Podcasts about hyperactivity

This is an audio version of a white broad series covering inhibition/thalamic reticular nucleus. See the video to follow along.This episode provides a detailed exploration of the thalamic reticular nucleus (TRN), the inhibitory "shell" surrounding the thalamus that acts as a sensory gate in the brain. Drawing on prior episodes, it explains how abnormalities in TRN development—linked to factors like Sonic Hedgehog signaling knockouts, reduced parvalbumin interneurons, and genes such as CNTNAP2—contribute to the excitation-inhibition imbalance central to autism. The TRN regulates sensory input access (visual, auditory, somatosensory), attention modulation, sleep-wake cycles, and overload protection; in autism, its dysfunction leads to sensory overload, hyperactivity, repetitive behaviors, and social challenges, while offering strengths like accelerated learning, intense focus, and enhanced visual thinking due to heightened inner-directed processing.83: Thalamic Reticular Nucleus (TRN), Sensory Gating & Autism https://youtu.be/cjwbog7Rk4c?si=R3Nq3Hs5A0M_7Vts 82: Sonic Hedgehog & Inhibitory Neurons in Autism https://youtu.be/Oee4L7Vsj4E?si=rG2T8R9AIYAnDBw7 76: Parvalbumin Interneurons & the Autistic Phenotype https://youtu.be/PBHVssvoQkM?si=saFvjVx9Bjq610pk Also see the Visual Thinking episodes, but White Broad Series coming to cover those in more detail.Daylight Computer Company, use "autism" for $50 off at https://buy.daylightcomputer.com/autismChroma Light Devices, use "autism" for 10% discount at https://getchroma.co/?ref=autismFig Tree Christian Golf Apparel & Accessories, use "autism" for 10% discount at https://figtreegolf.com/?ref=autismCognity AI for Autistic Social Skills, use "autism" for 10% discount at https://thecognity.com00:00 Introduction, Episode Recap, TRN Overview02:45 TRN Anatomy Drawing, Thalamus Structure and Shell05:18 Sonic Hedgehog Role, Knockout Models in Development10:48 Cell Types in TRN, Parvalbumin vs Somatostatin Functions15:19 TRN Sectors, Sensory Inputs (Visual/Auditory/Somatosensory) Access20:37 Cortical Connections, Layer 6 Feedback and Crosstalk25:04 Mini-Columns Recap, Thalamus to Layer 4 Processing29:56 Prefrontal Cortex Mapping, Adaptive Responses Role34:22 TRN Functions: Attention Modulation, Sleep-Wake Regulation36:22 CNTNAP2 Discussion, Knockout Phenotypes (Hyperactivity, Seizures)38:45 Strengths/Weaknesses: Accelerated Learning, Visual Thinking Benefits42:18 Overload Protection, Hyperactivity, Social/Repetitive Challenges46:30 Conclusion, Autism as "Self," Inner-Directed ProcessingX: https://x.com/rps47586YT: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCGxEzLKXkjppo3nqmpXpzuAemail: info.fromthespectrum@gmail.com

Episode 114 – Hyperactivity – HSHA - Hyperkinesis   This is quite a big episode and a very interesting topic - definitely one that I am hearing more conversations and questions about. In this episode, I will talk about the "classification" of hyperactivity – what it is, what it is not, the differential diagnoses that need to be considered before declaring a diagnosis of hyperactivity or hyperkinesis and how to actually narrow down that diagnosis.   I talk about a wonderful document that was designed by Dr Karen Overall and her team, which addresses some of the differential diagnoses and their corresponding behavioural signs  - see the document here: https://vth.upei.ca/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/Behaviour-Tips_Active-dogs_final.pdf   And, I discuss treatment protocols and psychopharmacological interventions that can be used to help these patients. Please see here the paper by Dr Stephane Bleuer-Elsner that I mention in the podcast: Bleuer-Elsner, S., Muller, G., Beata, C., Zamansky, A. and Marlois, N., 2021.

