How can parents, teachers, and communities better support neurodivergent children? How do autistic and ADHD individuals experience the world? Each week, we explore these questions with practical strategies, emotional insight, and real stories. I’m Greer — a mum of two boys (and two dogs!) raising a child with special educational needs (SEN) alongside my husband. Our daily life looks different from the norm, but it’s full of love, advocacy, and growth. I started this podcast to create a space for parents of neurodivergent kids, educators, and allies to learn, connect, and build understanding together. You’ll hear parenting tips, advocacy guidance, sensory strategies, and personal reflections that shine a light on both the joys and challenges of neurodivergent parenting. Through heartfelt solo episodes and guest interviews, we’ll talk about EHCP or IEP processes, school support, emotional regulation, and the big feelings that come with raising ND kids. Whether you’re here as a parent of an autistic or ADHD child, a late-diagnosed adult, a teacher seeking insight, or someone wanting to understand the neurodivergent world,…","last_synced_at":"2026-07-09T22:18:52.818817+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/neurodivergent-conversations-autism-adhd-audhd-pda-emotional-regulation-send-parent-meltdowns-special-needs-parent-7045757"},"episode":{"title":"Stop Doing It All Alone: ADHD Parenting Support That Brings Your Child Into the Strategies Too","slug":"stop-doing-it-all-alone-adhd-parenting-support-that-brings-your-child-into-the-strategies-too","published_at":"2026-03-26T04:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/neurodivergent-conversations-autism-adhd-audhd-pda-emotional-regulation-send-parent-meltdowns-special-needs-parent-7045757/stop-doing-it-all-alone-adhd-parenting-support-that-brings-your-child-into-the-strategies-too","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/neurodivergent-conversations-autism-adhd-audhd-pda-emotional-regulation-send-parent-meltdowns-special-needs-parent-7045757","url":"https://mgln.ai/e/424/traffic.megaphone.fm/TSF7590426582.mp3?updated=1774486009","audio_url":"https://mgln.ai/e/424/traffic.megaphone.fm/TSF7590426582.mp3?updated=1774486009","summary":"If you’re parenting a child with ADHD (or you’re late-diagnosed yourself), it can feel like you’re constantly trying to “figure it out” — schedules, school, food, sleep, behaviour, emotions… all of it. In this episode, Greer talks with Dr. Jennifer Dall about approaching ADHD through a whole-person lens: not as a “fix,” but as support for real life. They unpack why the basics (sleep, movement, food, connection) matter so much — and how to build strategies with your child so it doesn’t all sit on your shoulders. What we cover Why “whole body” support matters for ADHD day-to-day The question that can change everything: “What do I need right now?” How sleep, food, water, movement, and connection can shape emotional regulation Letting go of perfection (and the guilt) — and choosing supports that fit your life How to start including your child in problem-solving so they build self-advocacy over time Helping kids understand ADHD in an age-appropriate way (and giving them time to process) A gentle takeaway You’re not failing. This is a learning process — for you and your child — and small shifts can make a big difference.
