ADHD Cliff's Notes: 

  1. In this solo episode, Steph talks about the things that have shifted in her family's holiday traditions in this season of life and reads her Listen To Your Mother Boulder story, "Mom's First ADHD Christmas."
  2. During a post-divorce era of raising teenage daughters, Steph is learning to let go of old traditions that they have outgrown. . . and some of it is a sweet relief. 
  3. Applying the ADHD lens to the holidays: which activities bring out our creative ADHD superpowers, and which ones feel like tedious tasks requiring too many executive functioning skills to feel joyful. 
  4. Embracing what is can be an essential element of a peaceful, fun holiday—this can mean letting go of things that no longer work, accepting shifting seasons of parenting, and allowing for happiness right where you are. 
  5. Steph confesses to the parts of the holiday season that feel anything but magical to her—stuffing stockings, playing Tooth Fairy, and hiding Easter eggs. 
  6. She shares the beautiful side of holidays with teenagers—and an ADHD household—and celebrates the new rituals and changes that have brought ease. 
  7. Understanding her ADHD brain has helped Steph find new ways to adapt during the holiday season to avoid unnecessary stress—how can you make small changes to accommodate your neurodivergence during a stressful season? 
  8. Join Stace and Steph for Reclamation: The Fempire Strikes Back on Thursday, December 5th. This all-female storytelling + stand-up comedy event is at Muse Performance Space in Lafayette from 7:00-8:30 pm. Tickets available here