In youth, binge eating is often marked by loss of control eating (LOC-E), defined as difficulty stopping eating and persistent, compulsive food-seeking behaviors that occur even in the absence of physical hunger. In this podcast, Dr. Aaron Keshen discusses his article, titled, "Reduction of Loss of Control Eating in Youth With Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder Following Initiation of Stimulant Medication: A Prospective Study." In their article, the authors describe a prospective observational study that aimed to examine changes in LOC-E over a 3-month period in youth with comorbid attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder and LOC-E who initiated stimulant medication.   The other authors are Colby Price, Elena Koning, Anastasia L. Harris, Nami Trappenberg, Anja Hilbert, Sara Bartel, Jill Chorney, Laura Dixon, Joseph Sadek, Guido K.W. Frank, Victoria Taylor, Wanda Rasmussen, Hanif Chatur, Drew Yamada, and Stuart B. Murray. The article is published in the January-February 2026 issue of The Journal of Clinical Psychopharmacology. doi: 10.1097/JCP.0000000000002106

00:45 A coronal mass ejection from a distant starResearchers have detected what they say is the strongest evidence yet of a coronal mass ejection (CME) coming from a star other than our Sun. CMEs are massive bursts of fast-moving plasma that can be detected thanks to the characteristic radio signal they produce. However, despite decades of searching, these signals have only been identified from the Sun. Now a team has identified a similar signal coming from a distant star in the Milky Way. They hope their discovery will lead to better understanding of the impact these colossal events might have on the atmospheres of exoplanets, and their chances of being habitable.Research Article: Callingham et al.12:28 Research HighlightsVideo footage of a devastating earthquake provides a first-of-its-kind glimpse of a dramatic ground rupture — plus, a flock of comets seen outside our Solar System.Research Highlight: Single video camera tells the story of deadly Myanmar quakeResearch Highlight: A host of ‘exocomets' swarms a distant star14:29 The rare genetic variants that may increase the risk of ADHDAttention-deficit/Hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a condition that affects around 1 in 20 young people, but its underlying causes are not fully understood. Now, a team of researchers show that three rare genetic variants are implicated in an increased risk of ADHD, which may play a role in the neurons involved in dopamine signalling. While this work provides a better understanding of the complex genetics at play, the authors caution more research is needed to unpick the complex interplay other factors involved in ADHD.Research Article: Demontis et al.18:41 Briefing ChatA high-resolution digital map for Roman roads, and how speaking more than one language could slow brain ageing.Nature: ‘Google Maps' for Roman roads reveals vast extent of ancient networkNature: Want a younger brain?

