Episode 92: When Your Ex Doesn't Believe in ADHD with Carolyn Tate
What happens when you can see your child needs support, and the other parent doesn’t believe ADHD is real? In this episode of the ADHD Families Podcast, Sharon Collon sits down with Carolyn Tate, former parenting and health journalist, late-diagnosed ADHDer and founder of Women’s Divorce Academy. Over seven years, Carolyn has helped close to a thousand women through separation and divorce. Carolyn shares her own story: the New Year’s Eve she knew her marriage was over, the overwhelm that stretched her divorcex out for years, and the two and a half years it took to get her daughter assessed and supported when her ex-husband wasn’t on board. This is a practical conversation about co-parenting a child with ADHD after separation. No villains, no court battles. Just how to advocate for your child, when to stop trying to convince the other parent, how to handle two homes with two sets of rules, and how to look after yourself when you’re carrying most of the load. If you’re separated, divorcing or thinking about it, and parenting a child with ADHD, this episode gives you a clear place to start. 👀 In This Episode, Sharon Covers ✅ Advocating for an ADHD diagnosis when your ex doesn’t accept it ✅ When to stop trying to convince the other parent and put that energy into your child ✅ What Carolyn’s ADHD gave her through separation ✅ Parallel parenting when you can’t co-parent together ✅ Two homes, two sets of rules: what you can and can’t control ✅ Why kids with ADHD are more adaptable than we give them credit for ✅ The financial disadvantage women face in divorce ✅ The biggest mistake Carolyn sees women make (taking legal advice from their ex) ✅ Where to put your energy when you’re carrying the invisible load ✅ Preventing burnout as a separated mum ✅ The unexpected positives women find twelve months on This episode shares general information and lived experience, not legal advice. Please seek advice specific to your situation. ⏱️ Episode Timestamps 00:00 Welcome and why this episode 01:37 Meet Carolyn Tate 01:51 The moment Carolyn knew her marriage was ending 03:20 Overwhelm, delay and the undiagnosed ADHD brain 04:06 What ADHD gave Carolyn through separation 05:00 Carolyn’s work and Women’s Divorce Academy 06:12 The divorce disadvantage for women 08:06 Advocating for a diagnosis the other parent doesn’t accept 11:03 Why ADHD divides families 12:21 Parallel parenting after diagnosis 13:16 Advice when your ex rejects the diagnosis 16:05 Two homes, two sets of rules 17:32 Kids already navigate different rules every day 18:05 The biggest pain points women bring to divorce 19:29 What Carolyn would tell her past self 21:35 Where to put your limited energy 23:15 Looking after the mum 25:55 The unexpected positives of divorce 28:09 Women’s biggest fears about divorce 30:37 Support to call in 33:30 Final thoughts Key Takeaways Put your child at the centre of every decision, and let that guide where your energy goes. You can’t force the other parent to agree. Be clear about your next steps and follow through. Consistency in one home is enough. Build systems that work in yours. Children are better off without ongoing conflict. Divorce itself isn’t what harms them. Get advice early and build your support network. You don’t have to carry it alone. Never take legal or financial advice from your ex. Self-care is listening to what you need right now, not ticking another box.

Episode 91: Why Your ADHD Child Baits Their Sibling (and Why Telling Them to Stop Never Works)
***Join Managing Sibling Conflict & ADHD Session*** Why does one child seem to know exactly how to push their sibling’s buttons, then keep going until the whole house explodes? Sibling baiting is incredibly common in ADHD families. It can look small from the outside. Standing too close to a prized possession. Making a particular noise. Saying the one thing they know will get a reaction. But underneath that behaviour, there can be much more going on. In this episode, Credentialed ADHD family Coach Sharon Collon is joined by registered Psychologist Jacquie Ward to unpack why ADHD sibling conflict can escalate so quickly and why focusing on who started it often makes things worse. They explore boredom and low-arousal states, rejection sensitivity, fairness, emotional regulation and the role parents can unintentionally play when they step in as the referee. Because when the same fights happen again and again, the answer is not another lecture about being nice to each other. It is understanding the predictable pattern and knowing what to do when it starts. 👀 In This Episode, Sharon Covers ✅ What sibling baiting and “rage baiting” actually look like ✅ Why an ADHD brain may seek stimulation by provoking a sibling ✅ How boredom and low-arousal states can contribute to conflict ✅ Why rejection sensitivity can turn a small interaction into a huge emotional reaction ✅ How asking “Who started it?” can intensify the conflict ✅ Why ADHD children’s strong sense of fairness can make arguments harder to resolve ✅ The difference between being the family referee and becoming the competent captain ✅ Why being steady is often more useful than trying to make everything fair ✅ How to recognise the predictable patterns behind recurring sibling fights ✅ Why having scripts ready matters when you are dysregulated too The Real Problem With Sibling Conflict The hardest part is often not the argument itself. It is feeling like you are dealing with the same fight on repeat. One child baits.The other reacts.Someone explodes.You step in and try to establish what happened.Everyone argues about what is fair.You become dysregulated too. Then, the next day, it happens all over again. In the heat of the moment, it can be incredibly difficult to remember the parenting strategy you intended to use. You might start gently, become stricter, raise your voice, separate everyone and then wonder afterwards what you could have done differently. Sharon and Jacquie explain why the goal is not a home where siblings never fight. The goal is to understand the pattern, know how to interrupt it and have a clear playbook for what to do next. ⏱️ Episode Timestamps 00:00 Sharon’s childhood sibling-baiting story01:15 Why sibling baiting is so common in ADHD families02:35 What is baiting and rage baiting?03:37 What baiting looks like at home04:46 Why the obvious trigger is not always the real problem05:43 Rejection sensitivity and ADHD sibling conflict06:44 Why a small poke can become a 40-minute meltdown07:25 What happens when parents ask, “Who started it?”08:13 The problem with becoming the family referee09:12 The competent captain approach10:39 Why steadiness matters more than perfect fairness12:05 Staying regulated when your children are not12:43 The two-day sibling conflict observation exercise13:57 Identifying predictable problems15:23 Why parents need practical scripts15:59 What success with sibling conflict actually looks

