About SEND - PARENTING - BALANCE

Hi, I am a parent to three children, all of which have special needs including Autism, ADHD, Sensory Processing Disorder, ARFID and PDA. Although, I am now a full time carer to the children, I have come from an extensive background and education in family support. I am now a SEND advocate and share my honest and non judgemental experiences and advice. Join me for the journey! It is an exhausting but rewarding one!

   Helping your child find their authentic, unmasked, confident self.

   My daughter, Emily, aged 14 (nearly 15) with AuDHD transformed from a girl who would people please to the point of social anxiety, would have social panic attacks, compare herself to others, have low self esteem, mask and reach burnout from trying to fit in with others to a girl who is her authentic, confident, unmasked self. How did we do it? Over 12 months with lots of small strategies in which I share in this podcast. Come along for the journey as we uncover masking, mistakes, people pleasing, boundaries, social groups, trusting intuitions, whether we feel clever and how to find ourselves in a mainstream society that values conformity and people pleasing.
