In this episode, Lauren is joined by fellow parenting coach and host of the Happier Mom By the Minute podcast -- Stacey Yates Sellar -- as they discuss Conscious Parenting and Stacey’s specific niche: Conscious Parenting children with ADHD! Stacey shares her wisdom and personal experience on how to consciously face the unique behavioral challenges of a child with ADHD, but don’t worry, these insights can apply to just about anyone. As Stacey puts it, “The techniques, the tools, and the parenting I do for my ADHD child is exactly what I'm doing for my typically developing child. It’s just more extreme, more often, and I have to do more investigating [for my ADHD child].”
So tune in as Lauren and Stacey connect over Conscious Parenting and share tools for parenting children with ADHD and beyond in this special conversation!
In this episode we talk about:
- What Conscious Parenting children with ADHD looks like and how that differs - or doesn’t - from Conscious Parenting “neurotypical” or typically developing children.
- Misconceptions around ADHD and parenting children with ADHD.
- The gift, benefit, and necessity of conflict/challenge.
- Deconstructing the notion that compliance equals “good.”
- How we can empower and honor our children’s preferences and feelings, as well as our own.
- Why a dysregulated adult cannot help a dysregulated child regulate themselves.
