Parenting a kid with ADHD takes way more than standard advice; it requires understanding a complex brain difference that impacts focus, sleep, big emotions, and daily energy.In this episode, child psychologist Dr. Emily King and TILT Parenting founder Debbie Reber join Emily to give their perspective on what neurodivergent parenting looks like by challenging the "disorder" label, unpacking why behaviors shift between home and school, and diving into hidden struggles like RSD, time blindness, and burnout.From navigating evaluations to handling the gap between your child's age and their developmental stage, this conversation offers the honest, evidence-based grounding every parent needs.Tune in now, and reach out to Emily Edlynn to learn more about her 1-on-1 parent coaching!Listen and Learn: Should ADHD be framed as a medical disorder or a brain regulation difference?How pathologizing language impacts stigma, diagnosis, and access to support in both clinical and educational settings Why the name "ADHD" is misleading and how the disorder goes far beyond inattention and hyperactivity to affect emotional regulation, sleep, appetite, and energy management How to navigate the ADHD diagnosis process from choosing between a pediatrician and a full neuropsychological evaluation to gathering cross-environment data and shifting parent strategies for lasting behavioral change Overlooked ADHD traits that rarely get covered in formal evaluations and practical strategies to support your child without damaging their self-esteem How ADHD-related time blindness, task avoidance, and a lack of future-oriented thinking drive daily struggles like running late and better understanding your child's neurodivergent experience How emotional sensitivity, sensory processing, and energy regulation manifest in children with ADHD and autism and why a child's behavior can look so drastically different between home and school Why raising a neurodivergent child feels like "advanced parenting," and the deep isolation, constant judgment, and overwhelming family burnout that comes with itResources:https://www.dremilyking.com/The Neurodivergent Learner https://www.learnwithdremily.com/bookhttps://www.learnwithdremily.com/bookhttps://www.instagram.com/emilywkingphd/https://www.facebook.com/emilywkingphdhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/emilywkingphd/https://www.debbiereber.com/Differently Wired: A Parent's Guide to Raising an Atypical Child with Confidence and Hope https://bookshop.org/a/30734/9781523506316https://www.facebook.com/DeborahReberAuthor/https://twitter.com/debbiereber Tilt Parenting Podcast 359 A Conversation with Dr. Emily Edlynn on Raising Autonomous ChildrenEmily Edlynn's website – contact her directly if you are interested in a parent group!

What if some of the things you call your personality are actually patterns you learned in childhood?In this episode of The BLAC Moment, I sit down with Rashida M. Pangabu for an honest conversation about the childhood experiences we carry into adulthood, often without realizing it.We talk about shame, trust, emotional abuse, false accusations, parenting, asking for help, forgiveness, sibling differences, generational patterns, and healing.Why do some adults find it so difficult to apologize?Why can children raised by the same parents grow into completely different adults?Why do some of us struggle to ask for help even when we desperately need it?What happens when parents mistake control for protection?And how do childhood experiences shape the way we trust, communicate, love, parent, and respond to conflict as adults?This isn't a conversation about blaming our parents or remaining trapped in the past.It's about understanding the past well enough to stop unconsciously repeating it.In This ConversationHow childhood experiences follow us into adulthoodThe hidden impact of shameWhy asking for help can feel so difficultWhat false accusations can do to trustEmotional abuse and the wounds people cannot seeWhy some adults struggle to say, “I was wrong”Why siblings can experience the same family completely differentlyThe difference between parental guidance and parental controlWhat happens when children don't feel trusted by their parentsHow childhood experiences affect adult relationshipsBreaking generational patterns instead of passing them onUnderstanding intentions versus understanding impactLearning to trust again after being hurtHealing without pretending the past never happenedBecoming the parent, partner, sibling, or person you consciously choose to beThe Bigger QuestionAt some point, we have to ask ourselves:What did my childhood teach me that I no longer need to carry?Growing older happens automatically.Healing doesn't.Sometimes becoming requires looking honestly at where we came from, understanding what shaped us, keeping what served us, and having the courage to unlearn what didn't.Because the patterns we refuse to confront don't simply disappear.We risk passing them on.BLAC ReflectionEvery leader has a BLAC Moment.Ask yourself:What did I learn about love, trust, shame, conflict, and vulnerability as a child?Which of those lessons still shape my relationships today?What ends with me?This conversation isn't about having a perfect childhood.It's about deciding what kind of adult you want to become despite it.

Four fishermen were doing what fishermen do — casting nets, mending nets, thinking about the next catch. Then Jesus walked by and said two words that changed everything: "Follow me."In Matthew 4:18-22, Jesus calls Simon Peter, Andrew, James, and John before they understand where this is going, before they feel ready, before they've proven anything. He doesn't wait for a resume — He simply invites them into relationship with Himself. And "immediately" — no hesitation, no negotiation — they leave their nets, their boat, even their father, and follow. That same call still reaches ordinary people here in Doral, Miami, Miami Gardens, Hialeah, and across South Florida today.Continuing the "Discipleshift: From Infancy to Adulthood" series, Pastor Ben Kuerth walks through Matthew 4:18-22 to unpack what it actually means to follow Jesus — not information mastered or boxes checked, but a relationship that changes who you become and where you're sent.If you've ever wanted Jesus on your own terms — convenient, comfortable, only when it's beneficial — this message is for you. A disciple isn't defined by how much they know. A disciple is defined by who they follow.

