Are you a neurodivergent mom, or do you suspect you might be? This podcast is here for you. I’m a late-diagnosed neurodivergent mom and researcher, and I created this show to share the knowledge I wish I had when I first started navigating motherhood with a neurodivergent brain.
In this podcast, we dive into the science behind neurodivergence and how it shapes our experiences as mothers. You’ll find discussions on:
The Latest Research: ADHD, autism, sensory processing, emotional regulation, and all related to motherhood
Managing Everyday Struggles: Anxiety, mom guilt, intrusive thoughts, burnout, and how to navigate them with a neurodivergent brain.
Strengths of Neurodivergence: How our unique brains help us thrive as mothers.
Neurobiology of Motherhood: How your brain works differently and why that’s okay.
Practical Tools & Strategies: Brain rewiring exercises, coaching tips, and actionable steps to better understand your brain and improve your mothering journey.
Why This Podcast Is For You:
Whether you’re feeling isolated, overwhelmed, or like something’s just not quite “right” in your experience of motherhood, this space is for you. I’ll share my personal journey as a late-diagnosed neurodivergent mom and provide you with the resources, support, and tools that I wish I had when I was first starting out.
You’ll walk away with a deeper understanding of your brain, increased self-compassion, and practical strategies to become the best, most confident version of yourself as a mother.
