If you have ever been unsure how to handle your kids with ADHD, this is the perfect episode for you.

Ashley Ogbaselassie is a speaker, blogger and ADHD parenting coach.

Ashley is a lifelong learner, lover of connecting with people, and mom of 3 active boys. After struggling through the first years of parenting, getting stuck in comparison and feeling like she was the only one having a hard time, she finally navigated the long path to an ADHD diagnosis for her oldest and herself. And then she realized one important truth: ADHD is her superpower. After years of anxiety and feeling inadequate as a parent, she went from trying to change and control her kids to heal and change herself. She is now a parenting coach for parents of kids with ADHD and who are probably a lil neurospicy themselves.

In this episode, Ashley gets real about her story with diagnosis-- along with the MANY pitfalls involved with getting a diagnosis. And then she goes into deep details about how being the parent of a kid with possible or confirmed neurodivergence can mess with your own nervous system.

Don't worry, it's full of relateable, actionable steps that have you giggling through all the way.
