Episode 18 – Conflict

Episode Overview

Ever feel like conflict is a permanent house guest when you’re raising or living with someone who has ADHD? In this episode, we’re getting real about why tensions rise and how to ease them.

I’ll unpack why your child might seem rude or defiant when, in reality, they're overwhelmed, struggling to communicate, or masking their challenges. You’ll get an honest look at how everyday situations can spark misunderstandings and hear practical ways to break those cycles.

From managing more than two-step instructions to the whirlwind of messy bedrooms and missed social cues, I’ll walk you through strategies that actually work. Plus, I’ll share some of my personal experiences and coaching insights on how to create a home environment that fosters understanding and connection.

It’s all about building routines that stick and communication that makes everyone feel heard.
