her knowledge in such a straight forward and easy to understand way. My recent favorite was the episode for friends and family members. My family started to understand our kids so much better after listening to that episode.

Q: Is the administration going after Tylenol as a company or acetaminophen in general?
It's interesting because, again, the press conference was talking about acetaminophen as a whole, but there are concerns about its effects and the narrative surrounding its use.