About the Guest(s): Dr. Kristin Hieshetter is the host of Functional Health Radio and an experienced professional in the realm of functional health and wellness. With a career centered on exploring the intricate relationships between health, environment, and lifestyle, Dr. Kristin has a passion for diving into complex topics that often have significant impacts on public health. She is known for her ability to synthesize scientific data and communicate it effectively to her audience, as demonstrated by her willingness to explore controversial topics related to health. Episode Summary: In this eye-opening episode of Functional Health Radio, Dr. Kristin Hieshetter delves into the controversial topic surrounding the potential links between Tylenol (acetaminophen) and autism. She emphasizes the importance of approaching the topic with an open mind and provides an in-depth analysis of scientific literature that proposes a correlation between acetaminophen usage, especially during pregnancy and early childhood, and neurodevelopmental disorders such as autism. Dr. Kristin urges listeners to consider the broader implications of these findings within the context of environmental and genetic factors, as well as the role of detoxification pathways in maintaining neurological health. Dr. Kristin reviews several peer-reviewed studies that have explored the biochemical impact of acetaminophen on the body's glutathione detoxification pathway and its subsequent impact on the brain's development. Tylenol's interference with the endocannabinoid system raises concerns about its effects on neuroplasticity and immune function. This episode takes a particularly deep dive into diverse studies from as early as 2010 and elaborates on historical patterns observed with Tylenol sales and autism rates, emphasizing the need for further discussion and research on the use of such common medications during critical developmental periods. Dr. Kristin calls for continued research into alternative approaches and the importance of compassionate conversations in finding solutions. Key Takeaways: Acetaminophen and Developmental Health: Dr. Kristin highlights studies suggesting that acetaminophen might interfere with brain development pathways, particularly affecting the endocannabinoid system. Detoxification Concerns: Tylenol is noted to inhibit the body's glutathione detoxification pathways, which are crucial for brain detoxification and overall neurological health. Environmental and Genetic Factors: The discussion includes the multifaceted nature of autism's causes, pointing to environmental toxins, genetic factors, and medications like Tylenol as potential contributors. Historical Correlations: Historical analyses demonstrate discordant trends between acetaminophen availability and autism rates, suggesting societal changes in medication usage may impact public health. Urgency of Open Discussions: Dr. Kristin emphasizes the need for open dialogue on such sensitive topics to develop safer health practices and policies based on informed scientific understanding. Notable Quotes: "Tylenol and marijuana might not be the best idea if you want to have a healthy brain." "The beginning of the rapid increase in autism around 1980 coincides with the rapid increase in asthma, both of which coincide with the rapid increase in the use of acetaminophen." "Tylenol decreases our detox glutathione, particularly in the liver, kidneys, and lungs, hence the asthma." "Acetaminophen would likely interfere with the child's ability to dispose of the aluminum." "This is not an easy topic. It's not. But it's an important one." Resources: Books: "Johnson and Johnson: No More Tears" by Gardner Harris Articles/Studies: "Can Autism be Triggered by Acetaminophen Activation of the Endocannaboid System?" (Acta Neurobiologiae Experimentalis 2010) Empirical Data Confirm Autism Symptoms Related to Aluminum and Acetaminophen Exposure (Entropy, 2012) "Evidence that Increased Acetaminophen in Genetically Vulnerable Children Appears to be a Major Cause of the Epidemics of Autism, Attention Deficit with Hyperactivity and Asthma" (Journal of Restorative Medicine 2013) Medications Discussed: Tylenol (Acetaminophen) In this challenging episode, Dr. Kristin Hieshetter invites listeners to consider new perspectives on common medical practices and their impacts on health, urging further exploration and dialogue. Tune in to gain a deeper understanding and stay informed about evolving health discussions.

ADHD Support isn't One-Size-Fits-All — Here's how to find what works for your child.This week on the podcast, we're joined by our Naturopath Sarah Worboys to explore a topic that's becoming increasingly important (and confusing) for families: how to best support children with ADHD.Rates of diagnosis and medication use are rising rapidly, particularly among adolescents and many parents are left wondering if their child will benefit from medication and if there are natural and complementary options worth exploring. In this episode, we have an honest and grounded conversation that bridges the gap between mainstream treatment and naturopathic support.Whether your child has just received a diagnosis, is already on medication, or you're still exploring what ADHD support could look like — this episode will help you feel clearer, more confident, and better equipped to make decisions that feel aligned with your values.In This Episode, We Cover:Why ADHD diagnoses and prescriptions have become more common and what this means for families.The benefits and challenges of common ADHD medications, and when they may be most helpful.How nutrition, supplements, and gut health play a role in supporting kids with ADHD.Why a whole-child, holistic approach is key when it comes to supporting kids with ADHD.Practical naturopathic strategies to support attention, behaviour, and emotional regulation (even alongside medication).How we can better advocate for our kids in a system that often takes a one-size-fits-all approach.

When Brandon and Whitney Cawood's three-year-old son was expelled from daycare for aggressive behavior, they faced a crossroads that would change not only their lives but potentially millions of others. Rather than accepting the psychiatric diagnoses being pushed on them, they discovered something shocking: their son's severe behavioral issues weren't psychological at all—they were chemical reactions to synthetic food dyes hiding in his daily allergy medication and antibiotics.Within 48 hours of removing these petroleum-based chemicals from his diet, they met their real son for the first time. This revelation launched them on a journey that would lead to creating the documentary "To Dye For," building a community of nearly one million parents, and influencing legislation across multiple states.To Dye For Documentary Dr. Roger McFillin / Radically Genuine WebsiteYouTube @RadicallyGenuineDr. Roger McFillin (@DrMcFillin) / XSubstack | Radically Genuine | Dr. Roger McFillinInstagram @radicallygenuineContact Radically GenuineConscious Clinician CollectivePLEASE SUPPORT OUR PARTNERS15% Off Pure Spectrum CBD (Code: RadicallyGenuine)10% off Lovetuner click here