Good grades can open a door — but wisdom determines what your child does after they walk through it.Your child could finish every curriculum, earn good grades, and still walk into adulthood completely unprepared — and most homeschool moms never see it coming until it is too late. The trap is real, and this episode shows you exactly how to avoid it.We are breaking down why good grades are not enough and sharing 2 practical things you can start doing this week to raise kids who are ready for real life, not just the next test:✅Why good grades measure compliance and memory but miss what actually determines adult success✅The difference between knowledge and wisdom — and which one the real world rewards✅What the most influential problem-solvers in history had in common that no test could measure✅ONE dinner table question that trains wisdom starting tonight✅How to stop solving your child's problems & start building real independence insteadClick the link below to join the Raising Leaders Not Followers Early Access List and get up to $150 in bonuses plus a private homeschool chat.Resources for You Raising Leaders Not Followers early access waitlist (FREE fireside chat, FREE Back to School Pack, & up to $150 in bonuses)Show Notes:What If Your Child Got Straight A's and Still Wasn't Prepared for Adulthood?What if your child got straight A's, completed every assignment, finished every curriculum — and still wasn't prepared for adulthood? That would be really sad and scary. And yet, some of us as homeschoolers, that's exactly what we're focused on — getting good grades.But do good grades really prepare your kids for what they need in adult life? When someone is 45 years old and looking for a job, does anyone go back and look at their high school transcript? I don't think so. Real life success and good grades are not the same thing.The Trap Many Homeschool Moms Fall IntoA lot of homeschoolers assume that good grades mean success. Advanced academics, harder and harder curriculum — that'll be a better education. But none of that is automatically true. That's what most of us were taught because we grew up on the conveyor belt. Always checking off the boxes. If we check off all the right boxes, everything will be fine.But many top students struggle when nobody tells them what to do. They can follow really well — but they can't necessarily think for themselves.David Green Started Hobby Lobby in His GarageDavid Green, who founded Hobby Lobby, grew up in a poor family and did not attend college. After high school, he started a business by learning through hard work and hands-on experience. In 1970, he started building frames in his garage and selling them to family and friends. Two years later, in 1972, he founded the first Hobby Lobby store.His business became one of the top privately held retail companies in America. But he didn't build Hobby Lobby by chasing grades or accumulating knowledge. He focused on principles that mattered — honesty, serving customers, treating employees well, and honoring God through his business.The skills that actually grew that company were not good grades. They were vision, perseverance, leadership, problem solving, and the ability to make wise decisions.Education is not only about what someone knows. It's about who they will become and how they will use their giftedness to serve others.What Good Grades Actually MeasureGood grades measure the ability to remember information, complete assignments, follow directions, and perform on a test. Those aren't bad skills — they're just incomplete.Real life requires other types of skills. Making decisions without a teacher or parent nearby. Managing your time. Solving problems. Following God's direction. Leading a family. Evaluating culture through a biblical lens.Your kids may not become CEO of Hobby Lobby or president of the United States, but they will influence the people around them. And almost all of them will grow up to be moms and dads who need to lead their families well. That is what leadership is — influence. Nothing more, nothing less.It's not the ability to pass a test, but the ability to lead well, that will send your kids into adulthood ready for real life.Florence Nightingale Didn't Save Lives With Good GradesDuring the Crimean War, Florence Nightingale arrived at a military hospital where soldiers were dying at alarming rates. Most people assumed the dying was just from wounds. But Florence looked further. She observed what many overlooked — the hospital was filthy. The sewage contaminated the water, ventilation was poor, beds were crowded.Instead of accepting that, she asked — what is causing this problem and how can we fix it? She organized nurses to clean the wards, improve sanitation, increase ventilation, and improve patient care. The death rate plummeted.Florence wasn't remembered for the medical information she knew. She became a leader because she observed, thought critically, and had the courage to do what needed to be done. She revolutionized nursing through observation, leadership, and courage — not through a test score.The Difference Between Knowledge and WisdomKnowledge is knowing facts. Wisdom is the ability to apply truth. Let me give you a few examples.A smart person knows how compound interest works. A wise person avoids unnecessary debt. A smart person can win an argument. A wise person knows when not to argue. A smart person memorizes Bible verses. A wise person lives them out.Louis Pasteur is another great example. In the 1850s and 60s, French winemakers kept losing their wine because it spoiled, and most people just accepted it as the way things were. But Pasteur wasn't satisfied. He started observing under a microscope. He discovered microbes were causing the wine and milk to spoil. He asked how we could stop it. He found that heating the liquid would kill harmful microbes without ruining the taste. That discovery is called pasteurization.Pasteur didn't become influential because he memorized a science textbook. He became influential because he learned how to ask good questions, investigate carefully, and work toward a solution. That's what I want for your kids — to see problems, collect information, observe, think, persevere, and find solutions.What to Do TonightAt dinner this week — and I hope you're eating dinner together — ask your kids one day this week: what decision did you make today, and why did you make that decision? You're training wisdom, not just knowledge. You might be really surprised at what they say.And when your kids are stuck and don't know how to figure something out — don't solve it for them. Ask them — what do you think? Why? Give them a chance to work through it on their own.Good grades can open doors. But wisdom determines what happens after they open that door. The goal isn't academic kids. The goal is prepared adults.That is something we teach in Raising Leaders, Not Followers. Right now, there's an early access opportunity — join the VIP list and you'll get an exclusive private homeschool chat with me to help you become confident this year and make wise decisions for your upcoming school year. You'll also get early access to Raising Leaders and up to $150 in bonuses.The link is in the show notes wherever you're watching or listening.If this meant anything to you, would you please share it with one or two other homeschoolers or in a co-op? And if you're listening on a podcast, it would mean the world to me if you'd leave a five-star review.

