About Calm Connection Parenting
Ranked in the top 2.5% of podcasts globally! Tired of walking on eggshells… dreading the next meltdown? Exhausted by big emotions. defiance, and disobediance? Wondering why “traditional" parenting advice backfires with your strong-willed child? I’m glad you’re here. This podcast helps you understand what’s behind your child's behavior, so you can respond with calm, stop second-guessing yourself, and build real connection with your neurodivergent or uniquely wired child. Hi, I’m Jami… a mom of seven, professional counselor turned parenting coach, speaker, and author. And yes, even with training, I found myself stuck in the same cycle so many parents live in: meltdown… reaction… guilt… repeat. I was doing all the things that were “supposed” to work… but they didn’t. Everything changed when I stopped treating behavior like the problem and started looking underneath it. When I learned to understand my child’s unique wiring (personality, sensory processing, executive functioning, and emotional needs), I finally had a roadmap. I didn’t need more tips… I needed clarity and a plan. And that clarity changed things. If you’re ready to ditch the overwhelm and stop parenting in survival mode, you’re in the right place. We’ll talk meltdowns, emotional dysregulation, defiance, ADHD, DMDD, anxiety, and more… along with practical steps that help your family move from chaos to calm… one episode at a time. So grab your coffee, find your quiet spot (if you have one), and let’s jump in. Start here: Take the FREE Emotional Forecast Quiz at CalmConnectionParenting.org and find your next best step.

What Does Neurodivergent Mean Anyway? What People Need to Know About Neurodivergence
Published 16 Sept 2026 · Transcript excerpt
[…] And if that's you, I'm glad you're here. This isn't about giving every child another label. It's about increasing understanding, because when we understand our children better, we can respond to them better. So what does neurodivergence really mean? Let's start here. Neurodivergent is not actually a medical diagnosis. It's a broad term that's used to describe people whose brains process, learn, regulate, communicate, or even just experience the world differently from what is considered more typical. And yes, autism can fall under that umbrella, but it's definitely not the only thing. neurodivergent conditions might include autism, ADHD, learning differences like dyslexia, dysgraphia, dyscalculia, and also a growing list of other neurodevelopmental and cognitive profiles.