He explains how both conditions stem from nervous system dysregulation but manifest in different ways. Dr. Ebel shares his concerns about medication approaches that only mask symptoms while introducing side effects, and offers his perspective on addressing the root neurological causes through chiropractic care that targets subluxation and vagus nerve function. Drawing from his personal experience with ADHD, he outlines how proper neurological balance can transform these conditions from struggles to strengths.[00:00:00] - Introduction and OverviewIntroduction to the "raging bull" vs "drunken bull" conceptsOverview of medication limitations and side effectsThe true root causes of ADHD/ADD patterns[00:05:00] - Understanding the Neurological PerspectiveCritique of standard diagnostic approachesChallenge to the chemical imbalance theoryDr. Ebel's personal experience with "raging bull" ADHDHow nervous system dysregulation affects behavior[00:12:00] - The Two Types ExplainedCharacteristics of the "raging bull" hyperactive typeDescription of the "drunken bull" inattentive typeThe role of subluxation in nervous system disruptionHow types can transform into each other over time[00:15:00] - Root Triggers and Developmental PatternsImpact of prenatal stress and birth interventionsThe cascade effect on immune function and gut healthHow sympathetic dominance affects neurological processingThe connection between motor coordination and focus[00:18:00] - Assessment and Care ApproachNeurological insight scans for measuring dysfunctionCustomized adjustment protocols for each typeResources for parents seeking more informationPX docs approach to transforming struggles to strengths-- DETAILS & REGISTRATION FOR THE FREE MAY AUTISM SUMMIT Follow us on Socials: Instagram: @pxdocs Facebook: Dr. Tony Ebel & The PX Docs Network Youtube: The PX Docs For more information, visit PXDocs.com to read informative articles about the power of Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care.

During this episode, Dr Scott and Elena are talking about parenting children with ADHD (Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder).

The Bible teaches us that the heart is the wellspring of life, and even in the face of biological challenges, we can help our children grow in character. Listen, rate, and share!

Prevalence of pharmacotherapy for attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder and prescription stimulant misuse: A national study of US college students Addiction This is an observational study using cross-sectional data from the American College Health Association–National College Health Assessment III. It measured the association between university-level prevalence of attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) medication treatment and prevalence of prescription stimulant misuse (PSM) among college students.  Among university students in the United States, there appears to be a positive association between attending universities with a greater prevalence of ADHD medication treatment and risk of prescription stimulant misuse (PSM). This study provides further support for the possibility that ADHD medication treatment prevalence is a risk factor for PSM.   Read this issue of the ASAM Weekly Subscribe to the ASAM Weekly Visit ASAM

It's a common trope: a bunch of kids go to a birthday party, eat some cake, and suddenly they all start acting out and bouncing off the walls. This idea, that sugar causes kids to become hyperactive, has been around for generations. But do we actually have evidence to support it? Could there be something else going on? And how might sugar intake impact the brain of folks with ADHD? Join us, two Registered Dietitians, as we dig deeper into this topic and examine whether or not sugar intake is actually linked to hyperactivity. Want to support the show and get bonus episodes?

