Alright, ADHD parents, this episode is a must-listen! We’re sitting down with Dr. Nerissa Bauer, a board-certified behavioral pediatrician, ADHD advocate, and parenting expert who is changing the game for families like ours.

She’s been featured in academic journals, major media, and national conferences, and she’s built innovative parenting courses that actually work—because ADHD parenting takes way more than sticker charts and wishful thinking.

In this episode, we’re diving into:
🔹 Why understanding ADHD is about more than just managing symptoms
🔹 The power of connection over correction in parenting

ADHD parents, let’s be honest—how are we supposed to keep a routine for our ADHD kids when we can’t even remember where we put our phone (or our sanity)? If consistency feels like an impossible dream and your best-laid plans always end up buried under a pile of laundry, this episode is for you.

Today, we’re breaking down ADHD-friendly systems that actually work—even when your brain is running purely on caffeine and vibes.
