    What Looks Like Misbehavior Might Be Something Else Entirely, with Lisa Shanken What if the behavior you're seeing isn't defiance, laziness, or a phase, but a sign of something happening underneath?  I'm Dr. Shelly Mahon, your host. In this episode we sit down with Lisa Shanken, executive functioning coach and founder of Tri-Wellness, to unpack what's really going on for kids who struggle with focus, follow-through, emotional regulation, and independence, including neurodivergent kids and those navigating ADHD, autism, anxiety, and more. Lisa brings over two decades of experience as a health counselor, personal trainer, yoga instructor, and executive functioning coach, and she breaks down how working memory, impulse control, and cognitive flexibility show up in daily life. She also explains why the mind-body connection, emotional regulation, and firm-but-loving boundaries matter just as much as any system or chart.  In This Episode, We Cover The three tenets of executive functioning: Working memory, impulse control, and cognitive flexibility How to tell the difference between a real deficit and “typical” kid behavior The connection between executive functioning and mental health: ADHD, autism, anxiety, and depression The impact of screens and phones on confidence, social skills, and concentration When to seek a neuropsych evaluation The role of emotional regulation in daily functioning, and why sitting with discomfort matters How to act from a loving place while still holding firm boundaries The mind-body connection: how food, sleep, movement, and socialization shape behavior Building independence in kids by giving them real responsibility A Line Worth Remembering “Giving a child responsibilities leads to independence. If you can follow through with the responsibilities I give you, then I trust you to make some of your own decisions. Start small and build on this.” Resources Mentioned & Related Reading Tri-Wellness: Lisa Shanken's practice Social Bloom & Love Bloom: Lisa's programs for building social confidence and relationships in neurodivergent-friendly environments Understood.org: Resources on ADHD, learning differences, and neurodiversity CHADD: Children and Adults with ADHD Child Mind Institute: Anxiety, emotional regulation, and guidance on neuropsych evaluations Smart but Scattered by Peg Dawson & Richard Guare: Executive functioning basics for parents The Whole-Brain Child and No-Drama Discipline by Daniel Siegel & Tina Payne Bryson: emotional regulation and boundary-setting Common Sense Media: Screen time guidance by age

    No, Not Everybody Needs a Therapist: Amy Morin on America's Epidemic of Mental Weakness