Episode 90: You've Read Everything About ADHD. Nothing's Sticking.
***Join the ADHD Family Quest***How many tabs about ADHD do you have open right now? On your phone, on your laptop. The one about dopamine. The one about demand avoidance. The routine chart someone swore by at 11pm. You are not short on information about ADHD. You could probably explain executive function better than your GP can. And your Tuesday morning at 7:40am still falls apart. That gap between everything you know and what actually happens in your house is not a knowledge problem. In this episode, Sharon Collon breaks down the two traps almost every ADHD family gets stuck in: knowledge farming, where you collect information you cannot implement, and system farming, where you buy the visual schedule, the magnetic chore chart and the beautiful Etsy printable, and it dies within a fortnight anyway. She tells the story of two families who photographed the washing chart in her laundry, and why she already knew standing there that it would not work in their houses. Then she gives you the one shift that changes how you build anything at home from here: build the system for your worst day, not your best one. 👀 In This Episode, Sharon Covers: Why you can know everything about ADHD and still not be able to run a Tuesday morning Knowledge farming, and why information gives you the what but almost never the how System farming, and why the chart you set up on Sunday is dead by the second week What parents wrongly conclude about themselves when a routine falls over Why a bought or copied system arrives with no household attached to it The hidden 95% of decisions underneath any system that actually works Why every household has its own physics, and why that breaks borrowed routines The one shift: designing for a low capacity day instead of your most optimistic one Why getting started, stopping something enjoyable and holding a three step instruction are all skills How missing skills get mistaken for defiance, laziness and a child who does not care Kate’s story: how a Sunday that ran like a military operation became three steps done before lunch Why “get ready for the week” is a category, not a job, and why that causes paralysis Why one bad Sunday no longer takes Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday down with it Why it is called The Functional Family, and what Sharon is actually building towards 🧭 The Three Questions to Run This Week Pick one thing you have been trying to make stick. Not all of them. One. Does this work if I am not in the room? If it never will, what you have is not a system. It is a performance that needs you as the lead actor, and your child has not learned anything, because the thing doing the work is you. Does this still work on a bad day? If it needs everyone calm, regulated and cooperative to function, it is not a system. It is a good mood. What skill is actually missing for my child here? Name the missing skill and two things change. You stop taking it personally, and you stop building systems that punish a child for something they cannot do yet. The biggest takeaway? The system is not there to make a child comply. It is there to do the job your child’s brain cannot do yet, so they can practise the rest without failing every single day while they learn. ⏱️ Episode Timestamps 00:00 — How many ADHD tabs do you have open right now01:15 — The gap between what you know and what happens at 7:40am02:10 — Trap one: knowledge farming04:00 — Trap two: system farming, and what you conclude when the chart fails05:45 — The question Sharon wants you to answer for yourself06:30 — The washing chart story: two families, two phones08:45 — Why every household has its own physics11:00 — The shift: build for your worst day, not your best one12:45 — Question one: does it work when you are not in the room?14:00 — Question two: does it work on a bad day?15:00 — Question three: what skill is actually missing?16:45 — Why getting started and stopping are skills, not attitude18:15 — Kate’s story: getting Sunday back21:00 — Why it is called The Functional Family22:45 — The bridge between knowledge you cannot use and systems that will not hold24:15 — “I think I need one to one coaching”, answered honestly25:45 — What to do this week 🚀 Ready to Map the Friction in Your Family?

