What’s it really like parenting a child with ADHD and autism? How can parents, teachers, and communities better support neurodivergent children? How do autistic and ADHD individuals experience the world? Each week, we explore these questions with practical strategies, emotional insight, and real stories.
I’m Greer — a mum of two boys (and two dogs!) raising a child with special educational needs (SEN) alongside my husband. Our daily life looks different from the norm, but it’s full of love, advocacy, and growth. I started this podcast to create a space for parents of neurodivergent kids, educators, and allies to learn, connect, and build understanding together.
You’ll hear parenting tips, advocacy guidance, sensory strategies, and personal reflections that shine a light on both the joys and challenges of neurodivergent parenting. Through heartfelt solo episodes and guest interviews, we’ll talk aboutEHCP or IEP processes, school support, emotional regulation, and the big feelings that come with raising ND kids.
Whether you’re here as a parent of an autistic or ADHD child, a late-diagnosed adult, a teacher seeking insight, or someone wanting to understand the neurodivergent world, this podcast is your space to grow, connect, and know you’re not alone.

What if dining out with your autistic child didn’t feel stressful — but safe, supported, and even joyful?
In Myrtle Beach, that dream is already a reality. Thanks to one mom’s advocacy, this coastal city has become a national model for autism-friendly dining and travel.
n this heartfelt episode, Greer talks with Jamie Daskalis — award-winning chef, restaurant owner, autism advocate, and mom to James — about how her son’s diagnosis inspired her to create spaces where every family feels welcome.
Together, they unpack how Myrtle Beach became an autism-certified travel destination and what every community can learn from it.
In this episode, you’ll hear:
Jamie’s journey as a mom navigating autism and early intervention
How small changes make restaurants and businesses more autism-friendly
The story behind the Champion Autism Network and Myrtle Beach’s inclusion movement
Simple, practical ways to build empathy and accessibility in your community
Whether you’re a parent, business owner, or advocate, this episode is a reminder that inclusion starts with understanding — and one person’s voice can spark city-wide change.