    Keen On Democracy

    “Not everybody needs therapy. I'm a therapist and I'll tell you first.” — Amy Morin Is an epidemic of mental weakness sweeping America? Readers of the Wall Street Journal certainly might think so, given a couple of recent articles. In one, it reports on burnt-out singles who are using spreadsheets to evaluate their dates. In the other, young adults are taking their phones to social events and letting AI do their talking. Sad. So I invited Ms Mental Strength herself, Amy Morin — host of the Mentally Stronger podcast and author of The Mental Strength Playbook — to ask what's happened to American self-confidence in our AI age. Morin sees it daily in her own therapy office with patients relying on ChatGPT to set boundaries with their mothers-in-law. In a world of information overload, she argues, we've come to believe there must be a medical solution to all our complexities — forgetting that relationships are an art, not a science, and that conflict and awkward silences are features of human life rather than bugs. So the dinner-party guests who sneak off with their pocket supercomputers to the bathroom to ask ChatGPT for five “interesting” questions come back with canned questions that make them sound even less interesting. In contrast, Morin argues, real social confidence is built by taking risks. And it's no longer a risk, she suggests, to go to a therapist. It's become the equivalent of slinking into the bathroom with your phone to prompt conversation. Yes, this therapist worries we live in an overly therapeutic culture. Anxiety is normal, Morin says. But ADHD diagnoses and even autism have become a kind of moral passport in America. It's almost as if people should be anxious if they're not anxious. Her prescription is free. Not even the cost of a therapy session. Ask yourself, at the end of every day, what did I do today to grow mentally stronger? It's like going to the gym. Build up your mental strength. Become self-reliant. The standard American fix. That will kick your therapy habit. That will end the epidemic of mental weakness now engulfing the United States. Five Takeaways •       AI Is Doing Our Talking. The Wall Street Journal reports singles running spreadsheets on their dates and young adults letting AI script their conversations in person — and Morin sees the same thing in her therapy office, where clients ask ChatGPT how to set boundaries with their in-laws. The root, she argues, is information overload: because we can look up how to fix a sink, we assume there's a scientific way to reject a suitor or confront a friend. But relationships are an art, not a science. There is supposed to be tension; conflict isn't horrible; real human conversations — with questions, uncertainty, and lulls — are essential. What could be more important than managing your own relationships yourself?•       Avoidance Never Builds Confidence. The dinner-party guest who hides in the bathroom asking ChatGPT for five interesting questions comes out asking canned questions and listening to no one — panicking about what was next on the list. Relying on technology for what makes us insecure, Morin argues, is avoidance dressed as help: skills we don't practice diminish, so the app makes us worse, not better. Nor is the polished online persona sustainable — like fake photos on a dating profile, the eloquence collapses at the second coffee. Connection comes from vulnerability, not perfection: “I really struggle with X” bonds people; the perfect question does not.•       Thirteen Things, Fifty Million Readers. Morin's authority is autobiographical. Her mother died when she was 23; on the third anniversary of that death, her 26-year-old husband died of a heart attack; later her father-in-law received a terminal cancer diagnosis. On one of the worst days of her life she wrote herself a letter — 13 things mentally strong people don't do — and read it over and over. Published online for what she assumed would be five readers, it reached fifty million and became seven books in more than 45 languages. Mental strength, she learned, isn't resilience-as-bracing: it's getting the most out of life on the emotional roller coaster — good times included.•       Not Everybody Needs Therapy. Asked whether we live in an overly therapeutic culture, this therapist says yes. Anxiety is a normal emotion — without it you wouldn't look both ways — but pandemic-era applause for disclosure watered down the difference between sadness and clinical depression, awkwardness and social anxiety disorder. TikTok quizzes hand out ADHD; “burnout” now means tired; autism risks becoming a passport; and self-diagnosis becomes self-fulfilling prophecy. Meanwhile 96 percent of college students say they arrived academically prepared — and most say they arrived emotionally unprepared. As editor-in-chief of Verywell Mind, Morin went undercover on the online-therapy platforms: some therapists were excellent; others gave canned advice that frightened her. And the worried well, she warns, clog the six-month waiting lists the seriously ill cannot afford.•       Your Body Believes What Your Brain Tells It. The Guardian's Emma Beddington recently asked whether Morin's “power phrases” could turn a self-described spineless worm into a go-getter. Answer: yes — walk into a room thinking nobody likes me and your body language obliges; walk in resolved to do your best and it obliges again. Nobody changes their life by sitting on the couch thinking positive — action is required — but thought is the first step. Her daily practice: ask, what did I do today to grow mentally stronger? And the anger all around us? How we treat others reflects how we feel about ourselves — the troll's cruelty is a quick boost for a self he can't stand. Technology, finally, cuts both ways: never has expert advice been this free. Feed your mind well or feed it junk. Up to you. About the Guest Amy Morin is a psychotherapist, mental strength trainer, and internationally bestselling author whose books — including 13 Things Mentally Strong People Don't Do — have sold more than a million copies in over 45 languages.

Nick shares how differences between his sons became clear during COVID lockdown homeschooling, leading to one child's autism diagnosis at age four, and how a second child's ADHD became more apparent after breaking his femur and losing physical outlets like sport. They discuss day-to-day family strategies such as running for self-regulation, setting device limits and screen lock times, bedtime wind-down routines, and sleep supports including slowrelease melatonin.

    Pick up a copy of The Mental Strength Playbook. Do you think you lack willpower? Whether you can't stop snacking or you keep checking your ex's Instagram, bad habits can be tough to break. But what if willpower isn't your problem? What if it's an environmental problem that you can actually fix? Some of the things I talk about are: Why willpower is a limited resource—and how you burn through it hundreds of times a day without realizing it. The 2025 Microsoft study on how many times the average worker gets interrupted in a single day. Why the people who break bad habits don't actually have more discipline than everyone else. The simple friction tricks that make temptation harder to reach—from the cookie shelf to your saved credit card. How I keep my own phone from hijacking my writing (and why it's not about discipline at all). My client who was sure she had ADHD—and the creative 15% solution that changed her whole workday. The three simple steps to build a temptation blocker for whatever is draining your energy. Why fixing your environment is about being more present in the moments that matter.

    What if the biggest breakthroughs in mental health have nothing to do with chemicals—and everything to do with electricity? In this fascinating conversation, Darin sits down with psychophysiology and brain mapping specialist Rebecca Bassam to explore the electrical nature of the human brain. After surviving multiple traumatic brain injuries herself, Rebecca dedicated her life to understanding how brainwave patterns influence everything from ADHD and anxiety to depression, PTSD, focus, emotional regulation, and peak performance. Together they discuss why traditional mental health often overlooks the brain itself, how brain mapping identifies dysfunctional patterns, why social media instantly pushes us into fight-or-flight, and the promising future of personalized neurotechnology using microcurrent, neurofeedback, biofeedback, light therapy, and frequency-based interventions. If you've ever wondered whether your brain can truly heal, this episode offers an entirely new perspective on what's possible.

