In this heartfelt episode of The Unfinished Idea, I’m joined by Dr. Tamara Rosier—ADHD coach, speaker, and author of You, Me, and Our ADHD Family. Together, we dive into the real-life dynamics of parenting in a household where ADHD is more than a diagnosis—it’s part of everyday life.

We talk about the emotional intensity that so often comes with raising neurodivergent children, and how learning to “stay on the edge of the emotional pool” can help us support our kids without getting pulled under ourselves. Dr. Tamara shares honest reflections on parenting with ADHD, the healing that comes from connection, and why silly car games and hard conversations both matter in raising emotionally resilient kids.

If you’re navigating life in an ADHD household—whether you’re a parent with ADHD, raising a child who’s neurodivergent, or both—this episode is packed with practical encouragement, mindset shifts, and permission to find joy even in the chaos. Dr. Tamara’s wisdom reminds us that the goal isn’t perfection—it’s connection, compassion, and understanding how each of our brains work.

This is the kind of conversation that makes you breathe a little easier, knowing you’re not alone in the messy middle of parenting differently-wired kids.
