• Painting with a Hammer: Tools That Actually Help Neurodivergent Kids
    Jan 19 2026

    Ever feel like you're doing everything "right"—and still nothing is working with your neurodivergent child?


    In this episode, Emily sits down with Kate, a homeschool mom of three, whose youngest was recently diagnosed with autism and ADHD. Kate shares what parenting looked like when she didn’t have the right tools—how it felt like trying to paint with a hammer—and what changed when she finally found strategies that actually worked.


    You’ll hear:

    1. The daily struggles of emotional meltdowns and constant dysregulation

    2. What finally helped her son and her whole family find more calm and connection

    3. How a 6-week kids' class shifted their entire family culture

    4. Why understanding sensory needs and nervous system regulation was the missing piece


    This episode is raw, relatable, and full of hope—especially for any parent who’s tired of trying harder with no results.

  • School Refusal, Punishments & Consequences for Neurodivergent Kids
    Jan 5 2026

    Two twin boys. One chaotic morning. And the moment Ashley almost reverted to her old parenting patterns—but didn't.


    Instead, she got curious. She collaborated. And she used logical consequences that actually taught skills instead of bringing shame.


    This episode is packed with real-life examples of emotional health tools in action with ADHD kids. You'll hear exactly what Ashley said, how she regulated herself first, and what happened when she chose curiosity over control.

  • Breaking Christmas “Rules” (on purpose)
    Dec 22 2025

    Society has normalized the idea that mothers should work themselves to the breaking point during the holidays — that if they’re not burnt out, they’re doing it wrong.


    But what if this year could be different?


    In this raw and real episode, Emily Hamblin — neurodivergent mom of four and emotional health coach — reads “Funny, Funny Mother” (yes, through tears) and then rewrites the narrative. She gives listeners permission to let things go, to choose what really matters, to stop trying to control everyone else’s emotions, and to model what an emotionally healthy mother looks like.
