Stop Doing It All Alone: ADHD Parenting Support That Brings Your Child Into the Strategies Too

If you’re parenting a child with ADHD (or you’re late-diagnosed yourself), it can feel like you’re constantly trying to “figure it out” — schedules, school, food, sleep, behaviour, emotions… all of it.

In this episode, Greer talks with Dr. Jennifer Dall about approaching ADHD through a whole-person lens: not as a “fix,” but as support for real life. They unpack why the basics (sleep, movement, food, connection) matter so much — and how to build strategies with your child so it doesn’t all sit on your shoulders.

What we cover

Why “whole body” support matters for ADHD day-to-day

The question that can change everything: “What do I need right now?”

How sleep, food, water, movement, and connection can shape emotional regulation

Letting go of perfection (and the guilt) — and choosing supports that fit your life

How to start including your child in problem-solving so they build self-advocacy over time

Helping kids understand ADHD in an age-appropriate way (and giving them time to process)

A gentle takeaway

You’re not failing. This is a learning process — for you and your child — and small shifts can make a big difference.
