Something's going on with your kid. Maybe you have a diagnosis, maybe you don't, but it feels like someone should be able to help you make it all easier. In this episode of Parenting with Impact, Elaine and Diane look back at what they wish they'd known when they started parenting their own neurodivergent kids: how it’s a long game, how you'll end up as the expert in your child, and why it’s so important for relationship to come first. If you're at the start of your ADHD parenting journey (or wish you could start over), hit play—then pass it along to a parent who needs it.

What to expect in this episode:

• You’ll learn why so many capable professionals feel competent at work but uncertain at home, and why that gap is understandable.
• Elaine and Diane explain how familiar workplace leadership skills, like empowering team members, building trust, and giving people agency, can transfer directly to parenting complex kids.
• You’ll hear why “onboarding your kids to adulthood” from ages 18 to 25 takes the pressure off getting everything right today.
• Elaine names asking for and accepting help as the single most important life skill for kids and adults, and shares how parents can start modeling it now.
• The episode closes with a practical mindset shift: parent from inspiration instead of desperation, and lean into hope.
