Hey friends, I will be sharing from my personal experience and since I am not a licensed therapist or medical provider these episodes should not be considered therapeutic or medical advice. 

While we can chat about all the tips and tricks for doing self-care, we also need to look how life at home can be restructured to have less challenges. This is not making the home environment conflict free (because that is not possible), but looking at the highest causes of conflict and finding a way to revamp it to fit your neurodiverse family. Because the more conflict you endure, your need for self-care increases.

At the end of a exhausting and long day, time to unwind before bed is needed. Your mind is moving rapidly and you want to relax.

Sometime our go-to method of unplugging from the world is actually connecting with the world by scrollling.

If you want to unplug from this pattern, listen to my two tips to change this habit.

I found one of the best ways to enjoy life every day, especially when facing repeated challenges, is to live seasonally. And on this episode, the Queen of Seasonal Living, Lisamarie Landreth, is sharing extremely practical tips how you can add seasonal moments with as little as 1 minute a day. She shares her personal experience living seasonally with limited time and a budget. I highly encourage you to check out her amazing notes linked below.

Quick note, seasonal living is great for the whole family! It provides new sensory experiences along with pattern recognition for events and activities. I have included my family in this journey and it has been a joy to share it with them.

A little more about our guest. Lisamarie Landreth is the founder of Paper & Glam, a lifestyle membership and creative community helping women experience the year as an emotional progression—not another productivity cycle. Since 2008, she has brought women together through seasonal living, planning, reading, faith, and memory keeping, creating sustainable rhythms that help them become more present inside their everyday lives.

Paper & Glam is a world for women who want to hold everyday life beautifully.

Hey friends, I will be sharing from my personal experience and since I am not a licensed therapist or medical provider these episodes should not be considered therapeutic or medical advice.

We all have movies we’re glad never to watch again, and for me, that movie is Groundhog Day. I know, I know, it is a beloved classic, but watching the same day over and over again was painful for me.

When we have a neurodivergent spouse and children, life can sometimes feel the same way. As though every day is a repeat of the one before it, with the same problems on repeat, with little change.

Over the past few years, I’ve found small solutions that have helped me break out of that mindset, and I’m excited to share one of them with you today.

I love viewing our abilities and challenges with an executive function viewpoint, because it is a leveling field. Everyone has executve function skills they are weaker in and stronger in others, whether or not the person is neurodiverse. By focusing on our executive function strengths as individuals, you can find ways as a family to work together that richly reflects everyones uniqueness.