Episode 89: Why Reward Charts Stop Working for Children With ADHD
Week one, the reward chart is magic. Your child is racing to the fridge for their gold star. The school bag is actually being put away. Nobody is nagging. Nobody is arguing. And you think, finally, THIS is the thing that is going to change our family. Then week two arrives. The magnets are missing. The stickers are on the floor. Nobody cares about the chart anymore and another beautifully laminated parenting system gets shoved into the kitchen drawer where hope goes to die. So, why do reward charts seem to work brilliantly for children with ADHD, until suddenly they don’t? In this episode, Sharon explains why reward charts often clash with the way the ADHD brain experiences motivation, novelty and time, and why the answer isn't becoming more consistent, finding a bigger reward or buying an even fancier chart. You'll also learn what works instead: designing simple systems and environments that make the behaviour you want the easiest, most obvious next step. 👀 In This Episode, Sharon Covers: Why reward charts work brilliantly at first, then suddenly stop How novelty drives motivation for the ADHD brain Why delayed rewards often lose their motivational pull Sharon's rule: "The ADHD brain pays in cash, not credit" Why this isn't about laziness, willpower or parental consistency The gap between knowing what to do and being able to do it Why changing the environment can work better than adding another reward How to make the behaviour you want easier and more obvious Where rewards can still be useful for children with ADHD How to start with one small friction point in your family ⏱️ Episode Timestamps 00:00 Why reward charts work, until they don't02:30 Sharon's reward chart graveyard03:45 Why novelty motivates the ADHD brain05:30 The problem with delayed rewards06:30 The ADHD brain pays in cash, not credit09:15 Why this isn't a willpower problem11:00 Look at what already works in your family12:30 Why systems work better than reward charts14:15 Remove barriers and make the behaviour easier17:00 Where rewards still fit and what to try this week 🚀 Ready to Stop Managing Behaviour and Start Building Systems?

Episode 88: Angel at School, Falling Apart at Home: After-School Meltdowns Explained
They held it together all day. The teacher says they were fine. Maybe they even had a great day. Then they walk through the front door and within 10 minutes, everything falls apart. The bag gets thrown. There are tears over the wrong snack. A sibling looks at them the wrong way. Something tiny turns into a full meltdown that wipes out the entire evening. So why does your child with ADHD manage all day at school — then completely unravel at home? In this episode, Sharon explains after-school restraint collapse and why home is often the place where children finally release everything they’ve been holding together all day. You’ll also learn why the first 30 minutes after school need their own system, what to do when your child is already dysregulated, and why planning for siblings, snacks, sensory input and your own capacity can completely change the afternoon. 👀 In This Episode, Sharon Covers: Why ADHD children can hold it together at school and fall apart at home What after-school restraint collapse actually is The signs that “bad behaviour” may actually be dysregulation Why the ADHD brain can arrive home completely out of fuel How medication rebound may affect the after-school window Why reasoning, consequences and explanations don’t work mid-meltdown What to do instead when your child is emotionally flooded Why the first 30 minutes after school matter so much How to create an automatic decompression space Why the first 20 minutes should be a low-demand window How your first greeting can either lower or increase demand Why siblings need their own after-school plan How to design the 3–5pm window for the whole family, not just the child with ADHD When worsening after-school meltdowns may be a sign that something else has shifted The biggest takeaway? After-school collapse isn’t random. It’s predictable. And predictable problems can be planned for. ⏱️ Episode Timestamps 00:00 — Why your child falls apart the moment they get home01:20 — Why ADHD kids hold it together at school and release at home02:30 — What after-school restraint collapse actually is03:35 — When “bad behaviour” is actually dysregulation04:20 — Why afternoons need a completely different system05:15 — Medication rebound and the after-school window06:00 — What to do when your child is already melting down07:10 — Building the crucial first 30 minutes after school08:15 — Decompression, no demands and the after-school handover09:25 — Why siblings need an after-school plan too10:15 — Designing the 3–5pm window for the whole family11:20 — When worsening meltdowns are telling you something has shifted12:05 — Put the 3pm crash on your family’s Friction Map 🚀 Ready to Map the Friction in Your Family?

And when we can see the patterns creating friction, we can start building systems that actually support the whole family. That’s exactly what we’ll do in my FREE ADHD Family System online workshop.

