Struggle Care

02: Q&A: ADHD, Kids, & Care Tasks


Listen Later

Welcome to another episode of Struggle Care! In our first episode, you heard my conversation with Dr. Lesley Cook about executive functioning. Because she has so much great information and wisdom to share, I decided to bring her back to discuss how to navigate care tasks specifically for ADHD adults and kids. Join us for the conversation with Dr. Lesley!


Dr. Lesley Cook is a psychologist who does a lot of work with ADHD and other neurodivergencies. Born and raised in Hawaii, she now lives in Virginia and works with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families. 


Show Highlights:


  • How to find the balance between the message of self-compassion and the need for better life management and progress


  • A basic understanding of self-compassion from Dr. Kristin Neff’s writings


  • A closer look at shame and how we experience it in relation to self-compassion


  • How to gently shift shame into self-compassion


  • How self-compassion can become a learned behavior that we pass down to our children
