Journey With Me Through ADHD: A Podcast for Kids


This podcast will speak straight to the heart and mind of a child impacted by ADHD. It's a helpful conversational tool that can be used by families and educators. This podcast was created so those in my ADHD world never have to feel alone! 

Apr 8, 2022

Our busy brains love technology because it gives us some of the things we crave...It provides a dose of dopamine, it triggers that imaginitive state of mind, and ignites that superpower of hyperfocus as it taps into an interest we have! This sparks joy and even can be a way we find our "calm" at times! 

The problem lies when it becomes TOO MUCH! Too much of anything can be dangerous. It can lead to emotional dysregulation, irritabilty, and can affect our sleep (which can heighten ADHD symptoms). 

In this episode, you will hear from a few kiddos with ADHD who share how they feel when they are on their favorite technology device. I follow up this common thread of joy filled responses with how we can still enjoy technology while also created boundtries and coming up with a plan for when it is used. Creating a fun contract may be a great way to decrease frustrations with established boundries. Being mindful of technology before bed is the last take away I encourage as a helpful tool as we find ways to calm our mind and body down before falling asleep! 

I hope this episode is a helpful conversational tool. Please know that it's meant to act as a jumpstart to finding what works best for your family! Please let me know if you have any questions or share what worked best for you!

Sending love and support always!
