Hey Momma. If you've ever looked at your child mid-meltdown and thought, "Why is this so hard?"—this episode is for you. This week on The Sensory Savvy Mama, I sat down with the brilliant Bettina for an unscripted, soul-nourishing conversation that explores the raw, real intersections of motherhood, neurodivergence, and the healing journey so many of us don’t expect to begin after having kids. Together, we unpack: Why your child’s behavior might actually be reflecting your unmet needs The unraveling (and unmasking) that happens when neurodivergent mothers step into parenting What postpartum really feels like when you're carrying invisible sensory needs How professional expertise often doesn’t prepare you for the identity quake of becoming a mom Why it's not about "fixing" your child—but honoring the dyad unit of you and your little one Tiny, nervous system–aligned shifts that can create massive peace in your home This one feels like sitting down with a cup of something warm and being seen—deeply. ✨ Mentioned in this episode: Bettina Lopez Lam @beeingaudhd and @notatigermompodcast The Sensory Blueprint: your personalized roadmap to peaceful, connected parenting.