    Childhood anxiety is on the rise. Parents are often unsure how to respond, and in their well-intentioned efforts to reassure their kids, can sometimes reinforce the anxious patterns. In this interview Kristen McNeely, LMFT, explains how parents can start to help their kids build resilience by taking small, manageable steps toward the things that might scare them. We also discuss school refusal—why it's more complicated than simply not wanting to go to school; the warning signs parents should watch for; and why collaboration between parents, schools, and mental health professionals is essential. Kristen explains why school refusal often begins with school avoidance, how transition years like kindergarten and middle school increase risk, and why pulling kids out of school is rarely an effective long-term solution. Amy, Margaret, and Kristen also discuss: Why parental accommodations can unintentionally fuel anxiety The difference between validating feelings and reinforcing fear Why gradual exposure works better than avoidance The four common drivers of school refusal How ADHD, autism, and separation anxiety can increase risk Why helping kids feel connected to their school community matters How parent-focused treatments like SPACE can improve childhood anxiety—even without the child in therapy sessions Here's where you can find Kristen: https://kristenmcneely.com/ @childhood.empowered on IG https://schoolcapable.kristenmcneely.com/ What Fresh Hell is co-hosted by Amy Wilson and Margaret Ables.

She was diagnosed ADHD at 53, and she is Autistic too, and proud! Her brother is undiagnosed AuDHD and her home growing up was dictated by anger and violence. She was always considered the 'normal" child in the family, but her high sensitivity meant that she became the responsible one, taking on the people pleaser role of the family dynamic.Freya's son is diagnosed AuDHD, dyslexic, dysgraphic. Her daughter undiagnosed AuDHD. Raising them was a constant battle of advocacy, being gaslit by the system, her own struggle to accept the diagnosis.Freya has created a technique called The White Room. A visualization that helps a person reclaim what was lost in interactions with others.  It's a kind of soul retrieval, without needing to be spiritual. It's a very grounded exercise, that once a person knows how to do it, they can do the visualization by themselves. Freya is working as a Therapist (Psychology, Social Work, Counseling and Animal Assisted Psychotherapy) in Victoria, Australia.Insta: @freyas_farm_ballaratFacebook: Freya's Farm: Animal Assisted TherapyTiktok: @freyas_farmSupport the show

What if many ADHD symptoms aren't just ADHD—but signs of a nervous system stuck in fight or flight? In this episode, I sit down with therapist and ADHD expert Jenna Free to explore a different way of understanding adult ADHD. We discuss why ADHD nervous system regulation can be more effective than relying on productivity hacks alone, how chronic fight-or-flight impacts executive functioning, and why slowing down—not pushing harder—may actually help you get more done.

    Welcome to Episode 318 of Autism Parenting Secrets. Many parents enter this journey searching for the next therapy, treatment, supplement, or breakthrough intervention.  While those approaches can absolutely help, Dr. Kurt Woeller believes one of the most common mistakes is pursuing advanced therapies before establishing the foundations that allow them to work.

In this conversation, he shares the Four Pillars that he believes should remain at the center of every biomedical program: diet, foundational nutrients, gut health, and methylation.  He also explains why individualized investigation, thoughtful testing, and consistent implementation matter far more than chasing the latest trend.

What she remembers is not the drinking. It is the relief.She started drinking heavily as a teenager and kept going for decades. From the outside she looked successful and high functioning, right up until late 2017, when the wheels came off the cart and she found herself in inpatient detox.She got sober. Then she waited five more years to find out why she had been drinking in the first place. Faye was diagnosed with ADHD at 48, and suddenly the chaos, the burnout, the emotional intensity, the boredom, and the constant need to switch her brain off all made sense. Alcohol had not come out of nowhere. It had been doing a job.Faye is now a certified grey area drinking coach and ADDCA certified ADHD coach with degrees in psychology and counselling, and she has spoken at TEDx and SXSW. She founded Untoxicated, which grew into Australia's largest alcohol-free social community back when being sober was decidedly uncool.In this episode, Tracy and Faye get into grey area drinking and why the all-or-nothing label keeps people stuck, what alcohol is actually doing in an ADHD brain, the mummy wine culture that was sold to women on purpose, and why the carrot works where the stick never will.If you have ever needed a drink to get your brain to be quiet, this conversation is not here to shame you.