Do you often struggle to focus, lose track of time, forget everyday tasks, or feel mentally overwhelmed—only to be told you're lazy, careless, or simply not trying hard enough?For many adults, ADHD goes undiagnosed for years because its signs are often misunderstood or mistaken for personality traits. The result is frustration, self-doubt, and the feeling that something just isn't working the way it should.In this episode of Understanding Adulthood, we explore what ADHD looks like in adults, how it differs from childhood ADHD, and why so many people receive a diagnosis much later in life. We discuss the impact ADHD can have on work, relationships, emotional wellbeing, and daily routines, while also examining the role of social media, the assessment process, treatment options, and practical strategies for managing symptoms.Whether you're questioning your own experiences, supporting someone with ADHD, or simply want to understand the condition better, this episode offers expert insights that replace stigma with understanding.Because understanding yourself is the first step toward finding the support you need.Guest: Dr Purnima nagaraja Host: Sandy Sound: Mahesh R.Producer: Archita Puranik

From Adulthood to Manhood- 5 things you need!

TDA The David Alliance Garth Heckman   The transition to adulthood has changed dramatically. Between the rapid rise of digital technology—which often replaces face-to-face community with screens—and the shifting structures of family and labor, the traditional "scripts" for how to grow up as a man have largely been dismantled. To build a healthy, successful, and purposeful life today, young men should focus on five critical areas of awareness, backed by sociology, psychology, and modern research. 1. Redefining Purpose Beyond the "Sole Provider" Role For generations, the default script for masculinity was simple: be the primary financial provider and protector. As women have rightfully achieved rapid economic and educational progress, that old script has evolved. Many young men now struggle with feeling obsolete or "optional" when they are no longer expected to be the sole breadwinner. Young men need to understand that their value in a family and in a relationship is deeply personal, emotional, and cooperative—not just a paycheck. "The state of feeling unneeded is literally fatal. The best protector against despair is realizing that the world needs you." — Richard Reeves, President of the American Institute for Boys and Men (AIBM) Modern success means learning to be an equal, emotionally present partner and co-creator of a stable home, rather than holding onto an outdated, isolating provider model. 2. Transitioning from "Digital Retreat" to Real-World Agency With the rise of smartphones, immersive video games, online pornography, and social media, it has never been easier to escape the discomfort of real life. Researchers note that while young women struggling with mental health often report higher rates of internal anxiety, young men are more prone to "checking out" entirely—retreating into virtual worlds where they feel a false sense of control. To combat this, young adults must cultivate a mindful, active relationship with technology. The Wise Use Tech Plandeveloped by mental health professionals suggests the Three T's for managing tech: Tracking: Consciously observing how much you use your devices and how you feel afterward. Telling: Sharing your habits and feelings with trusted friends or mentors to build real-world accountability. Tuning In: Asking yourself if you are using screens to escape boredom, social anxiety, or the hard work of building a life. Success in the physical world requires stepping outside the screen, embracing the discomfort of real-world interactions, and taking active ownership of your daily life.

What does it take for young people to thrive? In this first episode of a six-part series, host Gloria Riviera sits down with Lisa Lawson, President and CEO of the Annie E. Casey Foundation and author of Thrive: How the Science of the Adolescent Brain Helps Us Imagine a Better Future for All Children. Lisa makes the case that adolescence is a powerful period of growth, and shares what the science and on-the-ground work tell us about supporting the 48 million young people in America between the ages of 14 and 24. She also introduces the five pillars shaping the path to adulthood that will guide the rest of the series: basic needs, permanent connections, education and credentials, financial stability and well-being, and youth leadership. This episode was made possible with support from the Annie E. Casey Foundation, an organization that develops solutions to build a brighter future for children, youth, families and communities.
