As we recognize Children's Awareness Month, Derek and Aleka share how their journey parenting a son with ADHD inspired them to create Thinklete — a mentorship program designed to help young athletes build confidence, resilience, emotional regulation skills, and a strong mindset both on and off the field.
Together, we discuss the unique challenges many children with ADHD face in sports, the role coaches and parents play in supporting neurodivergent athletes, and why helping children understand that their differences can be their greatest strengths is so important.
We also explore how sports can become a powerful vehicle for growth, confidence, self-belief, and connection when children are given the right tools and support.
This conversation is filled with practical insights, encouragement, and hope for parents, coaches, educators, and anyone passionate about helping children reach their full potential.
We are also excited to share that Anthony's Way – The Road to Kindness is partnering with Thinklete to provide additional resources and support opportunities for the children and families we serve through our Comprehensive Care Roadmap.
