"He’s not trying to be bad—he literally can’t help it."
If you’ve ever felt judged as a parent or overwhelmed by your child’s impulsive behavior, you’re not alone.
In this episode of the Bravely Connected Podcast, I answer a heartfelt question from a parent raising a child with ADHD.
We talk about:
🧠 Why impulse control isn’t just about discipline
💬 How shame-based parenting makes things worse
💡 What it really means to attune to your child (and yourself)
🌱 How to support emotional regulation and rewire the brain—one brave moment at a time
Whether you’re a parent, teacher, or leader, this episode will challenge how you think about behavior and equip you with tools that actually help.
