Reviews

5.0 out of 5 stars from 80 ratings
  • Honestly it's a good podcast with useful information, despite frequently (host and guests, both) misusing the term "neurodiverse" (which means - a group of people with different neurotypes) when they mean neurodivergent (meaning an individual with a non-standard neurotype)

    This is an issue because it's one of the biggest mistakes that NT folks make when trying to appear neuroaffirming (but not genuinely understanding) so it's going to turn lots of folks off.

  • NECESSARY LISTEN for Parents Raising Neurodivergent Kids Or ARE Neurodivergent Themselves

    It’s so easy to feel alone when parenting an autistic child. No one ever seems to understand or relate. And as someone who is also ADHD, I FINALLY understand myself so much. This podcast was an immediate subscribe for me and I am so relieved to feel seen.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Guilt Equation: Why Mum Guilt Is Really an Expectations Problem
Q: What is your practical advice for a overwhelmed mom who wants help but struggles to ask for it?
Start by asking for specific help, like a regular chore relief or a set task, and practice advocating for yourself by reframing thoughts around responsibility and self-care.
Why Standard Sleep Advice Doesn't Work for Neurodivergent Kids
Q: What simple, actionable step can a parent try tonight?
Inject joy and meet sensory needs before bed with activities that involve movement and play, which engage the parasympathetic system and gently boost natural melatonin, making bedtime enjoyable rather than a battle.
Why Standard Sleep Advice Doesn't Work for Neurodivergent Kids
Q: How did you shift from a traditional routine to a more flexible, sensory-friendly approach?
I started by spreading the stacked evening demands across the entire night, letting go of rigid routines like daily baths, and incorporating neuroaffirming strategies that focus on regulation and sensory needs.
Why Standard Sleep Advice Doesn't Work for Neurodivergent Kids
Q: What moment made you realize standard sleep advice wasn't built for neurodivergent brains?
I was puzzled because what had been working suddenly stopped; as a sleep consultant I thought I was doing everything right, but my children's bedtime battles escalated, prompting me to seek neuroaffirming guidance and adapt the approach to their nervous systems.
Different Isn't Wrong: Marriage When You Both Have Different Brains
Q: How do you stay connected and keep the relationship fun when navigating neurodivergent brains?
Date nights at home, doing light-hearted, silly activities, and making laughter a priority helps maintain friendship and connection beyond daily logistics.
