Parenting a complex, or neurodivergent, child is full of its own unique challenges and obstacles that add onto the many routine challenges we already face as parents everyday.

When we don't know how to support our children in the best way, or don't understand the why behind our children's behavior, we often get caught up in a cycle of stress, frustration, overwhelm, and anger.

The key to breaking the stress cycle is to gain a deeper understanding of why our children do what they do and gather the right tools for guiding them in a way that makes sense for them.

In this episode, Heather sits down with parenting coach Diane Dempster to discuss how to best guide and facilitate neurodiverse ("neuro-spicy" as Diane likes to call it!) children in shifting difficult behavior and finding better ways to cope.

Come join in the conversation to discover how you can lead your complex child more effectively from a place of true calm, mindfulness, and grace!