You might be wondering, “Melissa, how am I supposed to find the energy to reawaken my imagination and then actually bring my ideas to life—for my business, my family, or even just for myself?” I know the feeling well. It can seem like I'm on one wavelength, while so many moms out there in business are on another. My heart's wish for you is simple: to wake up each day with renewed energy, excited enough about your vision to leap into action—maybe even brave enough to go live on social media! Imagine a world where your passion for your business sustains and energizes you. That's been my mission since I wrote Fertile Imagination, yet I know many of you are still searching for the spark, still yearning for a way to get out of bed with fresh ideas and the energy to make them real. This is why, in this minisode series, I'm stepping away from my usual interview format to focus on the essentials of health. Without good health, there's nothing I—or anyone else—can say that will magically give you the energy you need to bring your best ideas into the world. In this bite-sized series, I'm diving into four pillars of health that I discuss in Fertile Imagination, each crucial for reclaiming your energy and sparking your imagination: Nourishing Food: There's a profound connection between what you eat and how you feel. Nourishing your body with whole, nutrient-dense foods fuels your vitality. When you choose real food over processed options, you'll find yourself feeling more energized and focused. Energizing Movement: Adding regular movement into your day isn't just for physical health; it also invigorates your mind and boosts creativity. Even short bursts of activity can enhance your clarity, mood, and energy, empowering you to face challenges with renewed vigor. Restorative Sleep: Quality sleep is non-negotiable for keeping up your energy and mental sharpness. Restorative sleep allows your body and mind to recharge, boosting your productivity and creativity. By prioritizing sleep, you're setting yourself up for success each day. Emotional Unloading: Managing stress is essential to freeing up energy. Whether it's through mindfulness, journaling, or a quiet moment to yourself, releasing emotional weight helps you approach your work with clarity and resilience. In last week's minisode, I introduced the topic of “Health Scares” and shared a story about Gil, who experienced a career-stopping stroke ten years ago. If you missed it, be sure to catch up. Today, I want to explore the idea of “fake vs. real food.” It's baffling, really—many of us, myself included, know better but still struggle to make the healthiest choices. Remember, you're in control of your health, and that's a message I want to reach your kids, too. I'm also extending a special invitation to my listeners for a limited-time, free 30-minute Energy Audit Session. During this call, we'll take a closer look at where you stand in terms of food, movement, sleep, and mental health. Why? Because your health is the foundation of your success. I believe that by sharing my journey with you, I can empower you to prioritize yours. This energy audit is especially for moms who want to make today their January 1—a fresh start. Let's build the health foundation that will help you pursue your wealth and happiness with renewed energy. Sign up today: https://www.melissallarena.com/sessions/ Side note: the ingrediant that I do mention in this minisode is linked to these things so be sure to have a listen especially if you have a ton of Halloween candy around your house. Allergic Reactions: Some people experience allergic responses to this additive, especially those with asthma or aspirin sensitivities. Reactions can include hives, itching, and, in rare cases, difficulty breathing. Hyperactivity in Children: Studies have shown that this and other artificial food dyes may be associated with increased hyperactivity in children, especially those with ADHD. This has led to calls for its removal from certain products aimed at children. Migraines: This additive has been linked to migraines in some individuals. People with a sensitivity to this dye may experience headaches or migraines after consuming foods or drinks containing it. Potential Hormonal Disruption: Some research suggests that artificial food dyes, including this one, may interfere with hormone function, although more studies are needed to confirm this effect. Digestive Issues: Sensitive individuals might experience digestive symptoms such as bloating, cramps, or nausea after consuming products containing this additive. Oh to add insult to injury this ingredient requires a warning label if included in food in other parts of the world. Book mark this episode and get educated around this.

Managing hyperactivity isn't easy, and finding strategies to navigate it can feel overwhelming. Hyperactive children often struggle with impulse control, emotional regulation, and focus, which can make daily activities feel chaotic and frustrating. It can leave parents and teachers feeling exhausted, constantly managing behavior while searching for solutions that truly help.With the right strategies, it's possible to create a more structured, supportive environment that promotes calm, improves focus, and strengthens emotional resilience. So join me in this episode as we explore practical tips for parents and teachers to navigate the challenges of hyperactivity.

Growing up as a Black girl with undiagnosed ADHD, Kayla Sanders learned very early that getting into trouble was not an option. Kayla was imaginative, playful, and extremely bright. She was also hyperactive, which was occasionally mistaken for disobedience. One incident in particular in the first grade left a lasting mark on Kayla. From then on out, Kayla did everything she could to avoid causing trouble for her hard-working, loving mom. She pushed down her hyperactivity and masked her symptoms for years. Then, during the pandemic, Kayla was finally diagnosed with ADHD.  Join Kayla and host Laura Key's chat on ADHD and masking, and the added pressure that comes from racial bias.Related resourcesTo be Black in America with a learning disabilityBias in school discipline: When the teacher says your child is “acting out”, from Opportunity GapADHD and rejection sensitive dysphoria (RSD)Timestamps(01:10) Kayla's pandemic ADHD diagnosis story(06:53) Kayla's childhood behavior(09:45) The pressure to mask ADHD as a Black woman(13:56) Covering up “mistakes” in the classroom(15:35) Kayla's relationship with her mom(20:11) Cultural masking, and the intersection of ADHD and race To get a transcript of this show and check out more episodes, visit the ADHD Aha! podcast page at Understood.Want to share your “aha” moment?

