In this episode's conversation, Coach Karen interviews Shridhevi, who works with the neurodiverse and neurodivergent communities and parents.
Who is Shridhevi?
She says, “I am a parenting coach for busy professional moms, specializing in helping moms who feel stuck, have tried everything, and still can't get their child to listen. I also assist those who struggle with understanding their child's emotions or dealing with anger. I have supported hundreds of parents with children ranging from toddlers to teens to raise emotionally intelligent, independent and resilient children. My approach is to help parents figure out what they want to do, rather than telling them what you should do. I use processes such as motivation, flexible thinking, and a value-based framework to help parents get unstuck.
I help parents in every aspect, whether they have neurodiverse or neurotypical kids, improving health, increasing energy, or achieving a more harmonious work-life balance, to enhance their quality of life with their child. In addition to being a parenting coach, I am an author and podcaster, and I enjoy speaking, drawing, and painting.”
Takeaways
Embrace authenticity and follow your true passion.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) can help increase flexible thinking and create behavior change.
Advocacy and support are crucial in navigating the education system for special needs children.
Resources such as books and coaching can provide guidance and help parents and individuals with neurodivergent conditions.
Quotes from the show
"Parents need help to navigate special needs challenges as much as the children do"
"Being more authentic as a person creates opportunities"
"Instead of thinking we have to Change behavior, see it as a replacement of behaviors"
