What if your child's ADHD challenges weren't a life sentence — but a signal that something deeper is going on in the body?

In this deeply inspiring episode of The Soaring Child Podcast, host Dana Kay sits down with Zac and Caitlin Hogan, two parents who went from constant chaos, meltdowns, and hopelessness to calm, connection, and confidence — all through natural strategies that got to the root of their child's ADHD.

The Hogans share the emotional highs and lows of their journey: the daily struggles that pushed them to the edge, the discovery of the ADHD Thrive Method 4 Kids, and how making key dietary and environmental changes completely transformed their family's life. Their story will remind every parent listening that healing is possible, that behavior is communication, and that thriving ,not just survivingis within reach.

Whether you're feeling stuck, skeptical, or desperate for change, this episode will help you see what's possible when you look beyond medication and start working with your child's biology instead of against it.

Memorable Moments: "There were nights we'd look at each other and say, 'We can't do this anymore.' It was that hard." "We were doing everything right therapy, meds, diets and still, nothing was changing." "When we took out dairy, it was like someone turned the lights back on in our daughter's brain." "We stopped trying to fix her and started supporting she that's when everything changed." "She started smiling again, laughing again. It sounds small, but it was everything." "I remember thinking, 'Oh my gosh, she's calm. She's actually calm.' We hadn't seen that in years." "The biggest change wasn't just in her, it was in us. We finally stopped living in survival mode." "If you're listening and you're where we were, don't give up. There's hope — real, tangible hope."
