Welcome to the first episode of "This is ADHD!" I'm your host, Chris Johnson, and I am so excited to dive into the world of ADHD and raising families!
Joining us today is the amazing Nicola Ostler, Nicola's journey with ADHD started back in her own childhood, where she often felt like she was "just a bit too much." Now, as a parent raising not one, not two, but three children with suspected neurodivergence, she's bringing her experiences and insights to our conversation.
We'll be diving into parenting and the conversations we have with our kids. Talking about advocating for them in the school system to making necessary adjustments in their chores around the house, Nicola has a profound understanding of what it takes to truly support our neurodivergent children.
Nicola's reflections on the world's perception of oversensitivity and enthusiasm will make you question why we put such limitations on our authenticity. We'll also explore the confusion and self-doubt that often arise when we navigate the complexities of our minds.
Trust me when I say this conversation is going to be equal parts enlightening and entertaining. Nicola's warmth, humor, and raw honesty will have you feeling like you're chatting with an old friend over a cup of tea.
So, if you're ready to dive deep into the world of ADHD parenting, understanding the challenges, embracing the quirks, and finding the beauty in it all, join us for this incredible episode of "This is ADHD!" Trust me, you won't want to miss it.