One of my kids has pretty severe ADHD. When he was younger, it showed up a lot in the form of hyperactivity and impulse control. The challenges have evolved as he's gotten older. Today, I'm talking about my experience of parenting a kid with ADHD and sharing what I've learned along the way.You'll Learn:Why ADHD is about way more than behaviorsWhat it's like to experience our modern world with an ADHD brainHow societal expectations for order can clash with the spontaneous and creative nature of those with ADHD.What ADHD brains need and how to give it to your kidI'm not an expert on ADHD. I'm a parent who's been there, and I've helped lots of other parents navigate life with a neurodivergent kid, too. Listen in to learn strategies you can use to help your kid and work with their unique brain.-----------------------------------Rethinking ADHDMy goal is to help you understand ADHD more, because the more you understand, the more you can help your child understand. The more you understand what's going on for them, the more compassion you'll have and then the less critical you will be. When someone is neurotypical, it simply means that their brain is developing in a typical way, they're hitting common milestones, etc. With a neurodivergent brain, a child will hit milestones at a different pace, and different challenges will come up. Their development is diverging from the typical path.It's important that you don't compare your child's development with their peers who are neurotypical. Instead, you want to compare your child's development to themselves - their past self to their present self and their future self. The sooner you're able to recognize that they're on their own timetable, the less frustrated you'll be when you see some of the traits and behaviors that come up with ADHD. The ADHD ExperienceThe main three features of ADHD are attention deficit, impulse control issues and hyperactivity. Imagine being in a really crowded room, and everyone around you is talking all at once. No one's talking to you, but you're hearing everybody talking. Then, somebody suddenly asks you what the person next to you just said. You would have no idea, because you weren't listening to that one person. You were listening to the entire room speak. When there's a lot of stimulation, noise or activity, an ADHD brain can't figure out what it's supposed to be paying attention to. This is the “attention deficit” piece. Overstimulation is very overwhelming for someone with ADHD. Attention deficit can also look like someone putting their attention on the “wrong” thing. And it's difficult for an ADHD brain to change direction once it gets going. It's like a train stuck rolling down a track, but it's not the track that we want it to be on. We want them to slow down or change direction, but the braking system is very difficult to activate. Impulse control is also common with ADHD. These kids might have more trouble with delaying gratification, procrastinating, understanding how time works or creating a plan or sequence of events.Hyperactivity can also be thought of as hyper-arousal. In daily life, you might notice behaviors like:Missing details or making careless mistakesNot staying on taskSeeming to not hear when spoken toTrouble organizing tasks or creating orderLosing things easilyBeing easily distracted or forgetful in daily activitiesRestlessness, getting out of their seat, always on the goTalking excessively, interrupting or blurting out answers in schoolTrouble waiting to take turnsAvoiding tasks that take a lot of mental...

In this episode, we challenge the modern trend of Autism and ADHD comorbid diagnosis. We will use children from Kanner and Asperger to show these so-called ADHD symptoms are simply parts of the Autistic Phenotype. However, society finds it easier to lump these two conditions together, and we question why. We review both, the inattentive criteria and the hyperactivity and impulsivity of ADHD and explain when the Autistic phenotype exhibit these conditions.The criteria for ADHD are downstream behaviors seen across multiple reasons and act as a collect-all. I did not say ADHD does not exist, but I do say Autism and ADHD existing simultaneously seems unlikely if you really understand the phenotypes. Might it just be easier for society to lump these together instead of challenging the differences?B.3 and Inattention are complete opposites. Hyperactivity and Impulsivity can show up when anyone is in the wrong or horrible environment.Autism and ADHD https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8918663/Leo Kanner http://www.autismtruths.org/pdf/Autistic%20Disturbances%20of%20Affective%20Contact%20-%20Leo%20Kanner.pdfHans Asperger https://psycnet.apa.org/record/1992-97284-0020:00 Intro; Brief Note on how environmental signals such as electromagnetic fields (EMF, i.e., Light) informs the genes on how to respond, and how disease manifests2:51 Autism and ADHD; Neurodiversity; and some problems in society7:58 Core of Autism- B.3, and Donald Triplett example; B.2 and Social Communication13:27 Autistic Phenotypes19:01 ADHD Phenotypes21:41 Specifiers and Lumping Contrasting Phenotypes33:18 Medication and ODD (Oppositional Defiant Disorder) Rant35:42 Autism conundrum with ADHD38:45 Reviews/Ratings and Contact InfoHopp: https://www.hopp.bio/fromthespectrumX: https://twitter.com/rps47586email: info.fromthespectrum@gmail.com

