297 Parenting with ADHD? Here's the #1 Mindset Shift You Need!
In this episode, I sit down AGAIN with the amazing Dr. Jessica McCarthy to dive into the wild, messy, and beautiful world of parenting with ADHD. We’re getting real about emotional regulation (for us and our kids), that constant dance between connection and control, and why making repairs with our kiddos is pure magic.We unpack the unique challenges ADHD parents face—like, why is parenting so dang hard sometimes?! Plus, we talk about how having some kind of framework (even if we ADHD-ify it) can be a lifesaver. Oh, and teaching emotional regulation to our kids? Yep, it’s as hard as it sounds, but we’ve got thoughts on that too.There’s also a lot of love for being flexible, giving yourself grace, and remembering that developmental appropriateness isn’t just a buzzword – it’s key to surviving the rollercoaster of parenting. If you’ve ever felt like you’re screwing it all up, this episode is here to remind you that you’re not alone—and you’re probably doing better than you think.Grab your coffee (or hide in the pantry for a little break) and let’s dive in!Watch this episode on YouTubeWant help with your ADHD?