Before a life-threatening crash landed her in the hospital with a cortisol level of "less than one," Sarah was taking straight shots of soy sauce out of the fridge, dumping salt into her morning water, and getting told by urgent care doctors that her slurred words and sudden vomiting were probably just a "depressive episode."

    Do you feel pressured to post on social media daily to keep your coaching business alive? Visibility in coaching doesn't depend on daily social media posts. There is an alternative: collaborative visibility strategies that create evergreen, compounding results instead of content with a 24-hour shelf life. Today's conversation draws a clear line between marketing and coaching, unpacking a full visibility-to-client ecosystem of getting seen in the right adjacent spaces, using a genuine lead magnet to build an email community, and nurturing that community into coaching clients without relying on sales tactics. Ready to change your thinking about visibility as a coach? Join us to learn more about thriving in your space without being enslaved to daily social media posts.Polly Pollock is a speaker, published author, and the founder of Neuropreneur Rising. She mentors coaches with ADHD and busy brains toward capacity-conscious marketing, redefining consistency as regular, intentional action toward a specific result rather than a daily habit. To sum it up, Polly's philosophy is that weekly intention matters more in marketing than the daily social media grind.Show Highlights:Challenging your thinking around consistencyThree filters for choosing a visibility strategy: niche-specific spaces, alignment with your strengths, and honoring your real-life capacityFocus on collaborative visibility: podcast appearances, guest teaching/speaking, and leading workshops.Time management strategies: use time blocking and replace worn-out marketing strategies with high-leverage activities that align with your unique strengths“We have the hardest time with consistency in doing something we hate. If we enjoy it, it's easier to be consistent.”Polly's best tip for getting started with podcast guesting: Make sure you know exactly who your ideal client is and what podcasts they are listening to. (Find the space where you can resonate with those who need what you are offering.)Pitching without AI: Authentic, researched pitches that lead with value win over generic, templated outreach.Leading with value is the most important starting point in business, marketing, and sales.Strategically using lead magnets to build your email community (“Give before you get.”)Understanding the visibility-to-client ecosystem in today's worldPolly's key takeaway: “Send one pitch to a podcast, company, or community in which you want to teach and share value.”Resources:Connect with Polly Pollock: Website, Instagram, and The Anti-Social Marketing Kit (FREE with code “STAR”)Connect with Meg:Explore our mentor program!

It's one of the most transformative investments you can make in yourself and your coaching. I've taught or mentored over 2000 coaches, and I hear the same thing again and again. I came because I had to, and I am so glad that I did. Coaches tell me they walk away with renewed energy, deeper confidence and a community of peers who genuinely support each other. Here's what you need to know right now. Mentor coaching must span a minimum of three months, so the time to start is not when your credential is just about to expire. And if you complete your hours in 2026, you get ahead of the upcoming ICF changes, which means peace of mind along with skill development. My fall cohort is already filling up.

    Bedtime shouldn't feel like a nightly hostage negotiation, but sleep crutches can sneak in fast. One more snack. One more kiss. One more trip to the bathroom. And before you know it, you're spending hours managing a routine that keeps expanding while everyone gets less sleep. I'm Flora McCormick, a licensed therapist and parenting coach, and I'm walking you through how to spot the sleep crutch that's driving your bedtime battles and what to do next with kindness and firmness.We dig into why these patterns are so sticky: your child's brain learns, “I need this external thing to fall asleep,” and every time we provide it, the belief gets stronger. The goal here isn't harsh discipline or letting fear run the show. It's helping your child build the muscles of falling asleep and returning to sleep on their own.And for more details on this practical roadmap, check out our episode on "Sleep Strategies to End Bedtime Battles": https://sustainableparenting.com/how-to-end-bedtime-battles-and-get-your-nights-back/Friend the outline for today is simple. 1. Be willing to suffer with a purpose (because change can be hard before it gets better), 2. Create a three-step plan your child can follow when they feel scared or restless,3. Use a "teach, practice, praise" system so the skill actually sticks. I also point you to a free progressive muscle relaxation tool that I share with clients because it works, especially for kids who struggle with nighttime anxiety.  Here it is! https://youtu.be/cDKyRpW-Yuc?si=uyRn8p_rpNICTsy_And don't miss next week's guest conversation on ADHD and why the real issue may be executive functioning more than “attention.” Subscribe, share this with a tired parent friend, and leave a review so more families can find calmer nights.✨Want more?  ✨JOIN me in the SUMMER of support:

    Out of Sight, Out of Mind: How ADHD Object Permanence Leaks Money From Your Business