Rob is joined by music powerhouse Will.i.am in this episode. Will.i.am shares his unique perspective on the evolution of music, the impact of technology, and the importance of personal data ownership. Will.i.am also talks about the potential of AI in the music industry and emphasises the need for individuals to be philanthropic and proactive in making a difference. Will.i.am's insights on ADHD and the education system challenge conventional thinking and inspire listeners to embrace their own superpowers. Will.i.am Reveals: The music industry is on the brink of a new renaissance, with AI poised to disrupt traditional recording, touring, and publishing. Social media has democratised access to wealth and success but has also amplified hate and negativity due to algorithmic biases. Personal data is the new gold, and individuals need to own and control their data through "data banks" to leverage their own AI. Being philanthropic and proactive is crucial for making a positive impact, beyond just writing or singing about issues. Embracing creativity as a currency and learning from constructive criticism are key to personal growth and success. ADHD is often misunderstood, and the education system should focus on nurturing individual strengths rather than enforcing conformity. Hyperactivity and attention disorders can be superpowers if channelled correctly, and society should recognise and polish these diamonds. BEST MOMENTS "You have to go out there and be philanthropic as well. So that's why I went back to my neighbourhood and started a school, an after-school program in 2008." "Creativity is my currency. I'm rich creatively. I may not have money now. But as soon as I get these ideas out, shit, these motherfuckers are going to grow." "I think ADHD is not the problem for the person that they claim has ADHD. It's the problem for the person that doesn't know how to, you know, reach a hyperactive person and hyperactivity is a superpower." "If you're not taking the time to polish certain rocks to realise that they're diamonds, you're going to miss out on a lot of fucking diamonds." "There's some truth to what people say, you have to be self-aware" "We know data's gold, and we know the companies that are leveraging your data, data monarchies. And they do such a good job of it that you don't even know the power of your own data."

Watching your child struggle is pretty much the worst. Not knowing what to do about it is more than icing on the doo-doo cake. I've got your back, mama! In this episode of Motherhood in ADHD, I dive into the rollercoaster of emotions and challenges of parenting a struggling child. When your child needs help, but you don't know where to begin, this episode is for you. From dealing with overwhelming chaos to understanding the unique dynamics in a family affected by ADHD, here are my key tips to help you navigate the stress. So, buckle up, mama, because we're about to unpack the struggle bus and turn it into the ambulance you need for support during a crisis. In this episode, I'm sharing the five essential C's for helping your struggling child. First up, we zoom in on crisis management and understanding what's on fire before taking action. Then, we delve into the critical aspect of self-care for moms because, let's be honest, we can't pour from an empty unicorn mug. We also explore caring for our kids, making sure they find their own spaces to shine and thrive. Plus, we emphasize the importance of building strong connections and boosting our kids' confidence, because every little victory matters. So, put on your driving gloves, grab a cup (or 40 oz travel mug) of coffee, and get ready to drive into a world of empathy, support, and practical advice on nurturing your struggling child. If you want to join us in person, we're discussing parenting WITH ADHD in March & April in Successful Mama Meetups. Because among the chaos, you're already a fantastic mom who's trying her best, and you're not alone in this bumpy journey. I'm hosting a new parenting workshop series to raise money for my child's Gifted & Talented program, which lost funding last month.  Thanks for supporting the kids and their teachers: patriciasung.com/gt Find links to everything mentioned in this episode & read the transcript here: https://www.patriciasung.com/podcast/episode-219-parenting-struggling-child-with-adhd-how-to-help-kid-in-crisis
