If you feel like you are parenting all day long and nothing is actually changing, this episode explores why. In this episode of The Path to Peace Therapy Podcast, I break down why willpower and consequences fail in ADHD households and how differences in executive functioning impact daily behavior. Drawing from clinical neuropsychology and lived experience, I explain how environmental scaffolding reduces burnout, supports regulation, and creates sustainable change for neurodivergent families.