    The Driven Woman

    ‍Welcome back to ADHD-ish! In this episode, host Diann Wingert closes out the five-part solo series, “Reframing ADHD Traits as Business Strategies.” Today's focus: the ADHD challenge of “out of sight, out of mind”—a.k.a. ADHD Object Permanence—and how it quietly drains money from your business. This is one of the most misunderstood ADHD strengths and struggles, and understanding it transforms your revenue.Most people learned about object permanence as a developmental milestone in infants: it's the reason peekaboo is so mind-blowing for toddlers. But for adults with ADHD, it's not about missing a childhood milestone—it's a “functional glitch” that endures throughout adulthood.ADHD Object Permanence challenges aren't about immaturity; they're directly connected to how ADHD working memory functions differently from neurotypical brains.If something isn't visible—literally in your line of sight—your ADHD brain tends to forget it exists. In business, this means things like overdue follow-ups, unrevived client relationships, or forgotten services gather dust. This is one of the core ADHD strengths and struggles that impacts your bottom line.Where Are You Leaking Money? ‍I break it down into three layers:1. Past Clients: Amazing people who loved working with you, would buy again, and just need a nudge. But if they're not in your calendar or inbox—they don't exist to your brain. Your ADHD working memory isn't the problem; your system is.2. Leads in the ‘Dark Pipeline': Warm prospects you were this close to converting…now forgotten until you randomly find that old email weeks later (and then feel the shame spiral). ‍This is ADHD Object Permanence in action—out of sight, completely out of mind.3. Your Own Offers: Courses, workshops, or services you actually could be selling—but forgot you even have. How many revenue streams are invisible because of ADHD Object Permanence?What's the Fix? Structural Visibility ‍Don't go buying a new planner or promising to “try harder.” That's not a strategy—it's just more stress. Instead, build software (aka systems!) around your brain's “hardware” constraints. This is how you turn ADHD strengths and struggles into actionable business strategy.Here's How: ‍● Use a CRM to remember leads for you—don't let your ADHD working memory be your only sales tool! This is structural support for ADHD Object Permanence.● Block off time every week to review offers, check in on clients, and nudge those dark leads back into the light. Regular visibility beats relying on memory.● Pre-schedule re-engagement emails for past clients + warm leads. Automation handles what ADHD Object Permanence makes invisible.Where to start: ‍Don't overhaul everything at once. Pick one area—past clients, dark leads, or forgotten offers—and add a single piece of visibility this week. ‍It could be as simple as pulling your last 20 clients into a spreadsheet or writing a list of every product you currently offer. The important part is making invisible opportunities visible again. This is how you leverage ADHD strengths and struggles for revenue growth.Mentioned in this episode: ‍Laura Schulte - LinkedIn ‍The Pipeline Compounder Kit email marketing platform (affiliate link) ‍ ‍Other episodes in the Reframing ADHD Traits as Business Strategy series: ‍Ep #315: How Successful ADHD Entrepreneurs Trigger Hyperfocus on Demand ‍Ep #317: Time Blindness is a Pricing Problem, Not Just a Productivity Problem ‍Ep #321: The Recurring Revenue Trap: The Hidden Cost of Stable IncomeEp #323: What Procrastination, Resistance & Avoidance are Trying to Tell You About Your Business ‍Your ADHD-ish ™ host, Diann Wingert Diann Wingert is a business strategist, coach, serial entrepreneur, former psychotherapist, and passionate thought leader at the intersection of ADHD and entrepreneurship.

    ClutterBug - Organize, Clean and Transform your Home

    Hey Clutterbugs! This is the ultimate dopamine-boosting, motivation-pumping, task-crushing podcast for when you need to clean, declutter, organize, or tackle ANY boring task.If you have ADHD, are neurodivergent, or just struggle to do mundane things like dishes, laundry, or cleaning - this podcast is for you. We need energy, urgency, and hype to get through boring tasks. Doing mundane things can feel IMPOSSIBLE. I'm not even talking about a week's worth of dishes that's overwhelming - it could be three plates that just need to be put in the dishwasher. Why does this feel so hard? Our brain sees it and we have a big fat nope and we scroll TikTok instead. The reality is we are not built to do slow, boring, mundane things day in and day out. We're hunters, not farmers. So all of these tasks can feel like absolute torture.But here's the truth: We're not lazy. We're just under-stimulated. We gotta find the hacks. We need dopamine. We need to change our day from drudgery into tiny little punches of happiness and serotonin and reward so that we actually WANT to do these things. We feel excited and we keep going. This is how we become super productive people. So work with me as we make our way through six mini challenges in today's podcast!
