S2E10 | Navigating Stress & Uncertainty: Self-Care Tips for Parents of Autistic & Disabled Kids

Welcoming you to a brand new episode of NeurOrdinary! In this one, I’m getting really real about what it’s like to parent an autistic or disabled child when things feel extra uncertain, especially with all the recent talk about changes to disability funding and support services.This episode is all about finding ways to stay steady and resilient when the world feels shaky. I walk you through practical strategies for self-care and managing stress, including tips for setting healthy boundaries with the endless news cycle, so you can stay informed without burning out. We dig into grounding techniques (shout-out to my favorite, the five-four-three-two-one method!) to help pull you out of the swirl of anxiety and back into the present moment when those “what ifs” get loud.Mindfulness is another big theme, and I share simple ways to weave it into your daily rituals (even five minutes can make a difference!) and give you pointers on how to actually build these habits so they stick. Plus, we talk about community: how connecting with other autism and neurodivergent parents can help lighten the mental load, and how to get involved in advocacy without tipping into burnout.If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, stretched too thin, or just plain exhausted by everything going on, this episode is filled with reminders that you are not powerless, you’re doing enough, and you’re absolutely not alone. Grab your coffee, find a cozy spot, and let’s build some resilience together.* Please note: names used in this podcast may have been changed to protect the identity of my coaching clients and their children.

The Ripple Effect of Self-Care: Transforming Your Family Through You| NeurOrdinary Podcast: S2E9

Hey there! In this episode of NeurOrdinary, I dive into the ripple effect of self-care and why it's not just about pampering yourself—it's a game changer for your whole family. As a self-care and resilience coach, I know how challenging it can be to find time for yourself, especially when you're navigating parenting and neurodivergence.We start with why self-care isn't selfish but essential. You'll hear about Megan, a parent who felt depleted before discovering how small self-care steps could lead to big positive changes in her family life. You'll learn practical strategies for sneaking in those little moments for yourself, like setting boundaries and practicing gratitude.We'll chat about how your emotional regulation can improve when you take even a little bit of time to recharge. Plus, modeling these healthy habits can be a powerful lesson for your kids, teaching them the value of self-care.Being present with your family isn’t always easy when you're exhausted, but self-care helps create meaningful connections and stronger relationships. And remember, the energy you bring to your household sets the tone for everyone else. So, take a breath and find those moments of calm amidst the chaos.Tune in and see how self-care can make a delightful difference in your life and home! Until next time, keep it spicy, and remember, you matter...and so does your self-care.* Please note: names used in this podcast may have been changed to protect the identity of my coaching clients and their children.