Episode 87: ADHD and Big Emotions: Why the Smallest Thing Sets Them Off
The toast was cut the wrong way. That’s all it took. Suddenly there are tears, slammed doors and an emotional reaction so huge you’re standing there wondering, how is THIS the hill we’re dying on today? If your child with ADHD can go from zero to completely overwhelmed over something that seems tiny, this episode will help you understand why. Sharon breaks down what’s really happening underneath ADHD emotional dysregulation, meltdowns and big emotional reactions and why the size of the reaction often has very little to do with the size of the trigger. You’ll also learn why reasoning with your child in the middle of an emotional storm rarely works, what Rejection Sensitivity Dysphoria (RSD) can look like in everyday family life, and what to do instead. 👀 In This Episode, Sharon Covers: Why small triggers can create enormous ADHD emotional reactions How executive function affects emotional regulation Why the “wrong toast” is rarely actually about the toast What RSD is and why ordinary corrections can feel enormous Why your child may hold it together all day and fall apart with you Why explaining, reasoning and consequences don’t work mid-meltdown How co-regulation helps your child come back online Five practical things Sharon does during big emotions Why the real teaching happens after the storm The biggest takeaway? Your calm is the tool. Everything else gets built on top of it. ⏱️ Episode Timestamps 00:00 — When the smallest thing triggers a huge emotional reaction01:20 — The kitchen sponge story: when the reaction doesn’t match the trigger02:15 — Why ADHD emotions can feel so big, so fast03:30 — Executive function, emotional regulation and the missing “pause”05:00 — Rejection Sensitivity Dysphoria (RSD) and why correction can hurt06:35 — How to correct with warmth without walking on eggshells07:20 — Why your child holds it together for everyone else — then falls apart with you08:45 — Co-regulation: why your nervous system matters09:35 — Five things to do during an ADHD emotional meltdown11:45 — What NOT to do when your child is emotionally flooded12:45 — Spotting your family’s predictable emotional flashpoints13:20 — The ADHD Family System and building your Friction Map 🚀 The ADHD Family System — FREE Online Workshop If your family keeps getting caught in the same meltdowns, transitions and daily battles, there’s probably a pattern underneath them.

Episode 86: Why Your Child's Meltdowns Happen at the Same Time Every Day
Why does your child melt down at exactly 7:15am, 3:15pm and 8:45pm, like clockwork? On the ADHD Families Podcast, Sharon Collon, PCC credentialed ADHD coach and founder of The Functional Family, explains why ADHD meltdowns aren't random. They run to a very tight timetable, and that timetable is the most useful information you've got. Sharon unpacks the three windows where most ADHD families break (morning launch, after school landing and the bedtime encore), answers the question every parent asks her, and walks you through four practical moves to plan for the pattern instead of reacting to it.

Episode 85: My Teen with ADHD Won't Try Coaching. Now What?
You've found the support. You've done the research. You know your teenager could benefit from ADHD coaching... But every time you bring it up, you're met with, "I'm fine." or "I don't need it." If you're wondering how to help a reluctant teen without pushing them further away, this episode is for you. In this episode of the ADHD Families Podcast, Sharon Collon is joined by ADHD Teen Coach Kimberley, who shares why so many teenagers resist support, what ADHD coaching actually looks like, and how parents can introduce help in a way that builds trust instead of resistance. Together, they unpack why resistance isn't defiance—it's often protection—and why the right support, at the right time, can help teens build confidence, executive functioning skills and emotional resilience that lasts well beyond school. 👀 In This Episode, Sharon and Kimberley Covers ✔️ Why resistance to support is often a sign of protection—not defiance ✔️ How executive functioning challenges can be mistaken for laziness or lack of motivation ✔️ Why ADHD coaching is different from therapy ✔️ How to introduce coaching without pressure or conflict ✔️ What teenagers actually work on during ADHD coaching sessions ✔️ Why connection comes before strategy ✔️ How confidentiality works between coaches, teens and parents ✔️ What progress really looks like in ADHD coaching ✔️ Why confidence and self-awareness come before behaviour change ✔️ How coaching helps teenagers understand and work with their ADHD brain ⏱️ Episode Timestamps 00:00 – Why teens often refuse ADHD support 03:12 – Meet Kimberley: ADHD coach, educator and mum 05:34 – The executive functioning skills teens are missing 08:02 – Why your teen keeps saying "No" 11:03 – How to introduce ADHD coaching without creating resistance 12:54 – What ADHD coaching actually helps teenagers with 15:53 – Building trust, confidence and connection before strategies 20:44 – The biggest mistakes parents make when seeking support 27:49 – What success looks like when coaching starts to work 30:56 – Special offer for ADHD Teen Coaching ⭐️ Teen ADHD Coaching with Kimberley Looking for practical, strengths-based support for your teenager?
