#157: ADHD and Nutrition: Separating Fact from Fiction with Dr. Taylor Arnold May 20, 2024

Show notes

Nutrition advice and ADHD can be so tricky. From empty product promises to misleading marketing, finding support for your child’s diet seems to be one discouragement after another. You buy all the supplements, limit all the things, and notice a minimal difference. Our goal has always been to support families. It’s no secret that balanced nutrition is part of a healthy start for kids, but what about all the other information? In today’s episode, we interview pediatric nutrition expert Dr. Taylor Arnold to help us separate fact from fiction regarding ADHD and nutrition.

MEET TAYLOR

Dr. Taylor Arnold is a pediatric nutrition expert. She specializes in helping parents nurture healthy relationships with food so their kids eat more veggies and don’t obsess over sweets. Dr. Taylor is a mom of three, has a PhD in nutrition, and is a pediatric registered dietitian.

#156: I Didn’t Mean to Do That! Impulsivity and ADHD May 13, 2024

Show notes

“Why did you do that?”

“What were you thinking?”

Sound familiar?

When our kids act impulsively, it is easy for us to get frustrated and confused. We might start asking our kids why they behaved the way they did. The truth is, initially, they often don’t even know. Once everyone is regulated, it is easier to figure out what happened. As parents, we naturally want our kids with ADHD to slow down and consider their actions, but it's a challenge. It can be heartbreaking to see impulsive behavior negatively impact their social life or lead to consequences. That's why today, we’re sharing strategies to help them develop through these situations.

MEET OUR TEAM

We are Lori, Mallory, and Katie. Lori and Mallory are child psychologists, and Katie is a speech language pathologist. We’ve spent decades supporting thousands of families navigating ADHD. And we’re also moms: some of us raising kids with ADHD and some of us navigating it ourselves… which means we understand both the science and the real-life moments that don’t make it into textbooks.

#154: Why Kids with ADHD Lie and What to Do About It Apr 29, 2024

Show notes

Most of the time, we don’t need to see growing noses to know if our kids are telling us a lie. We catch the lie, and then all the feelings come. We might feel angry, hurt, worried, or downright annoyed. Navigating our own reactions can be tricky. As parents, it's important to keep in mind that our kids have differences in their executive functioning. We want to empower you with 4 strategies you can use to navigate lying (and encourage honestly!) in your children with ADHD.

MEET OUR TEAM

We are Lori, Mallory, and Katie. Lori and Mallory are child psychologists, and Katie is a speech language pathologist. We’ve spent decades supporting thousands of families navigating ADHD.

#153: Understanding ADHD in Girls with Psychologist Stephen Hinshaw Apr 22, 2024

Show notes

When people think of ADHD, they often picture the wiggly 6-year-old who struggles to keep his hands to himself and loves making his classmates laugh. We don’t often picture the little girl with a busy brain and loves to talk. For years, girls were overlooked in the research for ADHD. This resulted in a misunderstanding of their need for support. Getting these amazing girls the right treatment as early as possible is paramount for their success. In this episode, we are interviewing Stephen Hinshaw, an expert on ADHD in girls. He shares a summary of a twenty-five-year research study and how to support these amazing girls!

MEET DR. STEPHEN HINSHAW

Stephen Hinshaw is a Distinguished Professor of Psychology at UC Berkeley and Professor of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at UC San Francisco. His research focuses on ADHD (especially in girls and women), self-harm, clinical interventions, and stigma reduction. He has authored over 420 articles and chapters, plus 12 books. His memoir, Another Kind of Madness, was Best Book in Memoir/Autobiography from American BookFest (2018). Among national/international awards: James McKeen Cattell Fellow Award (Association for Psychological Science, 2016); Distinguished Scientific Contributions Award (American Psychological Association, 2020); Sarnat International Prize in Mental Health (National Academy of Medicine, 2020); and induction into the American Academy of Arts and Sciences (2021). His extensive media coverage includes the New York Times, Washington Post, Wall Street Journal, CBS Evening News, Today Show, and more.

Many adults experience a lightbulb moment when they reflect on their educational and social journey. Knowing what they know now sparks a personal process of considering an adult diagnosis.

Our guest today, Holly Blanc Moses, shares her experience of growing up with undiagnosed ADHD and how receiving the diagnosis changed her life.
