We come to parenting with all the patterns we learned in our own childhood. Together in this podcast, we uncover the roots of our reactivity and grow in education, capacity, awareness, and skills so we will be able to respond vs. react to our strong-willed children. The beauty of this process is as you become a ResponseAble Parent, the "misbehavior" of your children will lessen, the yelling will fall away and a new level of companionship and cooperation will take its place. Welcome to the journey of ResponseAble Parenting. Take a deep breath in, slow exhale out, and let's get to work.

I asked my son to do something that at this point shouldn't be a battle at all. But it was. I asked my son to brush his teeth before bed. I know I know, what a terrible mom! As soon as I asked, his refusal kicked on, his silliness increased, he was delaying, delaying, delaying. I was able to talk to him after the power struggle and in fact audio recorded so I could hear him and learn what was getting in his way. HE SPILLED THE MOST IMPORTANT DETAILS! And I'm sharing them with you!! Get ready to understand your kids like never before! I am breaking down each sentence and the peer reviewed studies that back up everything he is saying!!! It's wild and so so important to know! 🚨FIRST EVER ADHD BEHAVIOR BLUEPRINT 🚨LIVE EVENT IS HAPPENING!!🚨 You're having the same power struggle over the tasks that HAVE to get done. Homework, teeth brushing, putting ONE piece of clothing away, bedtime… heaven forbid you ALSO ask that they speak kindly during this process. 🤯 The level of overwhelm, dysregulation, and frustration you're living with day to day is real and it's unfair. 🙅🏼♀️This is NOT what you pictured parenting to look like, and this version of you as a parent, is not aligning with your values. You want to be a kind, accepting, patient person but you end up snapping or getting into your ADHD kid's feelings with them. 🎉But that all changes now! 🎉 You're going to be able to stop walking on eggshells, stop feeling utterly defeated and like you're making all the wrong choices, and ACTUALLY KNOW how you and your child can get through both transitions and all the everyday "must do tasks" without yet another fight! AND, you don't need to repeat yourself to the point of yelling! Imagine feeling grounded and proud of yourself for navigating the day with regulation instead of multiple yelling matches. There are many ADHD strategies out there, but after working exclusively with severe high conflict families, I've filtered out what doesn't work for ADHD kids (*cough gentle parenting) and combined my education, research & lived experience into the core A.B.L.E. Method. You do not need to have the same battle every day. It starts with regulation, a plan, some practice reps, and a lot of reinforcement. Not sure how that looks in real life? Don't worry! I've got your back in a 2 day live event (well on zoom but with me😂) where we go over YOUR repeated battle and we BUILD YOUR PLAN so all you have to do is execute it! January 9th & 10th, 2027 (9am-11am PST both days) *Recorded for those who can't attend live. No more second guessing, no more confusion, just a proven strategy to support your power struggle.

Part of parenting an ADHD child is that the volume of challenges can really chip away at the well of unconditional love. And you wake up one day realizing there is a long list of conditions that your child has to meet in order to feel that unconditional energy. I don't say this as criticism. I say this as having experienced it and knowing how gutting that feeling can be. In this episode I share a mindset and schedule shift that needs to happen in order to shift that trajectory towards the positive and away from the what feels like inevitable divided relationship. 🎉STOP YELLING!

In this episode I'm going to share a few techniques and give you a little homework to do this week to help you take a very proactive step towards reacting less and controlling your emotions more. 🎉STOP YELLING!

Rage is getting louder. Rage is feeling more ever present in the world of women in their 40s. And rage is influencing our parenting and our relationships. Rage is a key indicator of perimenopause. And when we are in perimenopause our estrogen is fluctuating causing us to have less of an ability to buffer hard emotions and manage negative feelings. In this episode I share how complex this moment can be for us as mothers to ADHD children and the ONE strategy that we will do together as a tribe of mothers to support ourselves. Not so we can support the rest of the family at a level of perfection that we've been striving for that cannot be attained…Rather so we can pull the roots of perfectionism out of our lives and free ourselves from this anger, rage, shame cycle we find ourselves in more and more often. 🎉STOP YELLING!

In this episode I share the findings from 4 studies that look at the physical aggression of ADHD children. I connect the dots from these studies to what is likely happening in your home with your ADHD child when they are frustrated, have been told no, or are being asked to transition. The data suggests that 78.9% of the people who will listen to this podcast have experienced some form of child to parent violence during a moment of dysregulation. That means you are most certainly not alone. My hope in this episode is to share a bigger picture about what is happening for your child as well as proven strategies that will support YOU in the moment as well as strategies that will begin to develop the lagging skills so these moments are no longer common occurrences in your home.

Over the past week so many parents shared with me that managing their child's mood was like walking on eggshells. They were constantly scanning for things that would trigger their child or set them off. And they'd try to avoid it but all the strategies used seemed to intensify the moment or backfire completely. In this week's episode I talk about that anticipatory anxiety and how our nervous system's survival strategy is failing us. And I give you steps on how to rebuild that predictability so both you and your child come to these triggering moments in a different way. I give you an example from my own home around the Chrome Book (something my son wants more of and I want less of) and how we were able to rebuild this high conflict moment into something that is collaborative and calm. 🎉STOP YELLING!
